Dreadnought lifts one of his slightly oversized, three-fingered hands and thrusts it at the spot he'd run into thin air a few moments ago, to see if the 'wall' was already gone.
 

Seeing the warforged reach out towards to see if the wall of force was still present, he shrugs and grins slightly.

"Oh, that. Yes, I dismissed it a little bit ago."

"For a moment, I thought you meant that I should disintegrate or destroy one of these walls in order to gain entry to the interior."

He shakes his head.

"Already tried that," pointing off to one side around the corner from the door,"Ran into solid adamantine plating that is connected to some source of electricity -- nearly lost a couple of my men."

You notice a chunk of the rock-like wall material missing and a spot of dark-colored metal exposed. It crackles with energy.

Turning to his men, he begins to speak with them again.

"Once the symbol is gone, what else do you think is waiting for us."

"Well, dat mechanic'l lock won't be easy tah pick -- I dunt even tink I've got tools big 'nough tah fit in it."

"Right. Right," says the robed man, lost in thought,"Plus I sense a few other magical effects upon it as well."
 

Morph casts a minor magic, and examines the lock as well.

[sblock=ooc] So the wall of force is gone? If my detect magic is still up, I'll use that, if not, I'll use another one. I'll examine the lock as well, using spellcraft to id any spells on it.[/sblock]
 

[sblock=Morph]
You cast another detect magic, combined with your spellcraft skills, show that the door is protected with the Symbol of Death, an Arcane Lock, and you also notice a stored Greater Shout.

[/sblock]
 

[sblock=ooc]Is the wall of force still there?[/sblock]

Morph crosses his arms, "There is another symbol of death, the door is arcane locked and it also holds a greater shout spell. Now do you trust us?"
 


Meanwhile, at the Hall of Justice....

The robed man turns once again and faces the group.

"It is not a matter of trust, as you have demonstrated some ability to understand the magical arts."


Placing his hand upon his chin,"It is more a question of what your continued interest in this door is."

"As I recall, you are on a search and rescue mission to find some lost persons of interest, and as you can see, they could not be located behind this door, as it has not been opened in countless millenia."


"If your intentions are purely altruistic, then we have no quarrel, and, as a scholar, I appreciate help as much as anyone else, but since I have only known you for a span of minutes now, I have no sure way of knowing your true intentions."

Looking each of the members of your group over, he continues,"This search-and-rescue mission of yours, do you linger here because you are at an impass? Has the trail run cold? Since you are standing here before me, I can only assume that the people you are looking for once passed through here."

"I have been here several times in the past, so if you were to provide some information, I am sure I could point you in the right direction....."
 


Darv

Darv nods as the man speaks. "You are right. We should move on and leave these men to their business. Since they have not seen those that we seek." Then he turns to his companions. "Where should we try next? Perhaps a different level of this tower or should we return to the ground and search elsewhere?"
