The group is ready and Nira gives the barrier a gentle touch. It does not feel like anything, but Nira encounters resistance, like trying to push aside a massive tapestry.
Each member of The Tide squares up and pushes their way in
Hmerrin Highlight to display spoiler: { Its like walking on the ocean floor without aid of any buoyancy. Your feet slide back on the ground with every steps and as you turn to the others you realize you are alone. As you feel deep down is only right. The others are no where to be seen or heard, mentally or otherwise. Again you find yourself thinking they are not needed. This is your time. A voice enters your mind, 'Come now, you're stronger than all that. Who are you? Are you not Legend? Within this lands lie the means for all the Wold to know of the hero Hmerrin' Please make Will save DC 15 and 2 Str checks}
Des Highlight to display spoiler: { Pushing your way in you feel an evil close in around you. It flirts at the edge of your senses, raising the hairs on the back of your neck. Ahead of you some invisible force pushes at you, to deny you entrance to the city. You note the others are gone from your sight and mind, the telepathic connection has been severed and a dark evil chuckle has taken it's place. They would only fail, is that not what the Erkling said. Domi will triumph, all glory unto me. 'Surely you are not the one. Who are you, but a pretender paladin of Domi. Why do you deserve entrance?

Danko Highlight to display spoiler: { The ground has become soft, looking down it has become a short manicured lawn. The rest of the Tide is nowhere to be seen and the telepathic connection is gone as well. Bah, they were a hinderance, always jealous of your greatness, for the love of the games. A sweet female voice calls out from across the lawn in a well decorated pavilion tent, 'And who do we see here with us this day. A legendary scoundrel no doubt.

Nira Highlight to display spoiler: { Some sort of force it slowing you, it reminds youof the last moments before he time bubble enveloped you so long ago. Is this another Teurcurri trap? Yor mind calls out to the others, but they are gone, the spell seems to be supressed within wherever you are. More concerning though is that your companions are nowhere to be seen either. Is time slowing? Creating another trap of deathless life about you? Or was the past few years the dream, the dream of an escape that never truly happened and only now are you pulled back to your timeless prison. A soft candles glow catches your attention from the right. Coming into focus as your eyes adjust is a table, flanked by multiple bookcases, and stacked high with scrolls, loose parchment and several more tomes.

The team is gone from your side and your mind races to even recall who they were. The mental connection you know you did have is gone as well. Perhaps it is best. For this tale will be about you, this is the time to step to the front of the stage. A howling laugh of unbridled joy sounds from ahead, falling into a shout over the wind. 'You? Oh the jest the unseen turn in the story. What could possibly be worth you being here? Oh unremarkable one! But perhaps you will claim the uncounted artifacts, holy relics and items of godlike power.

Away evil, Desdichado says in his mind. Destroy the evil? Yes, if necessary, but not unchecked, unbridled. Whatever you are, that seems more in your line.
Recalling the Erkling's warning, he shakes his head vigorously. "No," he growls. "I don't think so."
The man drops his head and strains forward.

Gaffer's mind flashes to the scenes of the 'farms' they've seen over the last few years. He's very clear on what has been driving him, it isn't power, and he has his friends to help him. They will overcome it together the same way they have everything else.
He does his best to keep pushing forward.

She decides to talk to the voice in the air.
She looks about to see if she can see any signs of movement and then calls out "Hello. Yes, uh, knowledge would be a fantastic prize. You see, we're here to try and prevent an invasion to the Wold, and we're told that an object here could be the key to that.

More seriously he continues, Who am I? I'm Ferrin who ended up on this path because a long time ago I only wanted my family back. At this moment, I want only to get the jewel we've been tasked to get and then leave this accursed place.

Nira recalls the warnings about Fae Skiemir being the city of greed, and she now believes that the voice she can hear is a part of that. It's trying to tempt her with other things. "Thankyou for the suggestions, but no, we're here for one specific item" She doesn't want to tell the voice what it is though.

