Jove will fire two more eldritch blasts at the nearest one, clenching his side afterwards. "They have some poison or something. Be wary." He gives bardic inspiration to the person that looks like they will be attacked next.
OOC: Jove will take down the enemy attacking Abraxas, so moving Harmony and Olive around 30 feet to see the enemy inside the room and redirecting their attacks.
DM Screen:
10/26
Eldritch Blast vs. Enemy: 18Damage: 1 Eldritch Blast vs. Enemy: 26Damage: 10 Ray of Frost vs. Enemy (Disadvantage-Ranged Attack at Melee Distance): Lower of 10 or 8
Abraxas's spell fizzles, but he quickly turns into mist, reappearing behind Harmony and Olive's charge. Two solid arcane blasts from Jove drop the centipede humanoid in the entrance to the room, and the archers loose a trio of arrows that plunge into the remaining enemy. Hunched in pain, the creature turns and flees across the room, bolting through a door at the far end.
Room Description:
There are four sets of tables and chairs in this large 40-by-50-foot room. The tables are rife with parchment and papers.
There are four doors in this room: The entrance, the concealed door to Denisha's prison, a closed door to the south, and an open door to the southeast that the centipede humanoid fled through.
____________________________
OOC: Waiting to resolve Aisha's actions all at once or two of them depending on what the others do next.
"Quick, someone help me with a table to block off where he went! We don't want him to come back with reinforcements!" Jove will help whoever move the table to block the door that the yucko monster escaped through, so others can't come back through. After that, he will help Abraxas look at the papers the goblins were using. While doing that he says "I wonder why they didn't attack the goblins? Do they have some sort of deal with them?"
“Thank you, Harmony,” Abraxas says. He joins Jove in looking through the documents. “I Did not recognize those creatures. What do you think they were? But, perhaps more important, is finding the other hostages.is finding the other hostages. We should do that quickly.” He eyes the closed door to the south.
Harmony was able to hit the last creature along with Olive as well, but saw as it ran off through a door. She nodded when she heard Jove, moving a table with his help to block the door before sighing. "I would guess so, that they can co-exist through an agreement. Yes, now we really need to find the other hostages quickly. Hopefully Aisha is okay, wherever she is at right now." she had said back to them, wondering where the other is.
The pages on the tables are a series of maps and notes. The maps can be interpreted at a glance; they seem to depict a half dozen "camps" around the region. Each camp marked on the maps have the same two words written near it: Naga and Kobold. The notes will likely take a few minutes to look over.
______________________________
Aisha works the next two locks as easily as the first two, freeing two more owlbears from their shackles. Sensing an anger about the room, she senses the last owlbear's charge before it happens, beating it outside of the room, and it stays inside. She places her last berry on the ground as close to the first owlbear as she can, and it follows her out of the room, eating it along the way.
However, when she attempts to bring it with her, it releases a low hoot - almost a purr - and bounds toward the nearby staircase, galloping halfway and then weakly walking out of the ruins.
"I know we came here looking for the other pretend wizards, but maybe we could rest a bit? That will give us some time to look over the notes, and allow Aisha to return to us. A couple can watch the doorways while Abraxas and I decipher these maps."
OOC: Sure thing, Rai. Aisha is currently in the large open corridor from before.
North: A marked door to the bribed goblins, and a narrow hallway with an open door leading to the entrance staircase.
West: The shadow room and the room with the owlbears.
East: The rest of the corridor, including the first room with tables and half-eaten rats, and the room where the others went to trick the four goblins they saw.
South: The storage room with crates and barrels, and the room where Denisha was found.
Abraxas will sit and sort the maps and notes with Jove. "Valuable information," he says of the maps. "Knowing where camps of Kobold and Naga are could be very useful, but what can we make of these notes?" Abraxas will offer to help Jove.
Aisha pondered for a moment, trying to remember the layout and where they had already been, since her attempt to get an overnight guard for the group had failed. It was time for Aisha to get back to what she originally came here for.. The north had already been thoroughly explored. The west had just been finished as far as she knew, as when she had went deeper inside to unshackle the owlbears, she had seen no other rooms, or passages... Which meant East or south....
