Grotto of the Goddesses, Part 2

<DM>	(okay, No Rain in the Desert just started playing, and holy crap it's awesome already)
<Amilena>	(Isn't it though?)
<Amilena>	(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFzsMhwU3RE)
<DM>	(It's like... Oracle of Seasons meets Secret of Mana. Eeeeeeeepiiiiiiiiiiic.)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((*INSERT SMW CUSTOM MUSIC*))
<Amilena>	(That dungeon always had the best music of any of them anyways.)
<Amilena>	Also, I just want to point out that I had a badass moment super early with this character, unlike Kirran's opening flubfest.
<DM>	*Last time! WindStrike had to come up with a quest in 90 minutes, so he just grabbed all his WIP Twilight Princess enemies and tossed 'em in. Anyhow...*
<DM>	*You were kicked in front of house filled with pot...s. A young woman told you of her lunatic uncle going around and trying to "test" people around the village. He recently disappeared right after rumors of a mysterious forest near Lon Lon Ranch appeared. You decided to head over there and investigate, only to find out it was the darn Forest of Illusions from SMW.*
<DM>	*After Lightwulf mysteriously disappeared, and after some winds kept changing the darn moonlit forest around, you ran into some shadowy dude. As described, it's the description of Bloodwind, except the cloak was black instead of dark red, and he was carrying a spear. He attacked you randomly, but Amilena retailiated and appeared to kill him in one shot.*
<Amilena>	(like a boss)
<DM>	*You then tripped into a hole down one of the paths, and found yourself surrounded by various foes.*
<Amilena>	(Not like a boss)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((And DM here assumed that I rolled into the hole. What an idiot))
<DM>	*And through shenanigans that are best described as "I totally railroaded that", Serikka_Tonatsu somehow rolled into the hole with the rest of the party.*
<DM>	yeah, that
<Amilena>	(Heh)
<DM>	nah, I won't deny it
<DM>	I completely railroaded that one
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((THAT'S ILLEGAL))
<Amilena>	(Donut shaped holes)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((PUNISHMENT FOR YOU!))
<DM>	-=QUEST RESUUUUUUUUME!=-
<DM>	*You all land in pile of oversized leaves. Around you is a stone dungeon, covered with various plants that are way larger than you all.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu attempts to commit suicide due to DM overriding something
<DM>	*Just then, two shadowy figures appear from one of the brushes. One of them is humanoid and the other appears to be walking on all fours.*
<Kappa>	(Weren't we about to enter battle)
<DM>	(IN THEORY)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((I DUNNO MAN))
<Kappa>	(Maliki was already in.
<DM>	(oh wait, he was?
<DM>	(DERP)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((DM IS ALL OVER THE PLACE))
<DM>	*ignore that last line
<DM>	*SO ABOUT THAT BATTLE
<Maliki>	(is this that crazy woods thing?"
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((DM NO))
<DM>	(yes it is)
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE MUSIC))
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F87G84HnVeU))
<DM>	*Something ripples through the ground around you as the two bees from above drop in. From one of the brushes closest to you all appears a Baba Serpent, which loudly hisses at you all.*
<DM>	(enemy profiles are and have been up - http://zurpg.sephiroth.ws/thread-524.html

<DM>	*The three of you head east, down the sandy path. Amilena, you were the first one to take point.... as your feet enter the sand, they immediately sink. The sand is now covering halfway to your knees.*
<DM>	*You don't appear to be sinking more than that... yet.*
<Amilena>	You know, I'm starting to think this place was designed by a sadist.
<Amilena>	Anyone have a long stick?
<Maliki>	"i have a realy big hammer will that work"
<Amilena>	If it can reach, yeah.
*	Maliki trys to reach out with the realy big hammer over to Amilena
*	Amilena is very careful not to flail about or move too much.
<DM>	(she only took a step or two in, so the hammer should reach by default)
*	Maliki hauls Amilena out of the sand and smiles
<Maliki>	"you sure you wanna go this way?"
<Kappa>	...I wish I had that raft I saw at the Happy Mask shop.
<Amilena>	It's nothing I haven't dealt with before...er, heard about dealing with before.
<Amilena>	Thanks for the rescue though.
<Amilena>	I owe you one.
<DM>	(I have no idea if anything in the DOTA shop would help)

<Maliki>	"so shall we?"
<Amilena>	Yeah. Carefully though.
<Kappa>	I will be right behind.