Inside The Mythal - DM Dan K Monday June 12th, 2023 9:36:11 AM
For each of you, the questions and resistance fades and you find yourself staring at each other and across a field at the fabled city of Fae Skiemir. The sky seems to be in a state of perpetual twilight. 600 feet ahead of you across low-cropped, yellowed grass, is a section of wall 50 feet high composed of huge granite blocks.
Flecks of stucco and paint still cling to some of the blocks. An idyllic forest scene of elf-maid and unicorn; once a masterpiece, as just a common fresco on the outer wall. Not all Luck is bad and you are within sight of what looks to be a fairly recent breech in the walls. In the distance you hear the occasional thunderous rapport of stone on stone. Dust columns rise from various places across the city behind the wall, giving evidence that there is destructive activity occurring.
Ramirez Highlight to display spoiler: { You still feel the pull to find the Blackfire Blade, but it is not compelling or overwhelming )ie, you made the save but the thought is still there0}

Hmerrin blinks and looks around, sighing happily at the sight of his friends.
"So far, so good," he observes wryly. "But I'm thinking we might wanna hold off on the splitting up to scout tactic this time around. I gotta feeling these mind games are just gonna keep coming. Any one of us might succumb and will need someone else around to snap out."
The fighter regards the breach.
"Here we go."
He starts moving purposefully toward the opening, head on a swivel. [Perception 35]
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP:211/211; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 34] Monday June 12th, 2023 4:29:21 PM
"Wait a moment" says Desdichado. "We should probably get out the device Vyrnix gave us to identify this crystal. Maybe we'll get lucky and it will be nearby."
"By the way, does anyone know how it works? Is it like a divining rod?"
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 159/159 AC: 37(T:21/FF:30) CMD:39) Monday June 12th, 2023 4:35:19 PM
As much as Gaffer would enjoy taking to the sky and seeing the city from above, keeping close to each other is sensible thinking and his feet remain on the ground, and human.
"I wonder what it took to do that kind of damage to a wall that size." He thinks aloud, moving up alongside Hmerrin.

Ramirez thinks about the Blackfire Blade. You know, we should probably see whats going on. If there are powerful and destructive items here, I don't think we want any evildoers to get them. Might make them worse than the rakshasa.

Nira has a good look at the wall to try and work out which direction the damage came from. Was something was bursting in or bursting out?
She doesn't need to have both hands free to cast spells so offers to be the one to hold Vyrnix's scale. "No idea Des. Let's just see what happens I guess". Nira's not exactly sure how it works so will start by just holding it, and if that doesn't work, she'll start to slowly turn and see if that gets something to happen.

The group starts moving across the open ground with the resounding claps of stone on stone repeating in the distance at regular intervals. Far off to the northwest? Hmerrin spots a shape in the air, it resembles how a large flight of birds might look in the sky, however this 'cloud' is sending blasts of lightning and beads of fire into the area below where they fly. Occasionally a missile of earth flies skyward from under the magical assault. Closing on the hole, Nira is able to determine the breach was caused by something trying to get in. Ramirez mentions that there may well be, almost assuredly are, other powerful items within the city that the group might want to seek out to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
The party arrives and enters the city through the breach... Inside the walls, what you see is best described as a pristine ruin. The destruction is there, as if it happened an hour ago, but all the blood, bodies, and uncouth debris has been removed. The buildings are alabaster white with spires and other fantastic architecture, mixed with glorious nature.
Waterfalls, fountains, and even elvish music is seen and heard. The streets are wide open with pavement in the center, and a narrow accompanying park/garden on either side with paths meandering through them. The narrow “street gardens” would allow folks to walk on a path to each building and between buildings both for convenience and for those who want to take the more beautiful route.
Nira is able to use the dragon scale to 'sense' a direction to go. Danko experiences the same feeling of a pull down a side street when he touches the scale and so you can begin making their way through the city streets.

"Hmmm...what do you suppose those things are?" asks Desdichado as the group walks through the city following the dragon scale's directions. "A bunch of wizards or something flying around?"
Desdichado is nonplussed at Ramirez's suggestion. "Really? I just want to get this crystal and get out of here as quickly as possible. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other treasure hunters around and I'd rather avoid them if possible."
Ramirez (BrianZ) AC32/20/25 HP 43/122 CMD32 Tuesday June 13th, 2023 6:06:04 PM You may be right Des. But I had a vision of a powerful black sword. And a strong desire to get it. I still feel it a little. I think that sword might be here. I also think if something evil got a hold of it, the Wold will be remembering the good old days when they only had to worry about evil shapeshifting outsiders.
If someone is actively trying to breach the defenses here, I don't think that is just treasure seekers.

