Note about runestones: These have two uses: 1) Anyone (magic user or not) can activate a runestone for one specified effect. This one seems to relate to Ynfernael gates, so I'll leave it up to you if you want to try it. 2) Characters who have the Runes skill can use runestones as an implement to make their spell casting easier; they act like wands and tomes in that they make certain spell effects easier to use. Again, there's no way to know what this one does unless you get it identified somehow.
I will also note that there may be many other ways to close the gate than to do what he tells you, but you'll have to get creative!
Also, I'm trying to sneak a +B for Hildar's check :D

And of I'm still under the Effects of Fear, is like to add that Diff to try to remove it.
Yeesh, you gotta be kidding me... Well, I can't use Advantage on this check to heal Strain from this check, correct? Can I give a Boost to Holiday with them, as the residual positive energy from my channeling if primal energies gives him strength and surety in the face of his daunting task?

With 5 the portal shuts down because the moon aligns with Jupiter and we can go grab some lunch ๐
Maybe find something about the creatures, like a weakness that will gives us a bonus for this encounter or the hybrid process?
