I trust you to know and differentiate and so I am fine with your choosing to choose not to be helpful. Besides, I'm playing a senior, we are forgetful. ;-)

You can speak telepathically to any creature you can see within 60 feet of you. Your telepathic utterances are in a language you know, and the creature understands you only if it knows that language. Your communication doesn't give the creature the ability to respond to you telepathically.Wildshaped could hear your normal speech and understand. So Tante Lude need not to use telepathic speech anyway.

We are trying to communicate through the curtain of water so assumed that it would drown out normal speech. Though may not be able to see through it well enough if that is the definition. But if we can hear, that's fine too.

@badbaron please read guidance spell description. At least in 5.0 it has no effect on saving throws.
There is another cantrip called Resistance that does. Do you have that cantrip prepared?

No, was thinking it was worth trying to see if it was a strength check rather than a strength save. So, if V will allow me, I'll give him some healing and send him back to try again.

I wrote previously wrote by mistake
I wanted to write
observe that the water wave seems to go through a section of the east wall.
through not from
Water is magically summoned from water curtain. It flows nort and south. As it flow it flow into the alcove. You did not see alcove but you see how water flow into it. That's how you figured out with your high PP that there is an alcove without seeing it
Why detect magic did not detect illusion? In DnD, there are magic means to prevent magic detection

@soises welcome to the game. Hope to see you take active part in the game soon. For now some recap and where to start:
1. To understand what and why are party doing in the dungeon read this but it may not be important to know just yet, you actually just want to survive while move through the dungeon
2. Here as some previous dungeon maps and resources collected - again probably not immediately important
The important:
Party
Tinkara - Sorceror, Wild Magic
Nyx - Moon Druid + Barbarian
Tante Lude - Twilight Cleric
Criella - Fighter (Eldritch)/Ranger
Game structure
I believe it is perfectly suited for new players to jump in because:
Each dungeon level is a "subchapter" you mostly don't need to know what happened in other levels.
Each level consists of multiple challenges (room or set of rooms) and there is a list of hints, but you don't know which hint correspond to what challenge. There is little to no connection between those challenges
Where are we now?
Just started lvl-2 and explored as much as possible without touching anything. And done with the first challenge - reflected water rooms.
Party deciding what to do next (I believe there are exactly 2 options - move forward on get into crawlway.
Oh yes, there are "crawlway" here and there in the dungeon, where you can crawl freely, but are "squeezed". And mostly everything is dark of course, but Tinkara has light cantrip.

Hi to everyone. :) Glad to be playing with you all. Some familiar faces as well around here.
@GreyWord> Thanks for the nice welcome and the summary. To be honest all of this is intimidating, as I was reading the current thread and didn't get a lot of what's going on at the moment.
Thinking of an artificer ranged character. Hope this will add to the group. :)
Tomorrow or Thursday there should be time to finish the character sheet. Will let you know, DM, when I am ready.

After sleeping over it for one night and re-reading some of the chapters, I am really sorry to inform you that I am bowing out. This adventure isn't a good fit for my play-style and preferences.
Thanks a lot for inviting me, GreyWord. I apologize for the hassle.
I wish all of you guys the best, tons of fun and a really keen mind to solve the puzzles. :)

This chamber contains a stone font filled with a steaming green liquid. Beyond it, a shadowy figure stands at an open door on the far side of the room. The figure's back is toward you. After a moment you realize that figure dressed just like Tante Lude, though you can't see it's face (it is back to you).
East of the font is a small, dusty, empty room

I think the point was to get the eye so this room is done
Can we get the LVL -2 map updated?
@GreyWord can you clarify the starting conditions of the water curtain room weapons? I want to avoid damage by solving it if possible
Side A?
Lizard-headed females with maces
Panther-headed males with blowguns
Unarmed hawk-headed females
Goat-headed males with sickles
Frog-headed females with tridents
Side B?
Stork-headed male with handaxe
Lizard-headed female with mace
Panther-headed male with blowgun
Unarmed hawk-headed female
Goat-headed male with sickle
Frog-headed female with trident

I will do map tomorrow.
Both sides if curtain are reflection. I.e most further away from curtain are Lizard-headed on both sides. And crawlway are between their legs. Could post more details tomorrow