The fighter shakes his head slowly in response to Ramirez. "I suspect there are all kinds of unpleasant items in here, but everybody we talk to says its a lot easier getting in than getting out. And I'm leary of anything those voices told us in the barrier.

Hmerrin takes the lead and follows Nira's directions. A short discussion comes up on other treasures and artifacts with most of the group voicing there opinion to stay on the single task. Get the crystal for Vyrnix and get out
30 minutes later, you arrive at a small square with a beautiful fountain of a nymph holding a pitcher,. Water flows from the pitcher to a marble tiled pool at her feet. the craftsmanship is beyond compare. Peaceful music can be heard from somewhere overhead, but no source can be seen. In contrast, a battle is happening right off to your right at the next intersection over 100’ away.
Lying on his back a black skinned muscular giant, A fire giant. His great sword lies on the ground near him. Upon his chest is an equally large wolf hound with an armored coat, spiked collar and war helmet. Fire spews from its jaws, which the giant is trying to pull apart [Know Planes DC 17] Highlight to display spoiler: { Nyessian Hellhound albeit x2 the normal size}
Suddenly there is a loud ‘crack’ as the giant snaps the wolf jaws and it falls dead upon the giants chest. A “golden strand” appears just above the hound and begins tracing off into the city. The fire giant eyes the golden strand and begins to rise and go after it, only to pause as a very loud stomping sound is heard and the ground starts to shake with each 'stomp'
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP:211/211; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 34] Wednesday June 14th, 2023 5:45:53 PM Right, Desdichado sends, Think we should ask the giant that just pulled a monster apart with his bare hands if he needs help or should we just stay out of his way?

{And what's the deal with that strand? Do they even stay dead or do they wake up back in the city?}

She really hopes that 'strand' doesn't mean the monster is going to come to life again somewhere in the city. Could that strand be a 'soul' of some kind?
Nira is with Gaffer. If whatever is coming causes the jaw-snaping giant to pause, it's a good time to get out of sight.

A quick consensus is formed and teh group looks to get hidden and out of way of whatever is coming. Concealing positions are easy to come by and the group quickly does so near the fountain and within a nearby first floor. The ground continues to shake at regular intervals. The giant scrambles to his feet and grabs his great sword. It blazes of life with a amber glow and lightning crackling down the blade.
The gold strand continues to move away at about 10' a second. What the gold strand may be remains a mystery. It is simply outside of anyone study and or experience or rumor. Things might not stay dead here. Does that include The Tide? Is it a marker of some kin? A soul that could be captured and used? The possibilities are near endless.
The giant looks in your direction, his face showing he spotted movement but nothing more. The face of trained warrior in hostile territory that needs to keep his head on a swivel if he expects to keep it. The looks back to the strand and starts to follow
The speed of the stomps increases
[Perception DC 15] You notice that the Mythal above the intersection before the party has just turned a bright blue and the music in the air changes to a faster tempo with full orchestration.
Exploding through one of the far buildings, accompanied with a crecendo in the music, is a huge Earth Elemental. Towering nearly 30' and almost as wide. It stops before the giant and with a kick, sends him hard to the ground and into another building across the street.
The Mythal turns red and begins to swirl with splotches of both red and blue.
The giant points his blade and a bolt of lightning rolls forth and slams the elemental, blasting chunks from it.

She considers the mythal, but having never been here before or having any information to draw on she just has a guess. "Perhaps it means there's a fight in progress? If so, maybe we hide whenever we see it turn red?"
It's just a thought. As to the current battle: "We don't know which one to help, and taking sides could go either way"

Gaffer wasn't paying much attention to the mythal, his eyes glued to the vast elemental instead, suddenly finding his summoning skills inadequate, and excited to see what this being can do.

