There's this fragile pillar-within-a-pillar, surrounded by evil black goo. There's a shattered crystal statue. There's a cage containing an mystical diagram and an odd congealed clue. And there's lots of arcane formulae floating around.Butthead: Let's... break something.Beavis: Yeah! Um, okay--I break the statue! DM: It's already broken. It's actually a crystal corpse.Butthead: Like, a dead guy? Cool! I pick up his head and throw it at Beavis.Beavis: What? No way!Butthead: I gave you head.Beavis: Huh huh.Butthead: Huh huh.DM: What do you do now? Look at the formulas, or the arcane diagrams?Butthead: Uh.... "words, words" huh huh, "words"Beavis: This sucks! Let's break something!Butthead: What else can I smash?DM: Well, the cage is made of metal. As for the pillars, the inner pillar is rock while the outer pillar is glass. An evil-looking liquid-Beavis: He said glass! Smash the pillar, Butthead!Butthead: Yeah.DM: -it contains a really nasty-looking oil, and-Butthead: I smash the pillar.DM: ...okay, it explodes, and covers Beavis with burning evil goo.Beavis: AHHHH! AHHHH!Butthead: You're on... fire. Huh huh.Beavis: AHHHH! huh huh AHHHHH! IT BURNS! huh huhButthead: huh huh. Burning is cool.-zPS: Not meant as an insult! This latest update just reminded me how often adventuring parties solve problems by busting things apart. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
