"Oh gods, thank you, thank you! Please, I hate to be a bother, but we fell into a pit, and it was actually a slide that dropped us here, and we've been stuck for hours. I need to get back to my family at the inn, please, I'll repay you in any way I can."

Voices pour into the arena, followed by their owners, and the relief on Rabe's face could not be more obvious. He looks Que in the eye and puts his hands together in a show of supplication.

"Who are you?" Que asks, holding her flame up higher to get a better view. "I'm Quelenniavara Siannodel, or Que for short. I might be able to help you out..." She begins looking over their cell.

@Que
You see that the cell door is a large series of stone bars topped with a very heavy stone that looks impossible to lift. A rope hangs from the top and disappears onto a landing above the cell. You guess that there's almost certainly some kind of mechanism on a landing on the roof of the cell. You climb up a set of stairs and into the stadium. You make your way around until you are on the roof of the cell. There you see a massive stone wheel and a set of pulleys. Assuming the rope could take the strain of the weight, then you're certain that turning the wheel would open the door to the cell. However, it looks pretty hard to move.

"I'm Rabe, and this is Friska."
Rabe motions above the cell.
"I think there's a platform up there with a rope on it. I have to imagine it opens the cell; if you can get up there I'll do what I can down here."

Que pops her knuckles cockily and heads towards the pulley, determined to give it a solid try before asking for help. She heaves on the mechanism with all her might.

@Magak
@Everyone
Everyone please take a short rest. Use any mechanics that you need to and you can spend any number of hit dice to heal yourselves.You see the muscles tense along Magak's massive arms as you see the door to the prison slowly begin to rise. He lifts it about three feet off the ground and Rabe and Vrizz'ka manage to dive out of their cell.
You stand at the far end of the arena. Next to you there is a stone door which you see no obvious way to open. In the middle of the arena there is a small stone obelisk. Surrounding the arena is a series of stone seats. On the opposite side of the arena there is a door leading back to the cave with the pile of dead animal corpses and the wall painting.
What do you do?
OOC:
That roll is good enough. The DC was 12. Also you can use both of your hit dice if you like. Don't forget to add your con to the heal too.@Everyone

Rabe scrambles underneath the door, and once he has cleared it he stands and brushes the dust from his knees. He looks up into the smirking face of Que, and embraces her in gratitude-filled bear hug.
"Thank you so much. ...I'm sorry, I guess I don't know what else to say. We couldn't have done that on our own, we owe our lives to you..."
Rabe looks back at the orc, his muscles still bulging from the effort of having lifted the door.
"And to you, too."
He turns back to Que.
"What are you doing here? ...Miara didn't send you, did she?"

Rabe lets out a joyous, booming laugh--made even louder in the cavernous arena--and wraps the Orc in an even bigger bear hug.
"Thank you, thank you friend. What is your name, good sir?"

Vrizz'ka is a 5 foot tall dragonborn with teal scales, golden eyes and a nasal horn on their snout. Rather than being heavily muscled they are lean like a snake. When the other players appear Vrizz'ka backs off from the front of the cell and stands warily behind Rabe, a nervous rattle sounding in their throat.
Upon being released their scent the air of the arena by flicking their tongue out and then say: "Thank you freedom. Good out." in common heavily accented with draconic.

"Awe, don't mention it," Que says with a mild blush, accepting Rabe's hug gratefully. "Magak did all the heavy lifting. I think we're good to take a rest for a bit, then we'll head on our merry way."
OOC:
Que didn't take any damage, correct @Arina? If not, she's at full HP. All she recovers from the rest is another Wild Shape use, but no one knows that yet.Jun 17, 2017 11:48 pm

@MagakI think it's fair for everyone to use Glòrendil's roll for his song of rest ability so take another 2 hps.

She only took damage while in her tiger form so she's still at full health :)
