(9) DM: has everyone caught up on the forums?
(9) DM: you searched around the plaza
(6) Jordan: Yes. Just finished
(9) DM: and went into the third buidling
(6) Jordan: We are climbing the bridge
(9) DM: finding nothing but old dust and mold
(9) DM: then tried to head for the middle of this circle of buildings, and ran into a bog
(9) DM: so you turned around and headed north, running into a bridge after the fourth building
(9) DM: it's about 30 feet up from the jungle floor
(9) DM: covered in vines on the side
(9) DM: and everyone can easily climb up taking their time
(9) DM: getting on top and looking around
(9) DM: towards teh tower, you see the canopy from below rising up over you
(9) DM: like arches over a tunnel
(9) DM: and at th end what looks like a black doorway set into a wall of greenery
(9) DM: away from the tower
(9) DM: the bridge heads straight as far as you can see
(9) DM: everyone is surprised to notice
(9) DM: that while the sides were overgrown with vines and plants
(1) Ito: Gittaka
(9) DM: the path on top is flat, smooth, and without a plant on it
(9) DM: What do you do?
(9) DM: it's maybe 1 or 2 hours after noon
(6) Jordan: does it look like there has been running water here recently?
(9) DM: no
(9) DM: the top is smooth, seemless stone
(4) Boombaata: Let's check out the tower
(9) DM: as far as you can see in either direction
(6) Jordan: What about where this comes from?
(9) DM: the same strange, pinkish yellow stone that everything else here seems to be made out of
(6) Jordan: Its all connected....
(9) DM: you head for the tower
(9) DM: the going is easy now
(9) DM: without branches or even leaves to contend with
** (2) Kerrick decides that it really doesn't matter where we go first. like 6 of one and 1/2 dozen of the other **
(3) Andrinor: "Let the Captain and his mate continue towards the tower. I need to talk to all of you."
(9) DM: even inside the short 2 foot lip on the sides of teh walk, there isn't a leaf or spec of dirt built up
** (6) Jordan looks quizically at Andrinor **
(9) DM: the captain takes point
** (6) Jordan wonders if there is magic at work here **
** (3) Andrinor waits for everyone's attention **
(6) Jordan: What is it Andrinor.... the day is waningn
** (4) Boombaata comes over to Andrinor **
(8) Fungia: Go ahead
** (1) Ito pays attention to Andrinor **
(3) Andrinor: "Now might be a good time for all of you to understand the broader picture of where we are and what is happening."
** (6) Jordan is Suprized! **
** (2) Kerrick seems to fade out **
(6) Jordan: Now you tell us there is a broader picture!
** (2) Kerrick does not seem to hear you guys at all **
(3) Andrinor: "It is common knowledge to most everybody in these lands that Gruumsh is the fighting teh gods of men, elves, and dwarves for all of time."
(1) Ito: Well?
** (2) Kerrick just stares at the tower **
(4) Boombaata: Kerrick, Demon got your tongue?
(3) Andrinor: "That it ture, but not all of the truth...somebody grab him"
** (6) Jordan Looks at Kerrick... nudges him... "pay attention" **
** (2) Kerrick doesn't respond **
(4) Boombaata: uh oh
(3) Andrinor: "It's also common knowledge that the Giants were defeated and estroyed by their human slaves."
** (6) Jordan nudges Kerrick harder... **
(3) Andrinor: "We have come to a place where ancient powers are still dwelling..."
** (3) Andrinor thinks.... **
(6) Jordan: Hey... Andrinor... dont mean to break in on your late breaking news... but ... what is up with Kerrick?
(1) Ito: The ancient powers run a messy ship.
** (2) Kerrick waves off Jordan **
(3) Andrinor: "The Giants are still living in this world and Gruumsh is also being fought by both the Giants and their god....my god...Kronos."
** (6) Jordan shrugs... Kerrick seems ok now.... **
(6) Jordan: ??? Who is Kronos?
(6) Jordan: Wait... did you say the giants god... your god....
** (6) Jordan blanches **
(1) Ito: We've gone from gold to gods... this is taking a turn for the worse.
** (3) Andrinor straightens up and smiles, "And that's it, only that I think it would good for all of you to reflec tin your own way on where you are stnading now, and on who can give us the divine help we may need to find teh scroll and do with it what mwe must." **
(8) Fungia: brb
** (2) Kerrick starts to take uneasy steps forward to the tower **
(4) Boombaata: So you can help us then
(3) Andrinor: "I said to hold him."
