Lord of Nessus - A D&D 5e Homebrew Campaign

OoC: Guess we are in a 'holely hell'

 [OoC: sprays with water spritzer "No! Bad! Bad pun!" sprays more water]

(OOC: lol. Sorry for not getting back to y'all- the page was too laggy for me to post)

Matthyse, as you climb down, you hear Freytha talking with someone. You catch a bit of their conversation. "I always hate that. Can we get another entrance?"

 OoC: It's all good

Matthyse will use his Psionic Mind feature to speak to Freytha once he's close enough.

"Are you alright? And who are you talking to? Everyone is waiting for us above."

Freytha steps out from the shadows. "Welcome to the Brotherhood," she says, then shouting up to everyone else, "You can come down now!"

Matthyse will finish climbing down the rope and he'll stand at the base of it in case anyone falls while climbing down.

"Thank goodness. We finally made it." and he sighs with relief.

 (OOC: lol yeah what an interesting journey)

As you make it down to the bottom of the rope, you see an icy floor that is covered with small, scattered rocks. The ice and snow above you gives way in the distance to stalagmites and stalactites and a cave. Freytha is back to arguing with a short person with long, braided auburn hair, most likely a dwarf, about the entrance. "And now we have to fix it! It takes so much work..."

Calanin looks down at the ice.

”Is that safe?”

Freytha looks up quickly- "Yes, it's safe! Better than staying out there- ice devils prowl the lands!"

“In that case, here I come!” He jumps down.

You see the same sight as Matthyse:

"Yeah, I am going down there" I go down there

OoC: did you know: I went down there

(OOC: Kuuraht?)

You see the same thing as Matthyse and Calanin. 

 I'm the last one down. As cold and uninviting as it seems to be, I'm burning right now. The situation at hand infuriates me, both this Freytha woman and that Vecna character. Both are using us. And the revelation that our live are intended as some grand experiment for power? 

...I've lost so much on those streets -- my friends, my brother, my dignity. 

I just can't wrap my head around it all. I hide the frustration on my face. No use tipping off the others before I've made a real decision. 

As you make it down, Freytha and her companion begin to walk towards the cave. "Come," Freytha says. "Our journey is not over yet."

Matthyse sighs and says "And here I though it was finally over. You'll have a lot of explaining to do once this trek is over."

And he keeps following silently, not shy about showing how irritated he feels by this whole situation.

Calanin, on the other hand, races after them. He wants to get away from the ice devils as soon as possible.

(OOC: lol this is like a spy movie where no one tells the main characters anything until they're all about to die)

Walking through caves becomes a daily activity- or it seems like days there. You go down and down, only to go up again, and down once more. Finally, after a journey of many days, you're standing in front of another portal. Freytha and the other person, nameless to you- a dwarf, as you've discovered- jump through. 

Calanin follows them in without question.

*Calanin is like that nonexistent character who does whatever someone asks if it means less danger.*

Matthÿse ain't gonna do anything other than follow. He's come this far, and he wants to know what all the secrecy and traveling is for. He jumps in after Calanin.
