The Psionicle, Part III

[Sollir Furryfoot]

Sahgrim will ready his crossbow to fire anything hostile past the door, trying not to hit his companions..."Ready."

 

[Hand of Vecna]

*readies his crossbow*

 

[Dalamar]

Syld also readies his crossbow.
"Ready."

 

[dkoz]

Desimus reloads his crossbow and leaves the force shield in place.

"I'm ready."

 

[Jarval]

Jansson scoops up the crystal wedges and puts them in his backpack. Reluctantly he decides that the polearm is a bit big to lug around.

At the sound of everyone readying themselves by the door, Jansson moves over there with his sword in hand.

"I'm ready."

 

[GnomeWorks]

Seeing that you are all ready, Osius takes a breath, and opens the door as gently as he can.

Desimus' torchlight flickers out into the tunnel, revealing - nothing.

A tunnel, larger than the one you are in, lies in front of you. It goes left, and right. It appears to be empty, and only the soft glow of torchlight fills it. You can barely make out the far wall, and it appears to be around 10 feet away.

 

[Zhure]

Osius fans out into the hallway to cover the rest of the troupe's egress from the hidden door.

"Everyone try to remember where this is. Left or right?"

OOC: still have darkvision up from the powerstone.

 

[Jarval]

Jansson shrugs.

"Don't know. Let's try left this time."

 

[dkoz]

"Left sounds good. I am going to see if I can detect any magic in the area to make sure we don't have any surprises of an arcane nature. So, don't be surprised by the interaction of our power fields."

Desimus casts Detect Magic and sweeps the area to see if there are any arcane auras in the vicinity other than his own equipment.

 

[GnomeWorks]

As you meander out into the hallway, you take in your new local surroundings. As you do, you notice something familiar in the wall across from the other secret door. It appears that the same type of thing is in the wall opposite it. It appears to be made out of the same material as the previous door and tunnel were - primarily stone, but covered and plated with lead.

However, this one stands out slightly more - it would appear that this one has been opened recently, forcefully. As though by someone who didn't know what they were doing, when they were opening it.

---

As you begin heading left, or to examine the wall, Desimus speaks a few words, and suddenly there is a flash of purple, red, and silver sparks. These fade quickly, however, and only light up the hallway for a moment.

dkoz - after the shock of casting a spell in such close proximity to a large amount of psionics, and not to mention the token technology around, you manage to see that there are no arcane auras within the range of your spell.
