Trulhammaren has connected.
Eclipse: 	84.6
Chloe has connected.
Eclipse: 	53.6
Kaorin Sakura: 	Alright so. In light of the news.
Kaorin Sakura: 	You guys will have the opportunity to rest in the next area.
Avara: 	this is probably a bad idea, as was previously discussed, since it'd be giving the next boss fight a chance to find out about this one getting kapwnt
Eclipse: 	Unless we can freeze time so he doesn--owaitlol
Trulhammaren: 	if we do break I vote minimum time
Eclipse: 	still don't think we should, due to not having much time before he finds us
Eclipse: 	Haha, time jokes about a chronomancer.
Chloe: 	Chloe corrected.
Trulhammaren: 	which would be enough time to get rid of an injury on each person
Trulhammaren: 	but not sure about much beyond that
Avara: 	jen's not injured and ruby's useless regardless, so that's kind of up to you guys. i can hand out potions if need be. i have 9.
Kaorin Sakura: 	No one has a revive?
Kaorin Sakura: 	And I thought Chloe had offered a Bigguda.
Trulhammaren: 	not I
Eclipse: 	Wait, Revives? Who for?
Avara: 	does revive heal 5 injuries?
Kaorin Sakura: 	Ruby.
Chloe: 	Chloe and her pokemon were not touched this previous battle.
Trulhammaren: 	I have offered Ava things to think about we just need to have the convo
Eclipse: 	ah
Kaorin Sakura: 	Well, we can begin.
Avara: 	recap and kaorin go order pizza
Kaorin Sakura: 	I will leave this before I order pizza.
	Chronicler: 	On the far northern side of the room lies a 20-meter ladder that leads into the next area. Whenever you all are ready to venture forth, use the ladder.
	Alsine: 	Occult Is there anything funny about liches that we should know to make sure they stay dead.
	Chronicler: 	...Wow.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn was just so happy everyone was alive at this point that she was crying with joy as she gave the Derite a big hug.
* Valerie Ylsef hands Ulang enough potions to get healed up.
	Chloe: 	Should Chloe help her with that?
	Saturn Rosewell: 	But Intuition 5d6+1 to see if the lich is still alive, or if there are any new things nearby.
	Chronicler: 	Yeah, Chloe should.
	Chloe: 	Chloe helps her with that.
	Chronicler: 	Because you rolled a 13.
Eclipse: 	(Saturn can help Val with the Potions so they're more effective; each one will heal 10 extra HP)
	Alsine: 	Occult reroll.
	Alsine: 	That is impressively low
	Chronicler: 	That is all 1's.
* Jennifer Attaway uses a potion. "Does anyone need potions?"
	Alsine: 	That's four 1s and two 2s.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	Jennifer Attaway is healed and gains 20 hit points.
	Chronicler: 	Ah, I miscounted.
	Chloe: 	"My pokemon weren't hurt at all. But what about you, is Ruby okay?"
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Jen. You seem to be in need of an ally, I have several Pokemon that you could command for the time being. And if you like their company we can talk about it when we get back somewhere safer."
	Torren: 	Torren feels massively uncomfortable being hugged like this, and starts squirming. It prompts Saturn to let go.
	Ülang: 	Ülang is healed and gains 26 hit points.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Alright... if you're sure. I don't know if your Pokémon would listen to me, though."
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Uh, if they listen to me they'll list'n to you."
	Finch: 	Finch is just whistling quietly to himself. He was a bit hurt, but nothing that a rest and a bandage later couldn't fix. There was still work to be done!
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"I'm not exactly known for my trainer skills."
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Other than Domino and Targkon, most of my capture are pretty tame."
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Though Pyro is kind of an odd one."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Alright. Thanks again."
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: What were the results of my Intuition check a little while ago?
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((you are more than welcome to borrow as many of those three as you want.))
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((just let me know))
	Chloe: 	"I also caught two of the same pokemon, if you're interested."
Jennifer Attaway: (( i'll just borrow maya for now, if that's alright. ))
	Alsine: 	"He'll come back, you know." Alsine stated abruptly.
Jennifer Attaway: 	"I... can we talk about long term after we're done with the mission down here? I don't think we should be discussing that sort of thing in a time-stressed situa--what."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Wait what?!"
	Domino : 	Domino is healed and gains 30 hit points.
