(RP) Dangerous Legacy

[Knight Otu]

(Didn't the king send a priest along?)

Sel thanks Krueger before taking the phial, then says "Let's continue." and does so.

((GOOD LORD, I'd forgotten all about Devin! He's got a couple levels of cleric and fighter in him. Not much healing but enough... we hope, since Krueger only has one more potion))

Liam nods at Sel and Kreuger as they address their wounds.

"Let us keep moving, we need to press on, if you two are able."

He puts actions to words and starts towards the exit, slowing as he approaches it, sticking to the shadows and trying to remain unobtrusive as he peers out to see what lies beyond.

Devin prays quietly for a moment then reaches out and touches Sel on the s houlder. The elf feels a warmth flow through his body and his wounds begin to close. ((Healed 12 points of damage) TThe group leaves the room out of the next corridor, which turns and twists for nearly a hundred yards before opening up into another room.

This room has small shrines built throughout devoted to long dead heroes. Shrines along the walls and in the center of the room stand surrounded by paintings and sculptures of heroic deeds. Sadly, the crypts containing the long dead heroes appear to have been invaded. The room is filled with rubble and debris of all kinds, scattered corpses with skin stretched tight from the ages.

Liam eyes the corpses ousted from their coffins warily.

"What do you think? More of the restless dead to impede our progress? Or is Movak searching for something in all these tombs? And more importantly, has he found it?"

 

[Vendetta]

"ee prolly jest lookin' fer more fodder ta raise against us!" Krueger grunts.

"You bring up an interesting point, Liam." Jaeden says thoughtfully. "I wonder if there is something in these catacombs that interests Movak that he is searching for."

"M...mmm....maybe he found it already. Thass why he's doing this ceremony, maybe?" Gemble says, visibly shaken.

 

[Knight Otu]

"It may be both." Sel says as he surveys the desecrated room. "Though I fear Gemble may be right. If Movak was searching something, he might even have found it when he first came here to 'slay the undead abominations' and then 'sealed the catacombs.'" Sel continues, wary that new undead fiends may spring at them at any moment.

 

[Vendetta]

((OOC: Knight, make a spot check for Sel, please))

 

[Knight Otu]

(Spot check (1d20+1=12))

 

[Vendetta]

Sel steps into the room, eyes wide as he takes in everything he can see in hopes that some corpse does not raise and catch him unawares. As he passes by one skeleton, draped with dried and taunt flesh that had long since pulled away from the bone beneath in several places, the elf notices that near the neck is something... but the moment that he realizes that it is a dart, he already hears the "phfft" of darts shooting out of the side wall at him.

((Knight, I'll need a reflex save for Sel, please))
