As soon as Thrune finishes the phrase, the light emanating from the runes ceases to glow. You struggle for a few minutes but then manage to remove the giants body from within the opening of the pyramid.
While moving the giants body you find a pouch containing a scroll. The writing on the scroll seems indecipherable to you but you can tell it is of an arcane nature.
You peer into the now clear opening of the pyramid. At the bottom of the pyramid, 60 feet down, lies several open chests. A few broken, burned, and bloated kobold bodies lie amid the chests. After scanning the area for a minute, you notice a large hole in the ground at the corner of the pyramid. A few small digging implements, picks and shovels sized forkobolds, lie broken near the hole.

Thune puts the scroll in his backpack, "We probably need a spell to read this."
From the top, he looks in the hole in the corner, to see if it is empty. "Rizak, if we need to, would you mind climbing down? I'll stay up here to pull you up if necessary."

Happy Holidays all!Rizak has no trouble climbing down into the pyramid. A thorough check of the area reveals the following.
All that is left of the treasure is a necklace made of human ears, a magnifying glass with the glass missing, and a deck of playing cards marked so inexpertly that anyone could tell. All are worthless except for the novelty.
Kobold tracks indicate that a large number of those creatures were here, and they tunneled into the pyramid through the floor.
A crumbled piece of paper rests next to one of the kobold bodies, and it contains the following instructions, written in Common:
[ +- ] Note in common
Your tribe is wise to have accepted our offer to serve us and Lord Thrym. We have provided you the instructions and the tools you need. When you have retrieved the treasure from within the pyramid, meet us at the agreed-upon location. You will be paid for your work, and we will let your tribe live. Remember, if our stone-skinned brothers find you, do not tell them of your agreement with us, or they will kill you.

Merry of the Christmas to you all :)OOC:
Is there any signs of combat? if so could i possibly tell who the combatants were? Also is the hole they dug thru sealed?Dec 27, 2018 4:54 pm
OOC:
I hope everyone had/has/will have the happiest of holidays!"Please hold onto that note. It is a clue we may need. Lord Thrym is the leader of the frost giants. It appears they and the stone giants are not allies."
Thrune helps Rizak back up when he's ready.

"Good work down there. As much I would like to chase and destroy those kobolds, we should probably rest up in town and continue to the next location."

"Ya, i reckon so, its getting a bit late. I can only imagine the treck back to be just as long. Say you reckon them badgers belonged to the kobolds?" Rizak asks as they get ready for the decent down the pyramid.

"I believe the badgers belonged to the humans who built this pyramid. When we get to town, I want to ask around to see if anyone recognizes the collar I have."

"It might be. I don't read or write Kobold or Goblin." Thrune pulls out the collar from his backpack. Thrune tries to recognize the lettering if not the meaning of the words on the collar before displaying it to Rizak. "Do you?"

Neither of you recognize the writings on the collar.
You head back to Parnast and experience no troubles along the way. Resting up in the inn you meet some new companions.