Fae Skiemir Front row seats - DM Dan K Friday June 16th, 2023 9:24:29 AM
The party keeps communications open through the telepathic Bond and hunkers down to observe the conflict. Each for their own reasons is curious to how this might play out.
The giant pivots and feints with his weapon and scores several more hits on the elemental. The great creature of earth slams down hard, taking the giant in the shoulder and as it does, the elemental envelops the giants arm in earth. The giant relinquishes his now useless weapon and begins simply punching the elemental in the side of its head, over and over. The elemental straightens, accepting the blows and pile drives the giant into the street. It is about to lift and repeat when a grinding noise is heard and even 100' away you can feel the ground vibrating. By the combatants, this vibration is enough to set the debris about the battlefield dancing across the ground. The giant, beaten and bloodied, now only seems concerned with getting away from the area. The elemental looks down at its feet and instantly lets go of the giant. The giant scampers to his feet, forgetting his blade and heads away at full speed. the elemental turns to flee back in direction it came from.
Seconds later, the road under the intersection heats up and melts and a heartbeat later a colossal two-headed Linnorm bursts through the ground roars. The heads start scanning in all directions. Passing over the party in your hiding place, the fleeing giant and elemental to come to rest on the path of the glowing gold beaded trail. Apparently content that all challengers have fled, it trumpets and then follows the golden trail, thankfully away from you
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP:211/211; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 34] Friday June 16th, 2023 6:01:27 PM
The fire giant and earth elemental run away, and then the Linnorm breaks through the ground before moving off as well.
Warily peaking out from his hiding spot, Desdichado exasperatedly sends, Remind me again why we agreed to be here.
Nira, Danko - does the scale point us toward that golden trail, too? I'd rather avoid it if we can.

"Bralin's Beard," Hmerrin breathes quietly. "They just get bigger and bigger."
The man considers for a moment. "The lesson being, fights attract more fighters. All the more reason to stay on task."
He glances over at Nira to get a direction, and then moves out, staying along the edge of the street. [Perception 35]
Ramirez (BrianZ) AC32/20/25 HP 43/122 CMD32 Saturday June 17th, 2023 11:08:24 PM Those golden strands must be really important. Might be a good idea to keep an eye out for them.

Fae Skiemir through the city - DM Dan K Monday June 19th, 2023 5:08:08 PM
Hmerrin sums up what he's figured out and looks to Danko and Nira. The two give a nod off to the left and across the intersection with the fountain. A heading generally away from the combat moments ago and the golden bead that seemed to garner so much attention.
Leaving the last battle the party hurries down streets and side alleyways at the direction of Danko and Nira, and the dragon's scale. You passes by half burnt and gnarled trees, ruined mansions of marble and granite, broken statues, fountains and other public works. The vegetation, however, looks as though it has been lovingly tended; shrubs in exotic shapes, grass perfectly manicured, deadfall and detrius meticulously cleaned. It is as if the city has been perfectly preserved at a single moment of time… And all about is the Mythal has returned to a light gray, nearly transparent shield, as if mocking all who are trapped within the ruined city.
Overhead a pair of gargantuan shadows move across the sky. Looking up you spy 4 great Rocs with Giant riders, possibly cloud giants, fleeing from a flight or rather a horde of Nightmares who in turned are being pursued by a flight of Horned Devils.
In the distance comes a great thunderous crash as a building somewhere else within this massive city collapses.
There is little time to lose and the scale grows warm

Ramirez' earlier comment about the golden strands being important resonates with Hmerrin.
He nods thoughtfully. "If one comes our way, without all that [waves at passing rocs, nightmares, devils] coming with it, we can check it out.
But seriously, this place gives me the creeps."
The fighter continues moving in the direction Nira indicates.
Fae Skiemir end of the line - DM Dan K Tuesday June 20th, 2023 5:07:19 PM
Another mile of twisting streets, small allies and ducking from the sight of the sounds of close combat and you come to a corner of two nearly intact buildings to come to what was once a city square.
This square has the ruins of a tower in the center and the fractured stump of an ancient tree. While there used to be several ways in and out of the square, most of the egresses have been sealed with rubble. On one side of the tower is a large fire and two carcasses of humanoids are roasting. In a corner is a pit covered by an iron grill and sitting around grinning are a group of Cyclops. “Sure wuz nice ter get them humans Bert.” “Ayup, dem gnomes had too much fat on em, Deen.” “An’ elves iz too stringalee, Clem.” “Hurr, Hurr, Hurr. Da black one sure pay nice, eh?” says the first one again, as it pokes a massive stick into the pit, and an angry voice responds. “Shut your pie hole, you filthy abominations! Kill me and my ghost will haunt you for the rest of your lives and then some!” The cyclops all think this is extremely funny.
Then ‘Clem’ Cyclops looks up, sniffing. “GOLD!”, and greedily shouts, and all of them turn their faces towards you! “More stooopid humans carrying gold” One Cyclops sends a thundering hand into the ground, sending a shockwave rippling through the city street tiles. The second holds his hand to the sky, darkening clouds quickly gather and lighting strikes to his hand from the sky to form into a crackling blade. The third becomes wreathed in flame which also partially forms into the appearance of a great sword.

