Session 2: Tomb of the Necrodancer

Rhograx sticks the jump quite cleanly, and the rock he used splashes into the sand in sync with his landing.

Rhograx has earned a point of inspiration for creativity!

Kurosawa will make his way to the edge try his best not to look at the moving sands below

Valrakas and Rhograx begin to tug at the rope, but they both suddenly feel zero resistance on the other side. This is because Kyros had begin climbing the rock in spectacular fashion. His fingertips seem to dance up the wall, and he even does a handstand at the top. After holding the handstand for a few seconds, he does a half-turn and lets himself plummet to the bottom--evoking a gasp from the group. At the last moment up pulls his legs inwards and lands neatly on his feet. ...
The party resumes travel after that interlude, and makes it about halfway across the river before Nalu stops dead in his tracts. He sniffs the air a bit before asking a question.

"Does it smell like sulfur? Something doesn't feel right..."

Perception

In the distance, Qiora and Valrakas can see some figures on the horizon. It looks like three of the bridges spanning the river come in close proximity with each other, with the party's bridge running down the middle. It appears there are individuals camped out on the flanking bridges, and there seems to be a network of masts and pulleys that are tied down onto the rocks. Frankly, they look like sand pirates. The smell of sulfur in the air must be caused by some sort of explosive.

The heat must be getting to Kyros, because he sees a mirage in the distance. Two pirate boats being manned by VERY attractive tieflings.

They haven't seen the party yet, so there's some time to strategize.
