Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 882242" data-attributes="member: 114">They decide to investigate the upper floors before going all through the cellars, and so they proceed up through the kitchen, through the main hall and into what appears to be a music room, filled with fine artworks and a beautiful golden harp. In one corner of the room is a spiral stair which must ascend through a tower and lead to the upper levels of the castle. Cautiously they take it, still invisible.The next floor looks like a giant nursery – it has a huge wooden rocking horse, a giant ball and building blocks. From the stairwell they can just make out ogre-sized feet laying on the floor behind some of the toys. Drawing their weapons, the creep into the room, round the giant blocks – and see a toddler, built to an inhumanly large scale. It is nine foot from the soles of its feet to the crown of its head – or at least it would be if the crown of its head was there… but something has cracked open this giant childs head and feasted upon its brains…Trying to put the horror of this scene out of their minds, especially the bewildered and frightened expression on what remains of the toddlers face, they retreat back towards the stairwell. Upwards further. One more turn of the spiral staircase and a giant-sized arch leads into a vast chamber with a huge bed in the middle of it, and an appropriately sized giant asleep on the bed. Dala quickly casts fly on himself, as does Arilyn, and the party creep into the room. Arilyn gets a high vantage point in the room, and hisses a warning – it is a giantess on the bed and she too is dead, with her head cracked open.A hidden door to a study behind them is thrown open and the air in the room ripples crazily as a piercing scream fills all their heads; but they remain strong in spirit and throw off the stunning effect of the mind blast – long enough to hear the creepy mental voice of a mind flayer command the cloud giant that stands in front of it “Don’t forget… strike to subdue”...</blockquote>