Chronicler: (( Val did mention talking long term later. ))
Jennifer Attaway: (( missed it. herpderp goddamnit. this keeps happening. ))
Valerie Ylsef : 	((maya 1 should have you as an owner ava on my box))
	Alsine: 	"The body of a lich is a temporary construct. You destroy the body but without destroying their Phylactery they come back. We have between a day and a week to find it before he returns, I'd rather not bet that he isn't the vengeful sort."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...so, find his...phil-thingy...and destroy it?"
	Alsine: 	"Yes. But liches hide them well. Their life literally depends on it."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Then it probably isn't here... But in case it is, what would it look like?
	Alsine: 	"A sealed metal box is traditional. Common, but there are other methods. It will be covered in ties and runes, that much is central to the creation of a Phylactery. But be wary of your eyes, we know someone here has a talent for illusion."
Valerie Ylsef : 	"I bet dingbatwhathisface has this Philly Cheese Steak thing."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Covered in ties and runes...and probably disguised like an illusion... Good to know."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Though it should radiate life, so in that case...it can't fool my eyes."
* Jennifer Attaway attempts to use her Mystic Sense to detect powerful Aura in the area. Intuition.
	Alsine: 	"It may be in the possession of his partner.. Or it might be in a fortress on the far side of Oblivia. Whichever the lich believes is the safest place."
* Saturn Rosewell is still waiting on the results of a similar check...
Chronicler: (( Ah, I missed that, sorry. ))
Eclipse: 	sa'right.
Chronicler whispers: The Lich is not alive here, that's for sure. None of the Undead in this area remain animated either.
Jennifer Attaway: (( listening to a metal cover of Song of Time. ))
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...There's nothing still alive here..."
	Chloe: 	"If we're lucky, this guy doesn't have any deoxys friends, I'd rather not chase him into space."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"D-...Deoxys?"
Jennifer Attaway: 	"If he's that high up, he can have fun with whatever's left of the Rayquazas."
	Chloe: 	Chloe performs her Trademarked search check. Looking for hidden compartments or illusions to see through. Perception.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Deoxys......huh." She looked like she was thinking about something, but couldn't figure it out. "Well, whatever. We need to keep moving."
* Saturn Rosewell held Torren close, thanking it again for its help, as it became unsummoned once again.
	Chloe: 	"I can't find anything. It looks like Krootad just found this place convenient to sit around in."
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Indeed, if this buttmunch we are hunting for is some kind of wacky wizard, then we don't want to give him time to prepare."
	Alsine: 	Alsine tries to remember if she's ever heard the name Krootad before this day. Occult...?
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Then yeah, let's get going. We have a someone-or-other to stop from... what was his evil plan again?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"He's looking for something here, I think....something big. And he might be responsible for the disappearances of several of the townsfolk."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Oh. Yes, we should definitely stop him from doing those things."
* Saturn Rosewell picked up Finch and prepared to head onward through the...ladder?
* Valerie Ylsef beats Saturn to the ladder, so she could lead the way
Jennifer Attaway: (( how valerie beats anyone to anything in stoneplate, i don't know. but that's probably a good idea. ))
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Oh, right...heh. Forgot you should go first. Sorry..."
* Ülang will take her usual position at the end of the party.
	Ülang: 	((she falls over and makes them fall down))
	Chloe: 	Chloe and Alsine follow, with Vorpal recalled.
	Finch: 	"He tino nga'kau nui koe."
You whisper to Avara: "You are very enthusiastic."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"E kore au tino ki te e koe te hākiki ahau."
	Chronicler: 	Alright, descending? Goooood. Gooooooood.
Jennifer Attaway whispers: "I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic."
Jennifer Attaway: (( brb ))
	Ülang: 	((also brb))
	Chloe: 	((does ladder go up, or down?))
Jennifer Attaway: (( back ))
	Finch: 	"Arotahi taku kaiwhakangungu i runga i ona whai'nga. E ia tino oaoa, ka mutu to matou mahi i konei te."
You whisper to Avara: "My trainer is focused on her goals. She will be very excited when our business here is finished."
	Finch: 	Hooray for typing that out manually!
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Kite ahau karohia koe te pātai Poiete."
Jennifer Attaway whispers: "I notice you avoided the implied question."
* Jennifer Attaway is, yes, going along whatever way the ladder leads.
	Chronicler: 	Dpwn
	Chronicler: 	Down*
	Finch: 	"Tika."
	Chloe: 	then yes, we dpwn
You whisper to Avara: "Correct."
