The Rod of Seven Parts: Kauai Team OOC

CB, does the pool of water in the back of the cave seem deep? I was under the impression that it was merely a sizable puddle.

 

[SlagMortar]

I was under the same impression. Even so, between the earlier events in the adventure and the gnomes warnings not to touch or look too deeply in the water, Brakkus fears fishmen may come boiling out of it any second.

The pool at the back does not seem deep. A sizeable puddle maybe 6 inches deep. But it does have a drip that feeds it, which means that it's also got to have an outlet. That, or the water evaporates, but looking at it, the drip rate probably does not exceed the evaporation rate. You can see the bottom of the pool in patches; it looks like bedrock.

Hey, my grandmother may pass away today or tomorrow. Or not, God willing. She's very old, has alzheimers, and is in the hospital with pneumonia...her veins collapsed so no IV is being administered, she's unconscious...that kind of thing.

Just a head's up, I may be away from the game for a while in order to fly home to the mainland to be with family. If so, I will pop in before leaving to drop a line to let you all know.

Then again, who knows? Gma could linger for quite a while longer.

 

[Ambrus]

We'll hope for the best for her and your family. Out of curiosity how old is she?

 

[CanadienneBacon]

She's in her early 80s. Not fantasically old, but definitely fragile. I have always been close to her. My eldest daughter is named for her.

I just checked in over at the IC and saw that you guys seem like you want to keep walking.

Per what Brakkus indicated, I had you all go 200 yards in. Do you want to walk farther, and if so, how long do you want to keep going? Ten minutes? Half an hour? An hour? A day? Until you get somewhere different or see something interesting? Let me know, please.

 

[Ambrus]

Maelicent is partially nocturnal, well at home in the cavern and in no hurry to stop; he'll keep forging ahead until the giant-kin indicate that they've had enough.

 

[SlagMortar]

Best wishes for you grandmother and family.

Per what Brakkus indicated, I had you all go 200 yards in.

I'm fine with going in farther.

 

[Mista Collins]

As far as our current supplies will allow us.

And my prayers are with you and your family.
