[Unbounded World:The Aeterian Expedition] (Now With New And Improved Amulets!)

[Lichtenhart]

He starts walking towards the lair entrance, keeping himself to the left, and tries to read the movements of a foe in the disturbed sand.

 

[Kalanyr]

While moving through the sand towards the lair entrance Duncan

Spoiler

You make out two of the disturbances in the sand , one of them has been created by a combination of human hands and the claws of a fairly small creature, the other has been made by a much larger creature burrowing. As you circle around you make out another one of the disturbances made by human hands and small claws.

 

[Lichtenhart]

If everyone arrives safely at the lair, Duncan asks Teppic about some little tracks he found, then leads the party in.

 

[Kalanyr]

Teppic

Spoiler

The tracks are of a desert dwelling dragon, you think they best match the description you have heard of the claws of a small blue dragon.

 

[hafrogman]

Teppic takes a moment to look at the tracks that Duncan has found. He considers them for a moment before pronouncing his judgement.

"Draconic definately. Probably a young member of the blue dragons that live in the deserts."

 

[Lichtenhart]

Duncan gets near Teppic and, looking around for Zerren, he whispers in his ear: "And what are the footprints of a blue dragonling doing in front of a brass dragon's lair? Our own dragonling made no mention of it. What does it make you think?"

 

[Ferrix]

Lochan skirts the edge of the basin, his trusty bow in his hands, he'll then follow Duncan down and keep his eyes and ears open.

[Spot and Listen checks if needed]

 

[hafrogman]

Teppic shrugs at Duncan's comment.

"I do not know. The tracks could have been made since the bronze fled. We know that there is someone working with the fiend, perhaps the blue is another servant of theirs. Or else it could have just been an overly curious youngster looking to pick a fight. All things are possible."

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

Talsia hangs in the back of the group, about 20 ft. away from the others, watching passively as she prays inwardly to her deity.

 

[Kalanyr]

You proceeds cautiously down the passage, being careful to keep watch for anything untowards, however everyone is caught by surprise when a huge tooth-filled maw bursts from the sand below, the shark like head is covered in writhing blackness, and you all feel a hideous suction as water is drawn from your body into the things maw. Lochan and Teppic lose a great deal of moisture their innate toughness being insufficient to resist the malicious draw of the fiendish power. However Talsia shields them from the damage, and her own defences turn a little of the power back on its originator, but they are insufficient to fully shield her, and her shielding of the others causes her to lose a great deal of life force drained through her companions.