As the cyclops chuckle and and start forward, the Mythal above begins to darken towards a red color and music begins playing. Some sort of battle of the chello and obo. Ramirez, only barely able to see one Cyclops, moves up next to Des to get line of affect to where he can cast Song of Discord to catch 2 of the creatures in the affect. The spell harmonizies with the chello and seems to be amplified about the cyclops Fail and save Nira flies to the side for a better angle as well and casts Confusion save save save Danko casts steps left and casts Chain Lightning, but the spell fizzles at it leaves his fingertips. The Mythal flashes above. Hmerrin moves up and engages. His axe bites the cyclops in the thigh. Gaffer decides to bring in some other big friends to help and casts a spell. The Mythal above flashes red and the spell fizzles Des moves in with Hmerrin
The cyclops up front shakes his head in a confused state. The giant stands there stupidly before roaring in rage and sends a mighty fist into his companion. The just hit cyclops yells back 'Clem, hey whatcha stoopid hands!" he moves up an hurls a dwarf sized rock at Ramirez.

Did it darknen above anyone in particular? Did the chimes have a pattern to them when spells were cast? From what she can tell, Gaffer's spell failed, hers was normal, and Ram's was a little better. That sort of unpredictability could be very concerning to the casters in the group.
Nira targets the cyclops running around the ruins with a spell she hopes will slow it down, whilst keeping an eye (and ear) out on the mythal.

The oddity of several spells gives just cause for the casters of the party to worry. Each glance skyward to the Mythal for clues, but it would certainly require more than a momentary glance to discern anything definitive, but it certainly appears to be impacting the spell affects upon casting. Ramirez, his head still rock free, casts Heroism Feeling the spell bolster himself as he expected. Nira casts Suffocation at the cyclops coming around the tower. Danko steps to his forward right and uses his draconic heritage to breath forth a mighty blast of lightning into 2 of the cyclops Gaffer points his staff and sends forth a green line striking the cyclops Hmerrin chops and bleeds the cyclops before him in a massive onslaught Dmg 90+34+30+28+19 = 252 crit 2 normal Des attacks as well, bleeding the cyclops with multiple deep strikes.
With each spell and even during one of Hmerrin's strikes, the Mythal flashed and pulsed in the sky above
The cyclops before Des and Hmerrin roars in pain and defiance. The street itself cracks under the creature as if it had suddenly gained an enormous amount of weight. Muscles bulge and Hmerrin is the target of its wrath. of the three massive strikes, he connects twice Hmerrin Hit AC 49/41/31 Dmg 49+46 The second cyclops also can reach the dual axe fighter and strikes hard, rage pouring out in a thunderous shout that shakes the plaster from nearby buildings. the first blow is hastily made and misses.

Hmerrin is reeling so badly after the battering by the cyclopi that he completely lucks into stumbling precisely in the direction where the bubbles blast him upright.

Ramirez keeps his feet and fires several arrows. The first into the heavily wounded Cyclops, killing it. the next 2 to the next target in his line.

The druid wild shapes into an Air elemental providing flight and thus circumnavigating the slippery ground.

