The paper is yellow and weathered and seems to be hand drawn. Comparing it to the last map you have seen, there are several missing landmarks and towns that this map is at least a century old.
OOC:Make a history check if you want to investigate any further with the map.
Lari:
You spot a small green book that is about the same size as your hand. You quickly and quietly pocket it away.
Byg'wygg: Sandbaby leans down to talk quietly in your ear.
(If you wanna name this thing then you can Byg'wygg. I don't want to keep calling it creature plus it likes you so it won't have a problem with you naming it.)
"If you want me to and- um- only if you want me to. I mean I could fly up and take a look. Pyscala doesn't like birds so I shouldn't have to worry about any of them."
Byg’wigg will pat Sandbaby on the head, “Noes. Yous stay here, nice and safe.” Byg’wigg will conjure a flame in his hand and attempt to use it to look for anything of interest.

The room is lit well enough. Where you all had previously been in a dark cave you are now in more of a mid-summer day in a jungle kind of place.
All right, you all make your way down the hallways, having to stop an turn around a few times, as well as having the water slow you down quite a bit. Eventually you come across a small 'room', a place where the bookshelves widen enough to form a small square.
in the center of the room is a tall wooden podium with a golden plaque fixed firmly to it. Surrounding the podium are several tables that you can barely see the tops of as the rest are submerged.
OOC: Just a head up. While in the water everyone moves at half speed,unless you try to climb something or stand on the tables.
The water is fresh, clean and cold but unnaturally dark. Where you feel like you should be able to see you feet, the color turns basically black only a few inches beneath the surface. There are a few things floating in it as well, some ink pots, quills, pieces of paper, scraps of cloth, but nothing too unusual for a library in some dreamscape.
The water does turn lighter when you move it away from the rest, you can guess that the water might be enchanted to allow something to hide easily beneath it. Scamp sniffs it and determines that it smells slightly of fish, but other then that is safe.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ivellios will hand over the map he found "I found this on some cultist, it looks old but that was all I can gather from it." Walking through the water Ivellios will keep his eyes open as the others investigate.
Perception: 14

Quintoc reads the riddle aloud for everyone to hear. He looks at the map that Ivellios had handed over. "A map," he says. "That's the answer to the riddle, isn't it? But, what are her most beloved possessions? Will we find them on a map?"
He takes a closer look at the map. Investigation 12
Byg’wigg climbs up on the pedestal, “Byg’wigg clearly favorite. Byg’wigg is king of nature. Byg’wigg have seas, coasts, mountains, and lots of towns without people... but that change.”
The rolled of piece of paper is an old map of Terria.
"We're not here to read. Let's move on. If this is a maze, I'd like to find our way out."

OOC: what is the water like? is it fresh and/or clear?
The water is fresh, clean and cold but unnaturally dark. Where you feel like you should be able to see you feet, the color turns basically black only a few inches beneath the surface. There are a few things floating in it as well, some ink pots, quills, pieces of paper, scraps of cloth, but nothing too unusual for a library in some dreamscape.
Lari cups some water in his hands to see if it becomes less dark (i.e. normal water) when it is separated from the rest. Investigation: 12.
He holds it up for Scamp to sniff as well. Perception: 22.

Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiAOOC: You don't see much, but you can make out that there is some writing on the plaque in the center of the room.
Quintoc will stand on a table and try to read the plaque.
The words are written in common they say.
To pass through these halls/return unto me/my most beloved possessions/and I shall set thee free.
Below that appears to be a riddle.
"I have seas with no water, coast with no sand, towns without people, mountains without land. What am I?"

"I also found this ring as well." Ivellios pulls a ring out of his pouch giving it to Quintoc.