*	Kappa slowly and carefully treads the sand, keeping his legs spread well apart.
*	Amilena looks for a deku stick or something like it in the vicinity
<DM>	*Maliki, you step into the sand and yep, sure enough, courtesies of your heavy hammer, you sink even more. The sand for you is above your knees.*
*	Maliki holds out the hammer to one side
<Amilena>	Lay back slowly.
*	Herian pulls malik out of the sand
<Amilena>	That'll keep you from sinking further in.
<Maliki>	"right "
<Maliki>	"how are going to get across this"?
<Kappa>	Keep your legs spread apart too.
<DM>	*Kappa, you enter, and you don't sink as much as the other two.*
<Kappa>	It will help spread your weight around.
<DM>	*Maliki, you're pulled out by Herian.*
<Kappa>	*out
<DM>	*It seems you're able to move just fine Kappa, albeit a bit slowed down.*
<Amilena>	Well, considering that this seems to be a moat, maybe we don't cross it...
*	Amilena keeps looking for a long stick somewhere in the foliage.
<DM>	*There is a long stick in the foliage indeed. It's wedged between some other foliage though.*
*	Amilena eyes the foliage

<Amilena>	I wonder if they make a spell for relieving headaches...
<DM>	*The button sits there... and stares blankly at you all.*
*	Amilena stares back at the button.
*	Maliki presses the button!
<Kappa>	The Haddaken seem to be have a gift for checking mechanics.

<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((NOT REALLY PEACEFUL))
<DM>	*There's a slight split up ahead. The path ends going west, where you see a treasure chest on a pit of sand. Prior to that, there's a turn, where the path changes to going north.*

<DM>	(lol)
*	Serikka_Tonatsu throws a Wooden Sword towards the north direction.
<DM>	*Suddenly, the shield is launched from beneath the sand. It lands with a THUNK next to you. You can see some of the wood chipped away, and the metallic parts are partially dissolved.*
<DM>	*You throw the Wooden Sword in the north direction. It spikes the ground, and nothing comes around to eat it.*

<DM>	*A light breeze passes through. Then, the shadowy figure from before appears before you, this time armed with a shield.*

*	ShadowyFigure does not seem to stare. Actually, you can't tell, given there's a Bloodwind-style veil of darkness over his face.
*	ShadowyFigure takes a few steps towards you.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu doesn't say anything.

*	ShadowyFigure rushes towards you... and stops suddenly, this time 2 feet in front of you.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu still doesn't do anything.
*	ShadowyFigure puts the naginata away and then bows to you.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu doesn't respond. But still thinks about what might happen next.
*	ShadowyFigure backs away and picks up the shield. He then disappears, similiarly to when he was hit by the spell earlier.

<DM>	*Nothing happens.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes two more steps and stops.
<DM>	*Nothin'.*

<DM>	*You're halfway through the north path! Congrats! ........ nothin'.*

<DM>	*You're standing on top of them both.*
<DM>	*Where the sword stabbed the ground, you notice a small red glow.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu picks up the shield while doing nothing at all.
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((Video Game Logic))
*	Serikka_Tonatsu looks at the red glow.
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((Is the shield still useful or is it meh))
<DM>	(It might be. Unless you picked up a better shield.)

