“I had the same thought, but then again if the place we seek is secret I doubt it. And try to imagine his suffering, all this thousands years here... alone and without the eternal rest. “ her tone is sad. “ The affairs of the living is ours to solve. “ she smiles to the rest “ Let ´go, we´ve come this far. We have the true gods on our side. We can do this.”

She continues walking towards the zone Escarin pointed.

While the High Gulp is talking to Bupu, Geoff will inspect the book he borrowed from the library. He looks at the cover and flips through the first few pages for a title.

OOC: if he needs any rolls let me know

Int pure: if you are not reading elvish

Xorn nods and shrugs at Byrony. “They know what they’re doing. When it comes to this kind of stuff I usually just try to listen and follow. Oh, and be ready if things don’t work out the way they hope. It’s worked out so far.”

Geoff, Kinlin, Tyrros and Alex 

The high Gulp seems to have finished talking to you and moves out of the "throne room", you see him flounder ad stubble as he enters another tunnel leading away. The other dwarves try very hard not to see it. 

Bupu moves toward Alex and takes his hand, ( if he lets her), " I'll take you to the dragon if you want." 

Xorn, Bryony, Shan, and Escarin

Escarin moves back to his intended area with a purpose. 

The group ends up two stories higher and on a precarious wood floor. The wood has been eaten by mold and insects. The wall in front of you seems to have endured the years better than the rest of the place.

  Yes, it is and it is an elvish that is very academic and that you have never seen. It is used by the court of the Silvanesty. It is an account of the Severance and the 2nd book of the history of the war that divided the elves centuries ago. It is a rare book and very valuable especially to the elves. 

Turning to the others Escarin says "I believe I have the words to call forth the guardian so that he will not attack" he pauses momentarily "Still it wouldn't hurt to be on guard".

Facing the door in a calm clear voice he calls out "Arednosterunis"

Shanryar realizes that she is holding the staff with too much strength in anticipation. 

Geoff is interested in the book's contents, "I'm sure Shan will enjoy this." He stows it in his pack for now. "I do hope they're alright. As Alex said, we cannot face this dragon without our friends. It would be a death sentence for us without them. Would we please be able to wait a little while?

With any luck they should have seen the arrow I left on the library floor."

Xorn, Bryony, Shan, and Escarin

Escarin utters the words and the wall in front of him shimmers for a second. You all see a knight, in black plate armor be and glowing red eyes glowing in his helm becoming apparent in the frame of the disappearing wall. 

It wipers icy words. " Thank you, master. You have released me. I will be waiting at your tower in Palanthas."  It stops and looks at Shan and Escarin. " Master?" he sounds confused but he disappears in a blink leaving the group confused and in front of a new door frame. 

"I don't think that was a good thing..." Escarin turns to the others "It appears that I may have been duped, I'm still going to try the door but we really should take care." 

“Let me check one more thing... “ says Shanryar and concentrates a little bit holding her staff.

She is still shaking from the view of the dark knight. She isn’t sure if it was for the view of that powerful entity or for knowing who he was addressing when he called for his “master”. 

"By the True Gods, what was that?"

Bryony is visibly shaken and it takes all her willpower to keep watching the group's back instead of gawking at where the dark knight had stood.  "Well, we've come this far.  I suppose we might as well check out whatever he was guarding, right?"

" I don't know, it seemed a creature of evil, I do not know what I have unleashed in Krynn but if I ever return home to Palanthus I will try and atone for it if necessary."

Escarin reaches towards the door to enter.

Geoff, Kinlin, Tyrros and Alex 

Bupu looks at Alex with bright happy and excited eyes.. all of a sudden, all around you, several dwarves, their lanky frames ( for dwarves) wriggling out of the mountain of trash the throne sits upon, appear. 

"Hide and seek game.." the whispers amplifies in the cave and echoes. 

Bupu practically beaming with envy, and struggling to stay in place, has a hard time controlling herself. She seems ready to spring. 

" Tell the others what to look for, then we go."  She turns to the kender, "Race you?"
