Asks Talon=No gold- only the satisfaction of completing it and proving yourselves worthy.=Everyone looks at the wall like someone stepped in dog manure and just walked on a new rug.  “Can we leave then?” asks Xen.=Through that door.=As they leave Pebbles looks over her shoulder.  Through the wall there is a shadowy image of a floating Minotaur head or skull.   A demi-lich!The darkened room is empty except for the ceiling which has a round door.  Not sure what will happen when they open that door and in great need of rest, they sleep here for a while.On the surface, Pelor is invited to sleep within the towers with the lizardfolk.  He declines as he goes to sleep in the tower.The next day, the door is opened and the room fills with water quickly.  They purposely leave the door open to drown the entire dungeon as they swim to the bright surface which is a mere forty feet away.  They are within the walled off area of the temple.  With spells carefully chosen before, they all leave using Wind Walking.The lizardfolk watch them leave in silence.   A lone seagull flies over and lands beside the leader.  Slowly it enlarges, molting and growing scales.  Soon a Large Bronze Dragon stands beside him.“The secret is safe then.” It says as a matter fact and in draconic.“Yes.  The Dragonmarks are safe.  Your secret remains safe.”“Good.”</blockquote>