** (6) Jordan glancing over his shoulder at Andrinor **
(6) Jordan: Im with you Kerrick... lets go ...
** (6) Jordan moves towards the tower **
(9) DM: the group begins to follow the captain
** (6) Jordan casts mage armor on self **
(9) DM: towards teh tower
** (3) Andrinor reaches out and grabs Kerrick by the shoulder, "Do all of you understand? Treat this area with respect. Know that those who want to destroy GRuumsh are friends of mine and friends of this powerful setting." **
(1) Ito: Andrinor... just how happy will your god be with us poking about?
(9) DM: you approach, and the trees clear as you get near
(1) Ito: point
(9) DM: almost as though they are afraid to touch the great stone column
(9) DM: about 80 or 100 feet wide
(9) DM: round at the base
(9) DM: and at least 250 feet tall
(9) DM: the tower TOWERS over you
(1) Ito: Jeet.
(9) DM: craning your necks to see the top
(3) Andrinor: "Ito, we are here to stop the foul Gruumsh, are we not? Kronos knows of our intentions."
** (1) Ito follows Andrinor since everyone else doesn't have a god on their side. **
(1) Ito: Then I'll follow you.
(9) DM: looking down
(9) DM: below you is a square, pyramid like structure that leads up to the tower
(9) DM: ramps of a sort
(9) DM: each with a door or two set in them
** (6) Jordan mumbles to himself... 'stupid.... cleirics.... kronos .... get meself... stupid situations...." **
(9) DM: all overgrown with vines
(9) DM: as you get near, the sun hits you through the cleared trees
(9) DM: and it's hot
(9) DM: What do you do?
(9) DM: you see an opening before you
(3) Andrinor: opening in the doors?
(9) DM: an arched door, like the one in the building
(9) DM: and above it
(9) DM: you can make out a glint of gold
(6) Jordan: pick up a rock and throw it into the opening
(9) DM: from a huge gold disk overgrown with vines
(1) Ito: No!
** (3) Andrinor smiles, "Don't touch anything..." **
** (6) Jordan musing... where did the captain go? **
(9) DM: at least 20 feet across, the gold disk is
** (1) Ito moves to stop Jordan **
(3) Andrinor: ooc did Jordan Actually...honestly just throw a stone at the tower?!
(9) DM: the captain and his mate are pointing up at teh gold disk, trying to figure out how to get it on the ship
(9) DM: the stone clattered through the openning. nobody died
(6) Jordan: ooc: We asll do what we say unless it is OOC
** (2) Kerrick allows a slight grin at the foolishness of the captain **
(3) Andrinor: ooc please hold? :)
(1) Ito: Disrespectful
** (6) Jordan looks at the glaring Ito **
** (4) Boombaata justs watches the drama **
(1) Ito: If you'd shown disrespect for the Sea God on my ship, we'd have thrown you overboard and bleeding.
(2) Kerrick: [1d20+4] -> [19,4] = (23)
(9) DM: [1d20+15] -> [13,15] = (28)
(6) Jordan: yeh... and your wandering around with a cleiric of Kronos.... the god has got to know a lot of disrespect...
(1) Ito: Nothing personal, we just dont' want to die.
** (3) Andrinor walks over to Jordan, grabs him by the shoulders, and kicks his legs out from under him, throwing him to the ground **
(6) Jordan: Atack rool
(9) DM: Kerrick takes several halting steps towards the entrance.... he looks like he's fighting to control himself
(6) Jordan: initiative
(6) Jordan: I will not take that lying down
(3) Andrinor: ooc fine with me
(3) Andrinor: ooc DM?

(9) DM: What do you do?
(3) Andrinor: ooc take turns?
(4) Boombaata: We need to lose sight of that disk
(4) Boombaata: Shall we go inside?
(1) Ito: We can solve two problems at once if the captain and his mate look after Kerick while you lot go in and look for the scroll crown thing.
(1) Ito: I'll stay with the other halflings.

(9) DM: at the center is a round, raised platform, with a 3 foot step leading up
** (6) Jordan walking up to look through the openings. **
(9) DM: on top of that, a stone altar made of black stone, standing out sharply to the marbly quartz stone of everything else
(4) Boombaata: We'll have to remeber it when we are running out
(9) DM: There is something on top of that altar, that you cannot make out
(9) DM: around the edges...

