With everything that transpired, I was not sure that Julian was going to continue with his ritual. My apologies. I will continue with that thread.

"He communes with eldritch beings for knowledge, Ashar," Ælfric explained. "Dangerous, foolhardy, but invaluably informative. If I take the keys from him now, it may disrupt his ritual... but my own cloaking spell that hides us won't last forever."

"It need not last forever. Our enemy knows we are here Ælfric." Julian rose to his feet as he left his trance, his questions answered, and turned to face the bound priest. "liantë avalê"

"Harrumph. And yet we are beneath this dark woman's notice for the moment. Then we have nothing to worry about, yet. Perhaps these hill giants are mere rabble to her. Let us continue to put them out of business." Korgazhar motioned for Julian to get things going with Fernal's impatience at the next cell.

As Julian speaks the words, the neck clasp and bracelets immediately come off of Dwendylin.

"Many thanks, Dreamseer..." Sister Ashar rubs her wrists and neck where the clasps once were, feeling relieved. "Those words of release that you used....in the fey tongue they mean 'Spider Goddess'.....this does not bode well I fear...."

Would Dwendylin know the association between 'Spider Goddess' and the Drow?Last edited May 21, 2019 8:32 pm

"References to the 'Spider Goddess' may imply that the Goddess of the dark elves, Lolth, has faithful here." Sister Ashar turns to the next cell...

"There is a dark elf sorceress working with the giants, Ashar. No surprises there. Let's get these other cells open. Maybe they have real surprises in them."

Fernal stands leaning against the wall across from the next cell. Appears she isn't in a hurry now as she waits quietly.

Julian goes through the cells, one by one, unlocking and dispelling each of the darkness effects. He seems confident that there will be no further threats here.

To my knowledge it wasn't openly suggested in character that drow were involved. So putting that out there....and being cautious of meta-gaming.Last edited May 21, 2019 10:11 pm

While in the D&D world Drow are old news, in Greyhawk, Drow are legendary creatures merely whispered about by those living around places that may have entry into the Underdark.... like here.. It is not unreasonable to assume experienced adventurers have encountered or heard of them... while i don;t think I did openly say Drow, I think in my descriptions some places it was inferred that a dark female sorceress of some kind may be lurking about... Aelfric could have assumed it, so I won't consider it 'complete' meta-gaming. :)load next