*	Serikka_Tonatsu keeps walking over to the turn.
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((Thanks))
*	Serikka_Tonatsu stops at the turn
<DM>	*You get to the turn, and down the path to the east, you can see a split about 30 feet ahead. Right where the split is, the ground is uninterrupted by any plants or sand. Just plain stone.*

<DM>	*Nothin'.*
<DM>	*You're halfway to that split.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu looks around.
<DM>	*You look around. The stone ceiling is still visible, and you can see a variety of plants around you. Around where the split is, you can see a slight rattle in the plants near it.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu waits while looking at the rattle.
<DM>	*The rattle continues for a bit...... and stops.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes a step forward, still eying where the rattling happened.
<DM>	*The rattle returns as you take a step towards it. It then stops.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes a step back, while still eying where the rattle occured.
<DM>	*Nothin'.*
<DM>	*There's a rattle in the plants to your left, about 5 feet behind you.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes a step forward, keeping eyes on the area where that rattling happened.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu stares at the rattling spot while doing nothing.
<DM>	*The rattling from where the split is returns. Now there's two spots rattling..... one behind you, and one ahead of you.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu performs an eye-trickery and looks at both rattling spots.

*	Serikka_Tonatsu gets down and walks ahead
<DM>	*The rupees magically magnetize to your position on the tree branch.*
<DM>	*You get down and walk ahead. The stone spot on the ground is directly in front of you. It's covering where the splitoff is.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu pokes the stone
<DM>	*The split off is... two paths. One continuing straight ahead to a wooden door to the east; the other path going north towards a stone door with a gem of light above the door.*

<Serikka_Tonatsu>	Should I just copy and paste what happened in a word document
<DM>	sure

