Shocker

Quick question what do you think your task is at gnomengarde?

Peter Sellers at that age is kind of a give away, I never actually saw the whole movie

Being there

Tervaround squirms a bit at the word king. “Yes talking with the kings might be a good idea. But the protection of Gnomengard lies in being in a magical bubble, and having studded the whole system with effective weapons.” He looks straight at Dorik “the latter is doing a great job in keeping away unwanted visitors, such as tax collectors, mail deliverer but also orcs. We are perfectly safe here, everybody who enters Gnomengarde does so on their own peril. We are the gnomes of Gnomengarde and do not need anything or anybody from outside for our protection”

the gnome with the poker calls out “Send them to Fibblestib, that will be quicker for them to get answers than from his Majesty.”

”He sure has an opinion on everything, and if not him Dabbledob will have ideas.” The gnome folding the bread loaves interjects.
“Yes that is a good idea, go see Fibblestib and Dabbledob, they are sure to be found in their workshop on the other side of the river”

Gilavar sees a regular kit hen, with the normal hustle and bustle of such a place. The most unusual thing about it is the large number if strange and elaborate devices, apparently used in the preparation of food.
 

“You might want to get on your way now, the sooner you talk with Fibblestib, the sooner you are gone.”

I have absolutely no idea. Shot in the dark would be Eddie the eagle

True lies?

The gnome standing on the table climbs down “A dragon, did you hear that Tervaround?”

”yes it’s the same story that bossy woman told, the one the king sent away.” Tervaround replied

”So perhaps there is something to it?”

”Ridiculous, no dragon can harm Gnomengard”

The other gnome is carefully approaching Katya “I’m Panana, are you saying you didn’t have those magnificent wings forever”

the gnome from the fireplace shouts “Don’t be daft Panana, she obviously cast magic here. Do you remember that pompous wizard who was going to give a demonstration of his power, he sure looked ridiculous without that magnificent white hair and beard, just like a plucked chicken.”

Panana’s eyes grew wide looking at Katya “You need to be careful if you do magic around a strong source like these mountains.”

The Black Hole

Indeed it is

Robocop?

As the door clicks shut a surprising stillness comes over the room, the ever present noise of the waterfall is completely shut out. Now silence is ringing in your ears.

As you take the time to look around you see a staircase leading downwards to your left. Two of the gnomes are working together on a doughy mass. One of them is squeezing chunks of green msuhrooms through an intricate set of rollers, while the other at the table is taking the green mass and forms loaves out of it.

Another is feeding red mushrooms into a press, and squeezes them hard, catching the released liquid in bottles.

The last one is leaning with a fire poker next to the stove keeping the fire in it blazing.

The gnome that had waved you closer speaks to you "I'm Tervaround. What do folks from Phandalin want in Gnomengard?"

I think I will need another clue

Three Days of the Condor

 

Excellent movie

I felt compelled using something with that time span.

As it is Three days since the last one was solved. I‘ll just kick this back to life.

You step into a room that is immediately recognizable as a kitchen, albeit one designed for shorter folk. All the cabinets reach just your knees. There is a further success as there are apparently a group of five gnomes, both male and female busy with a variety in domestic activities.

One of the closest gnomes buy with stuffing purple pieces of mushroom into a barrel turns to you and puts the hand to the ear. Before shouting in a shrill voice to you "Come closer strangers, but close the door behind you Auros' Whisper is a bit loud today."

Katya you find plenty in the cabinet, mainly cups, plates and cutlery. This reaffirms your suspicion of being in the gnomes dining room.

Gillavar you don’t see anything that feels like a trap, but looking the door you spot a very elaborate locking mechanism, which might be a problem if the door wasn’t standing slightly ajar.

Outside of the room that you have dubbed a dinning room, there is a further set of corridors. One to the east running on for a good bit longer without you being able to see an end. The northern Corridor seems to end in a door. The din of the waterfall is still overbearing

You hear no response to your calls, only the still ever present noise of the Waterfall blanketing out any conversation that isn't shouted.

OOC: your slow progress to this point has taken approx. 15 minutes. The Wings on Katya's back are still there

Lethal Weapon

Of course it is.

Let’s keep this real simple

Please don’t eat the daisies.

You take the tunnel leading northwards. Vala leading with her shield held in front of her all the time as she suddenly steps into a brightly lit room, dominated by a long wooden table surrounded with many chairs. At the far wall is a stout wooden cabinet. Multiple lanterns around the room give it the cheery brightness.

On the opposite wall there is a doorway leading onto a lit passage.

please be so kind and be specific in where you are going, if you make me chose, you might not always like the results.

Hope you're doing better now!

 

AFAIK, we're still moving forward, if there's no response that's what we gotta do.

Thank you quite a bit better.
 

It’s the forward part, were I have the conflicting infos Gilavar pointed you in the first northward leading tunnel, while Makaria suggested going towards the waterfall and bridge, which would be southward.
