Redclaw's Eyes of the Lich Queen

20—Bregan
19—Alexa
18—Talas
17—Dragon <--ending here
15—Drekhad
--Chevri
12—Blackscales
7—Hedowin <--Starting here

Hedowin, frustrated with his disappearing arcane might, once again delays to see what happens.

Bregan moves to stand beside the altar and fires another arrow at the dragon, missing badly.

Alexa moves in front of Talas and attacks the dragon, but fails to work her dagger between its scales.

Talas steps to stand beside Alexa and channels his final spell of the day, battering the diminutive dragon with his flail and sapping some of its energy.

Despite the effects of the spell, the dragon flies away from Alexa and Talas, and loops back to disappear down the well, shouting in [sblock=draconic] Close it! Now! [/sblock] as it goes. Alexa, leaning over the well, is able to see the bottom close just as the dragon flies past it.

Drekhad and Chevri can adjust their actions if they choose.

Drekhad will run up to the well and yell down... "Whoever is closing this forsaken thing, you should know that we'll be down for you one way or another."
 

Even as she began to work her magics, Chevri saw the dragon disappear- Again... She gave a soft growl of frustration, then swept a glance around the group, stopping as she gazed fixedly at the "door" where the other blackscale had fled. "Well, do we stay and try to flush out whatever we can, or do we run? I have almost no energy left, and almost all of us are hurt..."
 

Talas

Talas curses mightily at the dragon for running away once more. "We need to rest, we are all hurting. I am also out of spells. We need to rest, clear our minds and heal our wounds. We could do it here if we can find a defensible position. Who knows what may find us outside. We've been lucky so far out there I would think."

Hedowin nods at the small shifters words.

"Discretion is the better part of valor. I would agree that it would be best to strategically withdraw and recover."

He then pauses.

"But, right after I check the two downed lizards for any magical items."

Shaking his head, he bemoans his poor spell preparation this morning. "Tomorrow, nothing but offensive magicks......."

[sblock=OOC] Cast detect magic and scan the two lizards, taking any item that presents an aura. [/sblock]
 

Drekhad's angry shout goes unanswered, but Hedowin's spell produces a few interesting results. The lizardfolk by the northern wall is carrying a potion vial, and the other one is carrying a wand. He also catches another glow out of the corner of his eye coming from the smaller room to the west.

Following that glow he discovers a red silk hammock strung across one side of the chamber, and gold glittering among the treasures and totems displayed on shelves throughout the room. A suit of golden cermonial half-plate, made to accomodate a large tailed humanoid, occupies an armor stand in one corner. A silver crown etched with a draconic motif rests atop a large marble sphere. A gnarled wooden staff bound with feathers and mummified animal feet leans against the far wall. A shallow bowl filled with green liquid stands on a short pedestal, and a spear rests amidst the collection. This spear is the item that registers as magical to Hedowin's spell-granted sight.

"Before we hastily make an exit, can one of you grab that spear over there while i gather a potion vial and wand from the downed lizard clergy?"

He points into the room near the hammock.

If no one answers, he hustles over to the spear and grabs it after he secures the wand and potion vial.

"I am now more than ready and willing to leave this place for the day."

He shrugs.

"If we take them from here, where will we put them? As much as I don't want to run into one of these damn things wearing that gold plate armor, its a tad heavy to cart around, plus it makes our retreat that much more dangerous. I don't suppose one of you happens to have a portable hole like thing? My professor at University showed us one once, and it was quite interesting....and would be quite useful at this time."
 

"I do have a handy haversack, but I'm afraid the spear and armor aren't well suited for it. We could probably fit that crown and marble sphere, though - they look like they should be worth something, even if simply as historical artefacts."