-=MEANWHILE=-

<Maliki>	could i reroll this?
<DM>	*The blade was outright rejected by the handle. Reroll or not, it would still turn to dust.*
<Maliki>	ahhh
<Maliki>	wrong blade
<Maliki>	got ya
<Maliki>	"well that smarts"
<Maliki>	"So shall we keep on keeping on folks?"
<Kappa>	Yes, but after we take the remaining Magic and Heart container.
<Amilena>	Back the way we came from I guess.
<DM>	*There's still the west, grassy path.*
<Amilena>	Wonder what ever happened to our silent partner.
<Kappa>	I don't know.
<DM>	(anyone wanna try that ping box out or wait?)
*	Amilena in the background, starts fiddling with the box.
<Amilena>	Wonder what this thing does, anyways...
<Kappa>	Anyone want an extra Heart or Magic container?
<Amilena>	I'll take another heart, if no one else needs it.
<Maliki>	"i'm good for now"
<Kappa>	And I will take another Magic Container.
*	Amilena tries putting a little magic on the box.
<Amilena>	Hmm...
<DM>	*Your magic activates the box, and you hear a dinging sound...*
<DM>	*The dinging sound seems to be getting quieter and quieter until you hear silence.*
<Maliki>	"Well that was annoying"
<DM>	*It starts coming back, louder and louder. The box then rumbles, and the dinging stops.*
<Amilena>	(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wshyX6Hw52I)
<DM>	*A light shoots up from the box, and you can see a floating number above it: 10
<DM>	(fyi, Ping Box is including yourself and the rest of your party with the ping)
<Maliki>	"what on earth is that thing?"
<Kappa>	I don't know
<Amilena>	Apparently, it's a machine that goes "ping" and displays numbers.
<Amilena>	Just a guess, but it might be an echolocation sort of deal, like a Keese.
<DM>	*The light glows a little more and says... "10 Entities"
*	Amilena checks for a Keese and Co. logo on the box.
<DM>	*You fail to find any sort of logo.*
*	DM paints a KEESE AND CO. logo onto Amilena's back secretly.
<Maliki>	"ok lets see theres us three"
<Maliki>	"four sorry"
<Maliki>	"so theres about 6 creatures around here in the pings distance?
<Kappa>	5 with Serikka
<Amilena>	Who?
<Maliki>	"huh?"
<DM>	(Ahhhhh....... names.)
*	DM edits Kappa's line.
<DM>	*5 with that silent one*
<Kappa>	(I think I broke the 4th wall)
<Maliki>	"well if shes in range of the ping"
<Maliki>	"so forward or backward guys?"
<Kappa>	Those tentacles may also count as an entity.
<Amilena>	I certainly hope the hell not.
<Kappa>	So we have possibly 6 accounted for.
<Amilena>	Might as well go back since there seems to be no actual path further this way after all.
<Maliki>	"right then lets get moving!"
*	Maliki walks back along the path!
*	Amilena shoots a look at the 4th wall briefly.
*	Kappa walks along the path.
*	Amilena walks along the path
<DM>	*The 4th wall is covered. Didn't I tell you that when I told you that there's too many large plants covering your view of the walls?*
<Maliki>	(no?)
*	Maliki heads up along the grassy path
<Amilena>	(I keep forgetting we're underground. Amilena may be a little delusional.)
<DM>	*From somewhere to the north, you can hear something screech out in pain.*
<Maliki>	"can you guys run?"
<Kappa>	Yeah.
<Amilena>	Yep.
<DM>	*From where you are on the path, it goes west a little bit towards a treasure chest, which is on top of a pit of sand. The path splits off to the north as well.*
<Kappa>	(do we have to cross the pit of sand?)
*	Maliki trys to figgure out what way the noise came from
<DM>	*errr
<Amilena>	So there was sand in both directions? Weird.
<DM>	*It's a split path first. Then, to the west is the pit; to the north is a path.*
*	Kappa looks out to keep a lock on where the sound came from
<Amilena>	(So we came from the West?)
<DM>	(You came from the East)
<Amilena>	(But the pit is where the treasure chest we just opened is, yes?)
<Kappa>	(No)
<DM>	*Oooooookay
<Kappa>	(Oh derp)
<DM>	*From where you started, to the east path was a large pit of sand. Across that was a button.*
<DM>	*To the west path, it continued a bit, and then split off. A little farther to the west is a treasure chest sitting on top of a smaller pit of sand; to the north, the path continues.*
<Kappa>	I say we go north.
<Maliki>	ok then
*	Maliki heads north
<Kappa>	We need to find out if that scream was from that quiet girl.
*	Amilena considers the treasure chest.
*	Kappa follows Maliki
<Amilena>	Wonder why our friend didn't open that treasure chest.
<Maliki>	"probly figgured it to be a trap
<DM>	*You all head north. At the end of the path, it turns to the east again.*
<Amilena>	Maybe one of us should be drawing a map.
<Kappa>	Yeah.
<Maliki>	"i wouldn't bother"
<Kappa>	Except the forest was acting strangely.
<Maliki>	"This place STINKS of magic"
<Maliki>	"these paths won't be there by the time we turn around"
*	Amilena looks around for any sign of the missing memeber of the party.
<DM>	(still running down the path?)
<Maliki>	(yes
<Kappa>	(yes)
<Amilena>	(I'm keeping a slower pace.)
<DM>	*You reach the end of the path and see the corpses of two BabaSerpents. About 30 feet down the path, you see Serikka_Tonatsu... and some blades hovering near the ceiling. They seem to be turning themselves towards Serikka.*
<Amilena>	(What with the whole looking for tracks potentially thing.)
<Amilena>	Hey guys. I found her.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu looks up
<DM>	*Serikka, you hear a female voice from behind you. It's Amilena.*
<DM>	*You also see some blades, which are now falling directly on you. Roll Courage to dodge!*

<Maliki>	"hi there"
*	Serikka_Tonatsu looks at the group
<Kappa>	How are you?
<Maliki>	"having fun by your self?"
<DM>	*It appears your voice either doesn't reach 30 feet away or she's totally just not responding.*
*	Serikka_Tonatsu doesn't respond at all.
<Kappa>	Hmm... is that the corpses of Baba Serpents I see lying around.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu nods
<Kappa>	If that's the case, then looks like there are only three more entities in this dungeon.
*	Amilena uses the box that goes "ping" again
<Kappa>	After us that is.
<DM>	*The ping goes outwards... and returns once again.*
<DM>	*The ping reads: 6 Entities*
<Kappa>	So... looks like us and just one more entitity.
<Amilena>	Just one extra then. Hmm...
*	Maliki walks over to Serikka_Tonatsu  and offers a hand smiling gently "need a hand up?"
<Kappa>	I think we should go back for the chest we saw earlier.
<DM>	*You walk to Serikka, and you find the path splits again.*
*	Sephiroth kicks Amilena out the window.
<Kappa>	(Lag!)

