The passage continues for another 60 feet, and Valinar can there make out what looks to be a narrow stair case that ends in a plain wooden door.
Nov 18, 2015 7:08 pm
Valinar walks back to the group, "Same here, just a stairway and a door," with that he grabs one of his lights out of the air and shakes it, then tosses it on the ground like a die, "I say we go south!"

Ohica shrugs; she'd just as soon follow one wall in any case, and going south follows the right wall.

"This is acceptable to me. Let's proceed with alacrity. I'm eager to get out of the water, and Boide here needs holy battle."
Nov 18, 2015 8:19 pm
"Well... yes," says Boide, the brief moment's hesitation quickly squashed. He pushes forward, mentally going over the battle hymns learned at temple.

Hearing mention of possible battle, Valinar realizes that he feels rather vulnerable and quickly enacts a spell, "Elnaz Vak'tir"

As he finishes there is a barely discernible waver when looking at him, which quickly fades to invisibility. Valinar feels much safer now and his lights bounce in happiness.

"I see nothing of real interest in either direction." Tolvaj answers Boide as he turns south and follows behind the others.

...which I guess means that Ohica is leading the way.

(OoC: it's like a scene in a screwball comedy, where everyone is trying to hide behind everyone else!)

Ohica continues to peep the passage for interesting and/or dangerous features.

Edit: as she leads the way down the south passage (to be explicit).

Ohica leads the group forward and arrives first at the door. There is a small stair case, which the water stops just before, that ends in a plain wooden door.

This whole thing has, so far, been pretty much a screwball comedy... best 1ed update ever!

Ohica ascends the stairs, her boots squishing with each step. She examines the door.

It is, to her eyes, a plain wooden door.
Nov 19, 2015 8:05 am
It's tough to move, but with a good shouldering Ohica has the strength to open the door. It reveals a 30 foot square room with nine silvery globes hanging from the ceiling by fine wires. One 2-foot diameter globe hangs in the centre of each 10 foot square of the room. Other than the globes, and the still ever-present water on the floor, the room appears empty.

*There's still water on the floor? That's weird...*

Ohica pauses on the threshold, and asks "Does anyone else find this suspicious? Tolvaj, do you see any traps?"
Nov 19, 2015 4:40 pm
Boide sarcastically mutters, "Probably the entire room."
Nov 19, 2015 4:53 pm
Ohica nods. She looks in her pack. "Does anybody have a torch? I want to toss something in there that we don't need..."
Nov 19, 2015 4:59 pm
"I've got a candle," offers Boide, fishing through his pack. "... somewhere in here... "
Nov 19, 2015 10:51 pm
Tolvaj will give a quick nod to Ohica and will walk around the perimeter of the room searching for traps or other things of interest along the walls. As always he does his best to remain hidden in any shadows or cover that might present itself.

OOC: Offered two rolls for the searching, use which ever one I rolled best with makes sense - assuming they're needed at all.

Boide finds one of the candles in his belongings, and holds it out to Ohica.
Nov 20, 2015 12:45 am
Ohica, who was preparing to toss something onto the floor before anyone entered the room, watches in a mixture of awe and disappointment as Tolvaj saunters into the room. She half expects him to be fried with electricity, so she is wondering how she could retrieve him if a trap does trigger...
Nov 20, 2015 7:38 am
Tolvaj scans the perimeter of the room, and finds nothing of note. Each of the nine clear globes contains something different. One has a thick greyish fluid with something floating in it, another is filled with gems, another water with a potion and a key submerged in it...