Aisha thought to herself that she hadn't been to the south herself yet.... as she wasn't with the group when Deneisha was found
Yet to the east, she hadn't been there at all except to where the ratroom was.
Seeing as the south was the one place she hadn't been at all, Aisha would head that way, with Tsavi in tow. Aisha would check the rooms in the order they appear from where she's coming from, looking into each one, and wandering inside to see what she could find, or discover. Now she was fully on the task of looking for the other mages.... However, Aisha had began leaving an arrow trail behind her, at every 'intersection' with an arrow pointing to where she had gone.
Aisha first opens the door to the south, discovering a small, dirty room with a rough-cut hole in the ground. Parchment and books are strewn about, but nothing else of interest, though along the wall Aisha finds a door concealed cleverly beneath a section of stone. It swings open to a large room with four sets of tables and chairs. Harmony and Olive are resting at two of them, while Abraxas and Jove pore over a number of notes on the tables. Two creatures are slain on the floor, humanoids with at least a dozen pairs of arms and bug-like eyes.
The notes discuss the use of naga and their kobold servants, forces from Vandyr, to harass the Ruskivek militia while goblins infiltrate the city via its sewers.
Aisha looks around, having stumbled onto the rest of the group. Tsavi peeking around her mistress' body. Aisha shakes off her shock, saying Ah.. Hello everyone... Are you all allright? is anyone hurt? Aisha has nyot made any headway on locating any of the other mages, though she did have a rrrrrun-in with several starved owlbears. Aisha has also found a map, though she thinks it is similar to one we already have. Aisha has not found any new passages.. perhaps she overlooked one.. but she feels we have explored everywhere up here... and she has not found anyone else.
If anyone said they were injured severely Aisha will cast up to 2 casts of Cure wounds (level 1) to heal them.
So... What now?
((OOC - Unless i missed something or unless that hole in the other room leads somewhere... i think where the bug people went is the only place left to go that they could be))
After saying and or healing she would add Purrhaps we should rreturn tomorrow.. we all look exhausted...
"I agree, Aisha. I think regrouping until tomorrow wouldn't be such a bad plan. After Abraxas and I finish taking a look at these notes, I think we can regroup. What do you all think?
OOC: My opinion is we could short rest here while we look over some notes, or long rest back in town.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"We should take these notes and maps to Ruskivek right now," Abraxas says.
"This is an invasion plan. Look," he says, pointing out the details to Jove and the others. "See? This describes goblins infiltrating the sewers and then the city while naga and kobolds distract the Ruskivek guards." He investigates the documents for anything suggesting a timetable or calendar: 18.
"The mage outside is the sister of one of the guard leadership, right? We should take this information to him."
Harmony had heard Jove, nodding back as she would watch the doorways since she isn't good with things like what they're doing. She waited, hearing Abraxas talk about knowing where camps of naga and kobold are, remembering how they had fought some in that tower. She soon heard a door open, looking back and extremely relieved to see that it was Aisha as she asked if they are alright and if anyone is hurt. She mentioned that she hadn't found the other mages, only having a run-in with owlbears but finding a map even though it's similar to the one they already have, mentioning that they've explored all that they can and should return tomorrow with Jove agreeing. "Well the trick didn't quite work on the goblins like I had hoped, so we quickly defeated them and then when we went in here, disgusting creatures got the jump on us and were quite tough. We should, but we promised Denisha that we would find her friends. They could be killed by the time we come back tomorrow." Harmony had said back to them, sighing. She then heard Abraxas, very surprised to hear that the notes are of an invasion plan as he suggested that they take the information to Denisha's brother, thinking. "Then I guess we really should go back. But we need to hurry and have them send people out here to find the rest of the wizards as soon as possible too." she now said back, hoping that Denisha won't be too upset that they couldn't find the other wizards and need to go back.
