[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7217766, member: 6777052"] [COLOR=blue]It was Mušḫuššu and he some messages to deliver. One was from Tippy, to say that he was still looking for The Slaven of Estramos and if they came across any clues, to please let him know. The other was from Marduk, the god of Babylon, to the effect that they needed to get a move on with the Bar-De-Door thing because the fate of the worlds rested on their shoulders and things were getting a bit iffy. Tasha explained the situation and what they were planning to do. "So, let me get this right," repeated Mušḫuššu, "You're going to combine into a five-fold entity of pure thought that can move freely around, is undetectable, can foresee the future, and has the power to destroy the minds of whoever you take a dislike to?" "Since you put it like that, yes." "And you're just going to wander into the palace of the sorcerer king and take out Ming Vahz and Bar-De-Door, just like that?" "Yes ..." "You don't think they might have seers who might be expecting you, and send soldiers to slay your unguarded bodies? "Well, we ..." "Amateurs," snorted Mušḫuššu. "Haven't any of you thought about using the [I]Rope Trick[/I] spell? "Er, I think I have a scroll somewhere ..." offered Goatee, rummaging in his [I]Bag of Book Holding[/I]. "I found it in the library in Castle Feece." Mušḫuššu said "I suggest you use it, then," and left as abruptly as he had arrived. Goatee cast the Rope Trick spell and, as reaction, all the cacti in Mirzak's tower suddenly stopped glowing. Then everyone, including Rikus, climbed up the rope and they shut the trapdoor to seal themselves off from the mundane world. "We will be safe here, but only for one hour," Goatee warned them.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ff5050]Here we are again. It seemed easier that time. Have we got a passenger? I brought Coda along. In case of trouble. "Hi," said Coda. "Are we famous yet?" Not yet. Are we ready? [I]Stealthy[/I] Let's go! There's the palace, [I]there[/I]. Grand, isn't it? That's Bar-De-Door. [I]There[/I]. Oh-Oh.
