Rick, REALLY just wanting to finally get this over with, strides past everyone else within this hallway where every inch they had to cover found itself to be trapped in some way, ready to just grab this second to last disk as he snatches it from the pedestal.
And just barely hears the little "click" that comes from the pedestal as he does.
"Heh," comes the dry sound from the scowling mask within that room.
On instinct, he ducks and rolls and manages to escape the worst of the ensuing explosion, but still takes half of 12 damage.
After the initial explosion, Asimi and Sylvia at least both coming over to inspect and make sure that Rick is okay, and the disk is finally collected. Except there's no translating for the little fae this time. Whatever word is supposed to be written upon this disk, it has been fully scratched out, making for the now five disks to be "Blood", "flesh", "breath", "eyes" and "???"
(Cladmir, you can also do rolls on your character page which is what Rodgeir is doing. Sometimes easier cause I think you can just click the stat you want to roll etc and it keeps a history there, but I don't mind in this case)
Soon after, under instruction to get to the last room Cladmir heads back, briefly gazing out for Nuria... Who offers a brief, perhaps slightly forced smile in Cladmir's direction as she's still tending over the two unconscious guards that have been tied up. It seems like they are slowly beginning to stir but aren't quite awake yet. He's soon directed further to the last room they still need to investigate, which the little floating gal explains to be marked as "Tragedy". The door inside is a small hallway leading to a relatively small room with a stage, a crying mask hanging above it. And as the warrior proceeds into the "audience" section of the room, does said mask begin to speak.
"Oh, oh... You kept me for last..? How sad..! But I suppose it only makes sense... Who would want to enter this room?"
"Oh, but if you really insist on this path, you have to take the stage... Oh, but it shouldn't be you, no, no, you really wouldn't like it, it'd be terribly sad..."
Sylvia follows into the room a moment after, causing the mask to speak up again.
"That hallway was particularly nasty," Sylvia agrees, glad to have hung well back with how little she trusted that hallway. Still, now she's looking at this new stage...
"So if comedy showed ones most... Humorous moment. Is this one going to show one's saddest..?"
Khond, hanging back from the doorway just in case, calls out, "If it's anything like Comedy, you'd best be able to embrace your trauma when you step up onto that stage! I only did so well because I can laugh at myself for being a fool!"

"Oh, I'm sure there's plenty of tragedy in everyone's lives. Embarrassment I can embrace, but true distress and grief that denotes a tragedy is beyond me to truly overcome, and I'm hardly in any condition to put on a performance. I'll have to waive the chance to run this show."

(( Totally forgot about the poison damage -- HP adjusted accordingly. ))
Cladmir is totally freaked out by even more weirdness happening, and unfortunately for him, he has always taken the path of keeping his head down and follow orders and not think too hard about it when facing difficulties, so upon hearing Rick's slick command he's going to "get up there" onto the stage.

"Oh no, no, definitely not you. All so sad..."
(Oh, almost forgot...)

Asimi also gives a quick medical glance over Breldo and Cladmir, but shrugs.
"That poison got you both good, but not sure what to do about it... Doesn't seem like it's too bad..?"
((What do you mean? I just make random numbers up!
Everything Rick did before he does again except.))
Rick stands, gives the mask his rudest of gestures first.
"Rick hates this place friend Sylvia."
On hearing that Cladmir and Sylvia are too sad he nudges Khond but tells Cladmir,
"Rick thinks not Bandit should get up there before Rick completely loses Rick's patience."
He starts applying some soothing oil to his burns while he glares.
"That hallway was particularly nasty," Sylvia agrees, glad to have hung well back with how little she trusted that hallway. Still, now she's looking at this new stage...
"So if comedy showed ones most... Humorous moment. Is this one going to show one's saddest..?"
Something about that seems to make the fae think.
"Rick's saddest moment was coming down here."
He rubs his only, now well burnt, ear gently with oil.
Khond, hanging back from the doorway just in case, calls out, "If it's anything like Comedy, you'd best be able to embrace your trauma when you step up onto that stage! I only did so well because I can laugh at myself for being a fool!"

"Oh... Oh... I think you're more likely to find these events in my brother's room, oh..."
"Though I feel like yours might somehow be very very sad too, oh..."
