An Act of Hubris or Guile

(Post your actions. Basically someone needs to try using the keys)

“Ok, the only way we’re going to know is to try….”  Kasbis takes the keys and inserts them into the locks as follows : 

Lock 1 : Sun (gold key)

Lock 2 : Water (silver key)

Lock 3 : Soil (bronze key)

He inserts the bronze key first, then silver, then gold last.  “Here goes….”  And he turns them.

As you turn each key you see the carving on the door change. Soil surrounding the roots of the tree, then rain falling down, and the end the clouds part with the sun. The wilted tree is healthy and quite leafy now. You hear several clicks as the door unlocks.

The door opens

Revealing this scene

An ordinary tree in the middle of a underground lake. Walking on the stone path is an imposing figure in black robes and an iron mask. He begins turning around at the sound of the door opening.

What do you do?

Hide behind the door, extinguish the torch, or show yourselves

Having heard what this person intends to do with the tree Aisha is filled with righteous furry and will rush the figure and attempt to put herself between them and the tree. "You will not touch Elistine's tear. If she's able to get between them and the tree she will cast Dissonant Whispers.

DC 13 Wisdom Saving throw or take 14 psychic damage and must immediately use its reaction, if available, to move as far as its speed allows away from her. Half as much damage on a success and doesn’t have to move away.

Seeing the natural light filtering in from above, Duncan tosses his torch down on the rocks to pick up on his way out. Hearing Aisha's command towards the figure, Duncan wields his glaive and begins walking across the stepping stones towards the tree

Kasbis was ready to hide and see how this played out, but seeing the anger of Aisha blossom and seeing Duncan step forth, he chooses a different action.  He steps into the chamber and points at the masked figure, shouting out in a loud voice, “Viscount Marish, I presume?  Come, come, show yourself.  Take off your mask, throw it down, lie down on the ground and put your hands behind your back, and end this foolish charade.  Your wicked ways will prevail no longer.  Your time has come, justice has come for you… today.  Kurta would love to see this moment.”

Kas casts suggestion, DC 14 wisdom save, after Aisha performs her spell.  Making the masked figure to take off the mask, lie down on the ground and put his hands behind his back.

“Why don’t you take off your mask and show us who we are talking to.  I want to see your face.  Take it off, before I blow it off…”