(9) DM: if he healed up, you'd guess he's worth 150 to 200 gold... a well trained lettered slave
(1) Ito: I'm not so good at feeling
(9) DM: with his magic, maybe even 500
(1) Ito: heheh
(2) Kerrick: Ito, would you mind bringin that knife over here? Don't worry.. the demon is gone now

** (1) Ito makes a note that he himself is worth 100,000gp **
(4) Boombaata: We are in no shape to take on another fight. Unless this scroll is easyto come by, we should come back
(8) Fungia: we have no time left
(8) Fungia: or food
(1) Ito: Well, from the way Andrinor acted, I think we're ok.
(3) Andrinor: ooc BACk...sorry
(2) Kerrick: I am barely conscious
(1) Ito: Whatever that was is gone.
(4) Boombaata: There is a time limit?
(1) Ito: I say whoever can go on should
(2) Kerrick: I'm not sureI can stay withthe group unless I get some healing
(9) DM: looking around for the captain, you realize he and his mate are not to be seen
(1) Ito: Andrinor, please tend to Kerick and Jordan
(8) Fungia: time limit is food and the damn halflings that will take us back
(1) Ito: Boombaata, Fungia and I can probably find whatever we're supposed to find
(4) Boombaata: If we don;t die in the process
(1) Ito: Split the group and we can get this done
(8) Fungia: let me see that sword
(9) DM: you see the ceremonial knife/ sword
** (2) Kerrick remembers he's already asked Ito for the sword **
(8) Fungia: describe
(1) Ito:
(9) DM: it's about the size of a man's short sword, with a big thick grip for a much bigger hand then any of you have
(3) Andrinor: "Ito, I will tend to those who deserve it. We only leave behind those who cannot walk.
(9) DM: the metal gleams like gold or silver, but also like a well-polished and folded steel
(8) Fungia: any writing?
(9) DM: and is hypnotic to look upon
(2) Kerrick: Fungia.. I'd lie to see if that thing is magical
** (3) Andrinor looks over at Jordan without expressions and tends to kerrick **
(1) Ito: I agree with Andrinor
(9) DM: there is no writing on the blade, but along the crossguard are small characters that none of you recognize, but all find beautiful to see
(1) Ito: Fungia, may I give it a look over?
(8) Fungia: sure
(1) Ito: Appraise
(1) Ito: [1d20+5] -> [4,5] = (9)
** (3) Andrinor interrupts, "Do NOT touch...and don't take." **
(1) Ito: hmmm... it's junk
(9) DM: you'd guess, even not magical, it's weight would make it worth 1000 gold or more
(1) Ito: worthless
(3) Andrinor: [1d8+4] -> [2,4] = (6)
(8) Fungia: that is enought to pay the captain
(1) Ito: Kerrick should see it
(8) Fungia: if we need it
(1) Ito: Andrinor said we shouldn't take it
(6) Jordan: ooc: one thousand gold!!!
(9) DM: to the right collectort
(2) Kerrick: place it back on the altar
** (3) Andrinor stands up... **
(8) Fungia: why?
(1) Ito: and it's worthless anyway
(3) Andrinor: "You saw how disrespect shaped the fate of Jordan. Don't risk your lives for that which does not belong to you."
(2) Kerrick: let's make sure we have what we came for and are on our way out before we entertain the idea of takign stuff
(1) Ito: Right
(4) Boombaata: I agree
(8) Fungia: sorry about your hand K

(3) Andrinor: ooc drinking homebrew with some kickin hops...yikes
(8) Fungia: can we see anything down the hole?
(1) Ito: ooc is allergic to hops... I curse my existence
** (3) Andrinor leans up to slip the blade back on top of the altar **
** (6) Jordan is still laying next to the hole.... barely breathing **
(3) Andrinor: ooc I think it's mental..
(1) Ito: Right
(9) DM: looking down the hole, you see a chamber below that looks similar, as far as you cna tell, to the one youre' in
(1) Ito: so, we move on
(9) DM: it's darker, and you can't make much out
(9) DM: the floor looks to be about 5 feet thick
(8) Fungia: how far down?
(9) DM: about 30 or 40 feet
(4) Boombaata: Too far
(8) Fungia: not for a rope
(4) Boombaata: you have one?
