Farm Boy HP: 10/13 || FP: 6/13 Conditions/Effects: Climbing! (reluctantly) Hank looks very uncomfortable leaving Harolde behind. "Nonsense. We can make it. Trust me." Not waiting for an objection, he hoists Harolde onto his back. "Just like unloading a wagon of hay bales, but with better conversation. You hang on tight - we'll be t'the other side in no time!" With a grunt, Hank sets off across the ledge, following Fili and Richard. Hank climbs.

“Thank you, but that’s dangerous for me even with all the best help. I’m staying put.”

Richard HP: 10/10 || FP: 7/10 Conditions/Effects: None Richard will use the newly formed ledge to shimmy across, offering a hand to help Harolde (should he wish it) before crossing on his own. OOC:

Fili easily makes it across to the other side. OOC Just waiting for rolls grim the rest of the group. This will give +5 to the climbing roll. Any two people can choose to assist Harolde as he hobbles across. Each of their successes will give him +1 to his roll, which is only at +2, not +5 due to the crippled leg.

HP: 10/11 FP: 6/11 Conditions: Clearly Harolde is feeling the pain in his leg and wants to rest it. There's no reason to push him to do something he's not comfortable with. It could make his leg worse. Fili starts to work her way across the other wall from Hank. OOC:

Alvan steps forward and waves his hands back and forth, "Hold on, hold on. I've got this." He kneels and traces some intricate symbols on the floor at the edge of the pit. He contorts his fingers and face, mumbling some unintelligible incantations. With a soft crunching sound a ridge of stone extends from the wall, making a narrow walkway along the left side, stretching to the far side. "Worked stone is difficult to manipulate. That is the best I can do," he says, nodding toward his handiwork. OOC This will give +5 to the climbing roll. Any two people can choose to assist Harolde as he hobbles across.

Looks like no one owns any rope. I was hoping once we got one person across, we could use a rope to make it easier for others.

Farm Boy HP: 10/13 || FP: 6/13 Conditions/Effects: Jumping! Hank is already grabbing for the first hand holds. "C'mon, guys! It can't be that hard. All them chanters musta come this way, too." He sees Harolde and pauses. "Harolde, if you can hang on to me, I can try to get both of us across."

After moving through the strange, unsettling archway, everyone takes a moment to gather their feet again. Looking around, the tunnel feels different, older, somehow. The stones in the wall are ancient, crumbling bricks. Faint outlines of symbols and carvings can barely be detected on their surfaces, but due to time, no real details can be deciphered. The chanting is louder now, coming from up ahead. Continuing on, the group comes across a wide pit blocking further passage. The gap in the floor is easily 12 feet across. A deep darkness rests in its depths, and even with Emily's magical light, a bottom cannot be seen. The passage continues on the other side of the pit and along the walls on either side are numerous depressions and handholds, implying one could climb along to ther other side.

Farm Boy HP: 10/13 || FP: 6/13 Conditions/Effects: Jumping! Hank looks up at Richard as he shakes his head. "Uff dah! What the heck was that?" He scrambles to his feet to make way for his friends as more folk start popping in out of the darkness. Re-readying his sword, he looks back at the crew. "Y'all ready? Let's go!"

Hank, quite uneasy from the strange sensation of passing through the arcway, slumps to the floor, his legs having given out beneath him. Richard stands, holding what looks like a lit match, faintly illuminating the continuing stairway. Suddenly, Emily bursts into view, her glowing stone lighting the way forward, though the way back is mysteriously dark. A moment later, Fili, Harolde, and Alvan emerge from the strange magical darkness behind. Almost immediately, Alvan stumbles and drops down hard on one knee. OOC Everyone else that has now passed the arch, please make a Body Sense roll. this defaults to DX-6 or Acrobatics-3 Due to Alvan loosing his footing, Harolde is at an additional -1....

Emily Magic. It has to be magic. A teleport or illusion. The alternative was too horrible to think. An illusion, probably, Emily decides. A teleport seems like it would be harder. Even if it was teleportation she doesn't want to split up. She strides forward through the arch. Fili passes through the archway and she, too, disappears from Fili, Harolde, and Alvan's sight. OOC HP 10/10; FP 4/12; ER 0/1

HP: 10/11 FP: 6/11 Conditions: Fili pulls up short as the two men vanish. As she waits for the wizards to catch up and tell her what to do next, she idly kicks a loose pebble into the archway to see what happens to it. OOC:

Hank heads down into the dark and narrow entry to the druid's altar. Almost immediately, he realizes that he is following behind Richard, who is apparently visible again. The rest of the group follows into the out of place stone structure. Stairs lead downward, curving to the left and then the right, fairly steeply. Alvan helps Harolde as much as he can, but the Cleric of Fharlanghn is just not able to keep up with the rest of the group. After a couple of minutes of climbing down the stairs, Richard and Hank pass through a narrow stone archway... OOC Oh no, the group has somehow been split again!

Looking into the hole, then at his friends, then back at the hole, he takes a deep breath. "Okey-dokey." Hank hunches over and sidesteps down into the dark hole.
