“Well, well, that’s a nice plot twist - the power of three, always the most affecting number. Three of us, three trials, three keys.” Visage follows Kal with anticipation
You walk into a library with several shelves of books (6 rows to be exact). And all the walls (Minus the wall with the door) are covered with shelves of books. After walking in, the voice is heard again
"Hidden within one of these books, is a key that you seek. Be careful which you took, all the rest are traps, it could be bleak."
(Quick Translation: The first key is hidden inside one of the books, but be careful, because the rest will trigger a trap.)
"Seek one the color of the sea, A synonym only it can be. A book like this holds the key."
“Oh, I love a riddle! The colour of the sea, that would be blue. And a synonym is when you use a word in place if another... haven’t figured that part out yet... Boys, find any blue books and read me the titles, just don’t touch the books!”
“Oh, I love a riddle! The colour of the sea, that would be blue. And a synonym is when you use a word in place if another... haven’t figured that part out yet... Boys, find any blue books and read me the titles, just don’t touch the books!”
”So... I’ve narrowed it down to two books - 5 oceans, or Violets. 5 oceans because ocean can be a synonym for sea, and violet could be a synonym for blue. I’m leaning towards 5 oceans but should we vote?” She looks Marrick and Kal with a cautioning stare. ”The wrong book will be trapped so Kal... can you use your spectral hand?”
Inside the second room, there is an empty square room with a hallway on the other side. One everyone enters the square room, a Wall of Stone blocks up the hallway and the entrance. The other two walls slowly close in before stopping.
"If you wish to reach the key, You must answer the riddles three. You have five chances, don't treat them as mush, If your wrong too much, you will be crushed."
The voice pauses before speaking again
Riddle 1: "Spell master, Arcane blaster. You should know him well, He's a beast of stories to tell. While he was once wary, He made himself something scary." "Who is it?"
"Riddle 2:" "Swamp dwellers, Master spellers. Green-nosed witch, with a wart to twitch. If you act your worst, she will make you cursed." "What race is it?"

"Guess we need to find the keys," Kal says. He walks over to the wood door and tries opening it, fully expecting it to be locked.
I walk up behind Kal ready to support him.
Which wood door, there are three. North, East, or West?

Marrick shrugs Uh, sure lets go with that one.
Kal nods his own agreement and uses Mage Hand again to have the hand open the book well away from where the group stands.

When you pull out the 5 Oceans book, nothing happens, it slides off the shelf. Inside is a key made out of copper.
"Good one, Visage," Kal says. "First try". "Shall we try the next room?" He asks, heading back out to try the next door.
(How about west this time)
Marrick goes to grab the key Alright that's one down, lets go to the busted up door next.
Inside the second room, there is an empty square room with a hallway on the other side. One everyone enters the square room, a Wall of Stone blocks up the hallway and the entrance. The other two walls slowly close in before stopping.
"If you wish to reach the key,
You must answer the riddles three.
You have five chances, don't treat them as mush,
If your wrong too much, you will be crushed."
The voice pauses before speaking again
Riddle 1:
"Spell master,
Arcane blaster.
You should know him well,
He's a beast of stories to tell.
While he was once wary,
He made himself something scary."
"Who is it?"
"Are we able to discuss between ourselves before giving an answer?" Kal asks the air.
Marrick looks at the others Arcane Beast right?
You hear no response (Yes, you may discuss before you say the answer, just be careful, if you are wrong five times, you all get crushed.)
The sound of a bell echoes through the air.
"Riddle 2:"
"Swamp dwellers,
Master spellers.
Green-nosed witch,
with a wart to twitch.
If you act your worst,
she will make you cursed."
"What race is it?"