	Ülang: 	((backaroony))
Avara: 	i think your first spelling was more accurate. *bad feeling about this*
Eclipse: 	d-pwn all of the d-noobs!
	Chronicler: 	When you descend down the ladder you come across a collection of three large islands, roughly 10 meters by 10 meters wide, connected by metal chains embedded into each island. It creates a sort of worm-like connection. The area itself is rather dark (creatures with darkvision cannot see anything in the distance) and just as you all set foot on the first of the three islands you feel the islands begin to move - traversing the dark waters in a pre-determined trip.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Intuition to check this area too BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
* Valerie Ylsef just like remind that she does have a 10ft glow
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((well 10meter with 5 meters of lowlight))
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((just in case it is relevant))
Avara: (( is the island moving quietly, or loudly? ))
	Chronicler: 	In that case, the waters here are murky and you can see creatures below the waters surface are sort of ferrying the islands across.
	Chronicler: 	And the islands move about as quietly as a rowboat.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn took a look at the water to see what was actually pushing them around. Like, why would they be specifically pushing these islands? And why were there three?
	Alsine: 	Alsine signs in defeat. Her hair grows white and boney black wings sprout from her back.
Avara: 	hm. none of this is ringing a bell for me, so this may be a whole-cloth new area, or just a referenced area i'm not getting. i feel like i SHOULD recognize it, though.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"A-Alsine...? Wh-...what are you d-doing?"
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Huh? Oh right, you do that."
	Alsine: 	"I thought I might need wings." She said, a prickle of bitterness in her normally monotonous voice.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...oh..." She seemed genuinely sad.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"That's... interesting." She's kind of surprised by this! But she's trying to take it in stride, since now isn't really time time for questions. The time for questions is more like 'when I'm not likely to be eaten by a Grue.'
	Alsine: 	"I'm not exactly human... not anymore. ... is something wrong, Saturn?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"I just...thought you were going to keep the disguise for longer...that's all."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Well, it's not exactly like I have any place judging on the 'not human' front, so you don't have to worry about judging from me."
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"I can change back whenever we need me to. Don't worry, I won't stay like this.:
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Any meaningful results from my prior check, or is it just the things pushing the island?
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"I hope so. I just don't want anyone being mean to you because of it..."
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"...oh?" Alsine looked over surprised. "... oh... sorry. I thought... you had meant something else."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"No, not really..."
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Don't forget to grab up any new weaponry while we still have time."
* Valerie Ylsef tosses Ulang a sword.
Jennifer Attaway: (( what were the stats on the armor nobody else wanted, again? reinforced light? ))
	Chloe: 	"I'll take the bow, I was rather useless in the last fight. I might not be the best, but I feel like I could help a little."
* Ülang equipifies the sword
Eclipse: 	I thought it was reinforced medium with 5 piercing DR
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"I'll be okay with these," Saturn clutched her chakram.
	Ülang: 	((reinforced +5 pierce
Avara: 	how much was the general DR on it?
	Ülang: 	(10)
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine floated from the island and began to circle it. Following along but trying to get a wider view of the area they were in.
	Ülang: 	(so 10 DR +5 Piercing))
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine has darkvision.
	Valerie Ylsef : 	"Here, you might want to give this to Maya, I'm sure she could make use of it."
* Valerie Ylsef hands Jen the Flail from the room
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"A-alright." She brings Maya out and gives her the flail, nervous about handling someone else's Pokémon.
	Water Weird: 	Handout (click this)
Eclipse: 	Ah, neat
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((wants it!!))
Jennifer Attaway: (( oh it's another one of those things. except EVEN SCARIER. ))
Eclipse: 	And potentially aggressive.
Water Weird: (( Okay, now that I found an imagine that didn't have full display of tits - I swear 'male' water weird fixed everything - we can continue! ))
Alsine Kolstad: 	((it doesn't work))
Alsine Kolstad: 	((what page?))
Water Weird: (( It seems like it did for everyone else. ))
Eclipse: 	Battlefield map
Water Weird: (( Battlefield. ))
Jennifer Attaway: (( worked fine on battlefield ))
Alsine Kolstad: 	((I'm on cast))
Eclipse: 	That may be why
Alsine Kolstad: 	((When a handout is linked, you check cast page. >.>))
	Valerie Ylsef : 	((I just never move from battle field unless I need to be a mon that isn't on the feild))
	Water Weird: 	Water Weird notices it being seen and slips out from the waters onto one of the islands. It speaks a language you aren't familiar with (though Alsine is) yet its meaning rings true in your mind, "You seem confused. Are you not guests of the King?"
