[QUOTE="SelcSilverhand, post: 6242872, member: 30016"] Midian's spell carries you safely over the murky pools of water. You can see the thick tendrils undulating gently just below the surface. Whether they are filtering for food or merely drawing in fluids to feed the greater whole, it is hard to say. You remain quiet and cover your lights as you traverse the room. On the far side you step safely once more onto the metal deck of the main floor. Here you can see a control panel with marks and levers for controlling the levels and flow of water throughout the ship. Henrick leans over it and starts studying the controls and diagrams. Next to the platform you can see one of the massive metal tanks has burst and scattered debris. A few large pieces are blocking the large irising door that leads to the next chamber. There is a large thick glass window before you that allows you to view the next chamber. The room beyond is a massive cylinder 50' across and twice that deep. Only the top 10' of it is above the water which seems to spin in a slow clockwise motion, forming a slight dimple in the center where the vortex lies. A narrow catwalk encircles the chamber just above the moving surface. The chamber is bathed in shifting blue light that reminds you of being just under the water on a sunny day. Gazing down you can see a beautiful sight. A large dragonshard crystal the size of a man is suspended in the center. Its surface is a deep blue hue. The water around it in 4 cardinal directions seems to form a tube of rapidly spinning water directed towards 4 pipe openings set in the wall. The bottom-most depths of the chamber are murky and shrouded in shadow. Henrick speaks up after looking over the system. [COLOR="#FFFF00"]"This is it, one of the Monolith Crystals. It looks like it is intact. It is still feeding and purifying water from the elemental plane through the system. The door to the catwalk is blocked but two of those large pipes draw water into the chamber. You might be able to hold your breath long enough to enter the chamber via that route. There's also the glass here, but.. well it is very thick, designed to contain anything that might come through from.. the other side.