Nira then targets another cyclops with a powerful spell Nira believes the spell did affect the first Cyclops The Mythal flickers bright red and Nira can feel the interference to her spell. Danko slides left and sends barrage of Magic Missiles that streak perfectly into the target

Des moves on the prone cyclops amd lands a strike. The Cyclops lashes out as he closes. Des Hit AC 38 Dmg 54 Danko casts Finger of Death and the cyclops grunts as the spell takes ahold. Ramirez fires several more shots into the cyclops fighting Des. Nira casts Blindness/Deafness and the cyclops takes on a puzzled expression, though Nira does not think it is blind. The affect seems to be similar to magical confusion. Gaffer rises from the ground and touches Hmerrin to Heal him. Unfortunately, Hmerrin once again finds himself at the epicenter of a bubble explosion. Hmerrin holds his position as the Heal spell did nothing for his wounds.
The Cyclops right in front of Des pushes his massive ugly face right up to Des and sticks his tongue out and gives a mighty 'plllbbbbbt!' followed by some nonsensical words.
The other Cyclops rises again to his feet and bellows.
A voice from the pit calls out, "Yea that's right you big oaf's and there is more where that's coming from too!"
The cyclops's nonsensical encroachment in Desdichado's face causes him to laugh out loud. Unfortuantely, it also distracts him as the bubbles once again explode into a greasy mess around him and he falls on his back.
(Reflex 10 save: 31, pass).

Hmerrin looks back at Gaffer in confusion. He still feels like, well, like two cyclops beat the stuffing out of him.
Another explosion of bubbles and voices from a pit. Somehow, he keeps his feet. [Reflex 33]
"I hate this place," he mumbles through his swollen face.
Walking seems problematic, and he's in no condition for melee anyway.
The fighter stows his axes. His bow flashes to his hands, and he fires a shot at Dez' opponent. Bubbles explode and the shot goes very much astray.

Nira flies behind Hmerrin and tries her luck at healing him. Her Blindness spell acted like a Confuse spell. She's hoping her Heal spell doesn't work like a Blindness spell. Could it be that previous effects get replicated in some way? She doesn't have enough information just yet, so has to hope that the spell works as intended.
"Would it be too much to hope that the prisoner has the gem and we can soon go home?"

The bubble explosion sends some to their backside. Des being one of them, gets back up Hmerrin manages to stay on his feet and switches to his bow, firing one errant shot.

Des keeps attacking and with each powerful strike a deep bruise appears on the cyclops. Danko casts Lightning Bolt catching the cyclops in the chest with a burn. Ramirez fires arrows, and puts three more into the beast. Hmerrin fires arrows at Des's opponent, but in doing so opens himself to an attack. Hmerrin AoO Hit AC 44 Dmg 52 Gaffer casts another Summoning and a Large Air Elemental appears. The swarms continue to sting and bite at the huge cyclops.

Hmerrin brings the bow up and the cyclops clobbers him.
The fighter tries something else. Maybe making the big guy move will result in an advantage.

Des keeps attacking and finallay puts the cyclops down. Beaten and bruised, it passes out. Hmerrin moves out of the great reach of these monsters and fires an arrow into its chest. Ramirez fires another set of the arrowas as well Nira pulls a staff from her Haversack and touches Hmerrin and learns that the Mythal chaos of magic can affect items as well. the spell fails. Danko casts Lightning, causing a mind boggling 3rd occurance of a bubble explosion instead of the intended spell Gaffer moves in and strikes along with the summoned elementals and the last cyclops wobbles and then collapses
One Cyclops lies dead and the other two are unconscious. The conflict lasted a mere 36 seconds and seems to have escaped the notice of any other denizens of Fae Skiemir. On the far side of the courtyard, with his height advantage, Gaffer notices a small floating bead sized object that is glowing gold. It hovers above a sizable collection of treasure.
The same voice calls out from the caged pit again, “Brilliant work! Help a brother out perhaps? Give the old grate a lift and I’ll be off with a thank you!”
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP:157/211; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 34] Friday June 30th, 2023 6:16:52 PM

Nira shakes the staff a couple of times and then tries to cast her Heal spell on Hmerrin again.
"Do we want to just let him go? Perhaps we can ask some questions first? Maybe he knows a little more about how this place works, what the golden threads are, and perhaps how the mythal is affecting our spells"

Gaffer plans to wait until they are clear of the bubble ground until he transforms back, though he does dismiss the air elemental. He flies a little higher into the air to keep a look out for any trouble while Des handles the prisoner.

Once healed up by Nira, Hmerrin works his way over to the pile of treasure Gaffer surely mentions seeing.
He takes in the gold thread hovering over it. "Gold threads might mean 'Ownerless Treasure'," he observes.
The man scoops up what he can, before something else comes along.