Jennifer Attaway: (( Languages: Human Kanto, Poke Kanto, Human Sinnoh, Human Kalos ))
Water Weird: (( It's speaking Oblivia. ))
Eclipse: 	I thought so.
Jennifer Attaway: (( okay. ))
Water Weird: (( It asked a question. And everyone can understand it btw ))
	Ülang: 	"Definere, kong vennligst"
	Chloe: 	"We are messengers. We found the items he's been looking for and want to show him." Chloe technically didn't lie. Guile
	Chloe: 	"We've worked with Krootad exclusively, so we don't know our way around this area, I'm sorry to bother you." She continued to not-lie.
	Water Weird: 	"King Donovan." Water Weird looks intently upon Chloe, "That would be quite difficult, ser, as the King has been dead for centuries."
* Jennifer Attaway sighs. "Do you mind if I try now, Chloe?"
	Ülang: 	((what was douchewaffels name again?))
	Water Weird: 	Water Weird's eyes light up as Chloe mentions Krootad, "Ah, yes. The mining crew and his warirors."
Eclipse: 	Krootad?
	Ülang: 	((time waffle))
	Chloe: 	((lich))
Eclipse: 	Xeron
	Ülang: 	"Vi er ikke , besøkende på King. Vi søker en ussel mann kjent som Xeron , for å fjerne ham."
	Water Weird: 	"You needn't worry about us. We will continue to ferry you as you demanded."
	Chloe: 	"Ah, sorry." Chloe looked embarassed to Jen.
Jennifer Attaway: (( ... should i even -bother- trying to explain/charm the water weird? ))
	Ülang: 	((Ulang is being blunt, so probably not))
	Water Weird: 	If Water Weird had eyebrows, it would've raised one at Ulang, "Are you servants of Krootad, dispatchers of Xeron or visitors of the late King?"
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Please forgive my companion her effort at deception. I think that she was worried you might be working for Xeron, an intruder to the tomb. He and the undead Krootad have been using this place to abduct and experiment upon innocents."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	Charm, trying to make a good impression / undo bad impressions!
	Ülang: 	"Dispatchers av Xeron , er jeg redd min følgesvenn kan ha glemt at Krootad og hans likesinnede er ikke de eneste som borgerne på området følger."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"We were sent by a local settlement to investigate the disappearances."
	Chloe: 	"Y-yeah... I didn't want any trouble, so I pretended that we.. um... belonged here." Chloe blushed and bowed to the water weird.
	Ülang: 	((super suprised that ilk was a tranlatable word btw))
	Water Weird: 	Water Weird waved a dismissive hand, "Among present company, the deceit was bound to fail. But Xeron and his crew abducted none here. Xeron, however, has awakened several of the tombs defenses while Krootad took advantage of the dead."
	Ülang: 	"Any defenses that you could warn us about?"
	Water Weird: 	"Any disappearances of the surface dwellers would likely be Krootad or the tombs defenses doing. Or both."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...That's a weird question, though..." Saturn had been quietly listening, but something struck her as odd. "You asked if we were visitors, but how can anyone visit a man long dead? Unless you're guarding his tomb or something? ...And what was he king of?"
* Ülang deciding that while polite, it was unessecary to speak in the native tounge.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Visitors to the dead can pay respects, Saturn."
	Water Weird: 	"None I need to. Xeron destroyed any ahead long ago and any still active you would've likely passed on the way here."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...I know. I'm asking if that's what they meant, or if there was some other meaning behind it."
	Ülang: 	"Good to know."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Do you happen to know Xeron's purpose in this place?"
	Water Weird: 	"If in fact you do no know of King Donovan you are ignorant of where you stand. I needn't explain anything to you. We shall ferry you as demanded by our oppressors. The trip is a slow one, so bear with the wait. You will arrive at the Throne in time."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"So...we're just going to find out for ourselves, then..."
Jennifer Attaway: (( one moment please ))
Jennifer Attaway: (( lore check king donovan? ))
	Jennifer Attaway: 	bardic knowledge attempt.
	Alsine: 	Alsine considers if she does know of king Donovan. General Ed
	Ülang: 	"Oppressors?" ((willing to wait))