<DM>	.....................
<DM>	how
<DM>	........
*	Serikka_Tonatsu shakes her head and gets up herself
<Maliki>	"right then"
<DM>	*Continuing east is a wooden door on the other side. Splitting north is a path towards a stone door; above the door is a gem of light embedded in the archway.*
*	Sephiroth wonders where the metal door is.
<Maliki>	"any ideas folks ?"
<DM>	*And yes, there's still that treasure chest from earlier that you all passed by.*
<Kappa>	I say we go back for the chest we saw earlier.
<Maliki>	"any objections?"
<Amilena>	Heh, that's what I was thinking.
<Amilena>	Better check it for traps thought. And tentacles.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu pulls out the Old, Round Shield that she used earlier
<DM>	(rollin' back there then?
*	Serikka_Tonatsu taps the shield to let the other know
<Kappa>	(Yep)
<DM>	*You all head on back to where the treasure chest was.*
<Sephiroth>	was, ... guessing it got up and walked off?
*	Serikka_Tonatsu is still tapping the shield
<DM>	(err, what are you tapping the shield for?)
<Maliki>	"are you mute? once for yes twice for no"
<Maliki>	(comunication
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((* Serikka_Tonatsu taps the shield to let the other know))
*	Serikka_Tonatsu taps the shield once.
<Maliki>	"that explains so much"
<DM>	*The shield she's tapping on appears chipped away, with the metal partially dissolved.*
<Maliki>	"ok umm is there a problem with the chest?"
*	Serikka_Tonatsu shows everyone the shield
<Kappa>	Hmmm... something must have happened back there.
<Maliki>	"acid ?"
*	Serikka_Tonatsu shakes head
*	Serikka_Tonatsu tries to motion a tentacle-like thing
<Kappa>	O_O
<Amilena>	Creepy.
<DM>	*Serikka does da wave.*
<Amilena>	Maybe let's not go check the chest.
<Kappa>	We encountered a tentacle monster before.
<Maliki>	"well not realy kappa
<Amilena>	I like treasure as much as the next person, but that's too much for me.
*	Serikka_Tonatsu thinks for a bit.

<Amilena>	(Now that's just getting weird)
<Kappa>	(Oh god)
<Maliki>	"ok that will making life easy"
<Maliki>	"whats up miss?"
<Kappa>	(Why do my kicks have to be this relevant?)
*	Serikka_Tonatsu writes something else.
<DM>	(brb 3-5 minutes)
*	Serikka_Tonatsu shows the paper that now read "I killed those plant things with rupees."
<Maliki>	"huh?.. how is that even be possible"
*	Serikka_Tonatsu writes more
*	Serikka_Tonatsu shows the paper that reads "Sharpness, skills, and aim."
<Kappa>	Hmmm...
<Maliki>	"ok what got to your sheild then?"
*	Serikka_Tonatsu tries to write more, but realizes she is out of paper
*	Kappa hands Serikka his bottle of honey.
<Kappa>	Drink this, see if it is an affliction.

*	Serikka_Tonatsu shakes head
<Maliki>	"my guess is she was born like this
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes out a cellphone and types
*	Serikka_Tonatsu passes around the device to everyone. It reads "Tentacles appeared from the sand. They engulfed the shield and some time later, they threw it out."
<Amilena>	Somehow I have a feeling we're going to be seeing that thing again before we get out of here.
<Kappa>	Yeah.
<Kappa>	I say we leave the chest for the moment and continue on.
*	Maliki trys to open the door then
*	Serikka_Tonatsu takes her device back and puts it in her pocket.
<Kappa>	Hold it... That tentacle monster is the only thing left here except us.
<Maliki>	"yes?"
<Kappa>	That means nothing else is around to attack us.
<Amilena>	Theoretically.
<Kappa>	True.
<Amilena>	It's not like we really understand how this box works entirely.
<Maliki>	"yeah
*	Maliki trys to ope the door
<Serikka_Tonatsu>	((What door))

*	Maliki trys to open up the door
<Amilena>	I've got enough problems with the moon, I don't need you to be copping attitude too.
*	Kappa peers through the opening, keeping an eye to see if other things are inside.