Desdichado looks askance at Hmerrin picking up the treasure as he moves toward the cage, but says nothing. He'd rather not take anything from this place except Vyrnix's gem.
I'm not leaving someone in a cage, especially with the city falling apart around us, he sends. Ask him anything you want, but I want to move quickly. Who knows how long it will take to find this crystal and time keeps ticking away.
Fae Skiemir The Man in the Box - DM Dan K d100=67 ; Monday July 3rd, 2023 4:05:40 PM
Des heads over to the covered cage and finds a 10x10x15 pit covered with a set of bars that don't look to be connected to anything, probably just extraordinarily heavy. At the bottom is human with possible elven heritage wearing not much and with obvious signs of violence visited upon him in the recent past. Nira tries the Heal from the staff and the spell fails The spell is also consumed as if cast Gaffer moves up to get a look about and does not see anything specifically heading in the party's direction. Smoke rises from the south and a tall spire to the east sways as if something large just impacted it lower down. Danko and Ramirez also head over to the grate with a few questions Hmerrin heads over to the golden bead and the pile of treasure. The pile is substantial, with 10's of thousands of loose coins, maybe half being gold and the quick visual shows jewelry and gems as well as the tell tale 3 points of a trident. What may lie concealed is anyone's guess.
The man in hole answers, "The name is Irblis and well, i got here by not being as successful as your fine band at battling the cyclops." He gives Danko an odd look before waving off the offer of the carrot. "So what do say, give the bars there a heave ho?"

Haversack open and on the ground, Hmerrin's hand hovers over the pile of gold, Gaffer's thought bouncing around in his brain.
"Pickles," he mutters, sourly. The man leaves the treasure alone.
Making his way back over to the cage, grabs the bars with Ramirez, and gives it a heave ho. [Str check 23] He extends a hand to help the fellow out of the cage.
"Hello, Irblis. We're The Tide. We're new in town. Any idea what the golden bead hovering over that pile of goodies signifies?"

Nira's 3rd use of the staff to heal Hmerrin is successful. Gaffer's thoughts on what the gold bead may mean stops Hmerrin in his tracks of gathering the treasure Ramirez and Hmerrin, with some additional help from Des and Gaffer, are able to move the grate over the pit. Moments later, a smiling Irblis is hoisted up.
"The Tide huh and that?"[/b] his eyes light up, "That is a beautiful sight, that's what that is. Although I would have thought there would be 3 beads, one for each dead....wait a minute." He looks over to the cyclops and grows nervous. "You didn't kill em? You folks have some brass that's for sure. Treasure is all yours, spend it wisely. I'm beatin feet." He finishes as he turns to leave talking quite fast, "Beads of the dead reveal their treasure hoards Thanks for the save."

Irblis' words also imply that killing the downed Cyclopes would reveal more treasure, but Gaffer isn't inclined to point that out for the moment.
"So when we saw the wolf die, that creature that appeared was chasing their treasure threads... We should get out of here sharpish then?"

Nira looks at the gemstones that Hmerrin is collecting. "If creatures are so set on chasing treasure here then perhaps we can even use gems like that as a distraction. Get creatures to chase those instead of chasing us?"
She checks to see if the gems continue to have a gold thread above them once they've been collected by Hmerrin.
Fae Skiemir - DM Dan K Thursday July 6th, 2023 9:10:16 AM
He's fully trusted, but the feeling is probably mutual and Irblis scampers over one of the makeshift roadblocks and disappears from view. Hmerrin accepts that the treasure is there for the taking and starts taking. Specifically culling through the large pile and grabbing gemstones. In the first few minutes he figures out there is a good amount of objects buried in the coins, a Cloak, Trident, Bracers and likely more. He has found a Pink and Green stone, several rubies the size of a gamblers die, and a sapphire and white gold ring. Nira adds the thought that is the occupants of Fae Skiemir are so obsessed with treasure, might it be a means of distraction as well.

Nira looks upwards, specifically to see if there are any of those golden trails above the party. If there are, then stealth may not be an option.
She's not sure how she feels about walking into the partially collapsed building. It just feels like being outside has advantages in this place. Still, if that's where the crystal is then that's where they have to go.