(8) Fungia: two
** (3) Andrinor steps out over the hole **
(1) Ito: I have a 25 footer

(9) DM: andrinor steps out over thin air, and floats there
(8) Fungia: 2 x 50'
(9) DM: bobbing slightly
(3) Andrinor: "up"
(9) DM: nothing happens
** (3) Andrinor thinks... **
(1) Ito: way to go Andrinor!
(8) Fungia: does the rope float as well?
** (1) Ito is amused **
(9) DM: yep

(8) Fungia: does anyone have any spells
(2) Kerrick: anyone speak any ancient languages?
** (2) Kerrick looks for any symbols or writing around the hole **
(8) Fungia: does the sword have anything to do with it?
(3) Andrinor: "I thought of that, but I do not know how to speak like those who built this."
(9) DM: there are some symbols on the wall behind the hole
(9) DM: you don't recognize them
(2) Kerrick: um
(4) Boombaata: yeah
(2) Kerrick: just for kicks, detect magic and look around the area
(8) Fungia: Fungia looks around the room looks around the room
** (3) Andrinor smiles, knowing Kerrick would eventually break down and cast it :) **
(3) Andrinor: ooc HOLY cary...I'm a dumbass. I have a spell for this!
(9) DM: Detect Magic...
** (1) Ito is utterly out of his depth here. Eats a ration. **
** (2) Kerrick looks around the room with big eyes **
(2) Kerrick: let's... let's not touch anything right now
(9) DM: looking around otherwise, you see many spots on th ewalls with runes carved
** (4) Boombaata is not sure what to do **
** (6) Jordan eyes continue to bleed **
(9) DM: between curtains
(9) DM: most next to ropes and such
(9) DM: some look like they might be slogans or something like that
(1) Ito: ooc I thought Andrionor healed Jordan
(9) DM: Jordan received no healing from the cleric... although Fungia has patched him up so he no longer bleeds
** (3) Andrinor holds out his hands and brings them to his temples, closing his eyes and speaking in a lost tongue **
(2) Kerrick: ..anyone speak giant?
(2) Kerrick: oh.. I see Andrinor does
(4) Boombaata: nope
(9) DM: andrinor traces his hands on the wall
(8) Fungia: no i
(9) DM: words pour out of his mouth
(9) DM: and the group heads.... (up or down?)
(3) Andrinor: up!
(9) DM: up
(8) Fungia: up
(9) DM: floating up to the next level
(9) DM: floating up to the next level
(9) DM: ...
(9) DM: you come into another room, also round
(9) DM: a bit smaller then the one below
(9) DM: there is no altar in the middle of this one
(9) DM: or doors in the walls
(9) DM: instead, larger windows, about 10 feet wide and 15 tall, circle the room
(9) DM: the center is a bit, lines with black tiles, as though for a fire
(9) DM: and 3 foot stpes go down towards that central fire pit
(9) DM: more curtains and ropes and such line the walls
(9) DM: another floor looks to be above, as well
(3) Andrinor: "Let's continue
(8) Fungia: take a look around first
(4) Boombaata: I wonder if this is some sort of beacon
(8) Fungia: hmmmm
** (2) Kerrick stays silent **
(4) Boombaata: Or signalling tower
(8) Fungia: is there anything in the first pit
(8) Fungia: first = fire
(9) DM: you look around, and see a lot of nothing without poking behind curtains or pulling guilded gold ropes
(9) DM: nothing in the pit at all
(8) Fungia: no pulling
(9) DM: What do you do?
(8) Fungia: lets go
(8) Fungia: up
(2) Kerrick: up
(4) Boombaata: up
(9) DM: up
(9) DM: Andrinor again speaks the words, and you rise
(1) Ito: we repeat the process until we see something interesting
(9) DM: the next level is smaller still then the last
(9) DM: round
(9) DM: with more of the large windows linign teh walls
(9) DM: these are more like 10 by 20, though
(9) DM: directly across from you is a large, circular hole in the wall
(9) DM: and a great gold disk hangs there, in the hole
(3) Andrinor: up until we hit hte top, find something nifty....then down like mad to the lower levels....oooo
(9) DM: up again
(9) DM: there is still one more level above this one, you think
(9) DM: this level, above the gold disk, has no windows
(9) DM: it is a dark room, and your eyes slowly adjust
(9) DM: it is a much smaller room, perhaps only 30 feet across (instead of 50 one level down)
(9) DM: and the torch stone shows that the walls are lines with writing
(9) DM: lots of writing
(9) DM: up and down the walls
(9) DM: What do you do?
