OOC:
Will some of this apply to current situation?

Historical Knowledge
When you enter a ruin or dungeon, you can correctly ascertain its original purpose
  The moment I see those writings, I immediately dash to them and start inspecting and copying them...

@Moon. You're not in a dungeon, so no. If you had been in our first dungeon then it would have definitely apppied. I'll keep that in mind going forwards though. Thanks for the reminder.

Looking down into the vast cavern you recall your purpose in coming here which was to get the help of a druid to defend Berda Trading Post.

You could explore the cavern but it would take weeks, possibly even months and you would need a lot more supplies than you currently have on you.

What do you do?

Ronda snorts irritably as the others study the inscriptions. "I been sayin' it, and I'll say it again: what're we wastin' time here for? We gotta get back to Berda! I'll admit, I was distracted by the phoenix too, but looks like Oli has got her own problems to deal with, so let's just go."

Wonder why it directed us here? Duke to the phoenix to see if it is directing more.

OOC:
Is Oli still in the room we fought the spiders?
"Duke, the Elvish writing I saw gave indications the Drow are back after hundreds of years. It appears the phoenix wanted to warn us."
Mar 5, 2019 7:17 am
OOC:
No. Oli came with you.
Mar 5, 2019 7:23 am
That is all and good. I was with hope to this was a way out of here. Appears Duke has less concern about the reappearance of Drows.

— Any experts in demonology here? I ask the group after finishing copying the writing. As soon as I recongnized what it meant - I split it into three separate parts, to prevent any arcane shenanigans. Because right here is the demon's name. It's in elvish script, but most likely drow in origin. I would bet that the spider from before was summoned by this. I'd remove this ... mural. Just in case.
OOC:
Moon would like to examine the carvings to determine how long ago they were made? She would use her Nature/Survival skills is possible to do that :)
Nature/Survival 14+6: 20
Investigation (if none of them apply) 14+4: 18

Check carvings 'age' - (1d20)

(14) = 14

@Moon: It's hard to say precisely but the carvings are not old. Somewhere between 2-4 weeks would be your best guess.

@everyone: If someone wishes to disturb the carvings , so they are no longer functional please make an arcana check.

@Everyone trained in Arcana: Could I get an arcana check for demon lore please.

Yorrick produces a small vial of white powder.

If anybody wants some, I call it guidance powder. It just makes you a bit better at the things you can already do. I promise, it isn't all that addictive.
OOC:
I'll cast guidance on whoever wants it.

While others discuss demonology, Stalwart discusses mortal matters with Oli. "Oli, now that the danger to the spiders is gone, will you be able to help us with our town's defenses? Your presence would be an immense help and would inspire everyone. Perhaps some of your spider friends would like to join us as well."
OOC:
Rolling in case it's needed

"Yeah. If the town's overrun, it's only a matter of time before they start trashin' the wilderness too!"
OOC:
Help action to give Stalwart advantage. Might I also suggest sprinkling of Yorrick's "guidance powder" on Stalwart?

Oli looks at the markings, scans the massive cavern vefore turning back to you I think the situation is under control for now. I don't like the fact that drow are messing with my grove but I think I can spare a couple of days to help you out. As for the spiders, I'm sure Jeremy will cone with me but the others had better stay here and protect their eggs. There don't seem to be any females left, so if they lose those eggs, the species will die.

Anyway, let's head to Berda. It's been ages since I've been to a town!
OOC:
She seems pretty happy to follow you back to Berda. Is everyone happy to head back right away? Short rest? Long rest? Bear in mind that time is a bit of an issue if you want to get there before the attack comes.
Mar 7, 2019 3:20 pm
I'm going to be much more useful if we could take a quick breather. My body can't take much more as it is.
OOC:
My vote is for a short rest. Just having wildshape back would be great.
Mar 7, 2019 3:21 pm
OOC:
Jabes would appreciate a rest, but Ronda would not have the patience for it, so no! :-D
Mar 7, 2019 3:24 pm
OOC:
Moon is ambivalent - she doesn't need rest and also has no sense of urgency to go anywhere. Right now she's just tagging along
Mar 7, 2019 5:13 pm
Duke is fine and has no real idea about what is going on.
Mar 7, 2019 7:50 pm
OOC:
Didn't we get to Oli's grove without incident? Can we get back to Berda easily and rest there?
Mar 8, 2019 12:46 am
OOC:
@Stalwart. It is far away. About a day's travel. Further if you get lost. Again.