(8) Fungia: OK A you are on...
(2) Kerrick: Andrinor, can you read that?
** (3) Andrinor scans the writing for anything useful **
(9) DM: Andrinor goes to read it, and searches for something useful
** (3) Andrinor doesn't take forever though...scans **
(9) DM: "...and the peoples of the Mighty God were plentiful..."
(9) DM: "...So did the mighty god strive against the wise god..."
(9) DM: "...then came the start of teh second age...."
(9) DM: it looks like a history
** (3) Andrinor smiles and steps over the hole, "Ready?" **
(3) Andrinor: down
(3) Andrinor: down
(3) Andrinor: down
(9) DM: there is one more level up still
(3) Andrinor: oh
(3) Andrinor: up
(2) Kerrick: ...
(3) Andrinor: :P
(2) Kerrick: up up up
(9) DM: up to the top level
(9) DM: here, the tower is capped by a roof, and open walls
(9) DM: 7 columns along the outside hold up the roof
(9) DM: and otherwise, it is open
(9) DM: from here, you can see the jungle laid out before you
(9) DM: the waters of teh inland sea to the west and south
(2) Kerrick: do we see the captain?
(9) DM: some rising hills beyond a bog to the south and east
(4) Boombaata: Do we see the end of the bridge?
(9) DM: and to the north, in the direction of teh bridge
(9) DM: you see, miles distant other towers
(1) Ito: other... towers...
(4) Boombaata: hmmmm
(9) DM: Several towers, tall and grand, rising out of teh jungle miles from where you are
(9) DM: and, looking carefully about 60 degrees right and left of those towers, you can make out a single tower in the distance on either side
** (3) Andrinor gapes at the sight and leans at the window **
(1) Ito: if the tower are out there like that... what do you think the disc was for?
(9) DM: refer to map for sketch
(3) Andrinor: "we'll talk about it on the way down"
(2) Kerrick: travel
(9) DM: you don't see the captain
(9) DM: but you can't see much of anything... due to the top of the canopy
(9) DM: down
(9) DM: past the level with the history
(9) DM: past the level with the big sun disk
(9) DM: past the level with the fire pit
(2) Kerrick: I'd really like to read that history someday
(9) DM: to the starting level, and jordan's body
(9) DM: that's when you hear it

(9) DM: What do you do?
(2) Kerrick: GIT, stupid Banthrataks
(3) Andrinor: find those halflings
(2) Kerrick: go outside and kill the captain
(9) DM: you head outside, K and A in the lead, out onto the bridge
(8) Fungia: was the sound from outside the tower
(1) Ito: Giit!!! Giiit! Git! Git!
(9) DM: below, you see several crushed trees
(9) DM: , and on top of them, a great golden disk
(6) Jordan: [1d20+2] -> [10,2] = (12)
(2) Kerrick: ..... stupid banthrataks...
(9) DM: on it is the face of what looks like a handsome orc, over a crossed warhammer and flail
(8) Fungia: ooc warhammer = good card
(9) DM: Looking up, you see the captain and his mate climbing down the vines, about 30 feet up
(3) Andrinor: "Somebody retrieve Jordan.
(9) DM: Jordan then stumbles out behind you, leaning on the wall. It seems that great sound has even awakened him
(3) Andrinor: "nevermind
(8) Fungia: "What are you doing......?"
(8) Fungia: "You foolish halflings"
(2) Kerrick: What have you done?!
** (4) Boombaata shakes his head **
** (3) Andrinor slips his flail free and waits at the base of the vines, "Explain yourselves." **
(9) DM: the halflings start to climb sideways, to avoid you, and come down to the jungle floor near the gold disk
(3) Andrinor: ooc okay....
** (3) Andrinor walks towards them ,"Explain yourselves!" **
(8) Fungia: how far down?
(4) Boombaata: ooc those guys can move!
(1) Ito: did we tell them not to touch anything?
(8) Fungia: yes
(1) Ito: aha
(8) Fungia: How far down?
(4) Boombaata: I can;t remember how many times we told them not to touch anything
(4) Boombaata: but it was a lot
(9) DM: they're about level with the bridge now, 20 feet or so over, and climbing down fast
(1) Ito: And they could have brough the building down on us inside for all they know...
(8) Fungia: Stop and explain yourselves
(1) Ito: Kerrick... got any tricks?
(2) Kerrick: Ito, of course
