On the walk up the stairs, Magoo informs the others that the pebbles seem to hold a large amount of water. "We should keep the ones we have for drinking purposes. But we will need to squeeze the water into containers rather than biting them. Wow, that was a rush." Magoo does not like the look or sound of the guards they have encountered so draws his weapons.
Tori holds her hands up. "Magoo put those away, it's the same language as the stone faces earlier." She'll then try and cast comprehend languages
The small icy mephit waves you forward towards the huge earth elemental which holds out itâs hand.
As the gold piece is placed in its palm it is absorbed quickly into the creatures body. You can smell the metallic/earthy smell of the behemoth. You see veins of ore and layers of mineral in this giant. Then it slides to the side.
The icy little mephit giggles as you prepare to enter.
"It's asking for payment to enter the cave" *Tori holds out a gold piece with a shrug*
âMaybe ask it what this place is?âKrakel suggests. âThis path seems to be rarely used. I would hate to walk into a cave filled with those angry little bonsai or anything of the like.â âYou can tell them we are explorers from another world.â
(Do these creatures have colored markings like many of the others?) perception: 13
Magoo hopes his natural suspicion is incorrect as he puts away his dagger but keeps his sword out. He produces a gold piece to give to the huge elemental. âThis better be worth it.â
As you enter the ice cave you can hear the river gurgling below your feet the path inside is made of grit. The ice is thick and clear as you continue along you can see shapes and things in the ice it looks like wreckage. Finally at the end of the cave you gather a scene of horror a large mushroom strapped on a metal table a medium size mantis creature on the floor.. it appears this is a crash site frozen in ice. Presumably there is much more within the ice but this scene is clearly carved and polished for viewing.
You hear wings behind you and hear the mephit, (primordial)
âWhat do you think? Glorious simply amazing. What can this be? Bring your families bring more payment come see this again, I can show you other parts just give a few days. Will you come again?â
âThis is very strange indeed. It would appear we are not the first to crash on this planet.â Krakel thinks aloud.
âI wonder how long ago this took place. I donât know what their intent was, perhaps exploring like us, but this is a bizarre scene the way that mushroom is strapped to the table. It almost looks like an experiment of some sort.â
Krakel looks around for any books, paperwork, or data devices he would recognize that may tell something about all this.
Magoo also wonders about the intent of the mephit (Insight 12) and looks closer at the other frozen parts (perception 23).
same as Toriâs insight. The mantis creature has a headband on its head and a tray of âtoolsâ scattered at its feet. (Torture/interrogation tools) the big blue/purple myconid is certainly the subject of the mantisâŠ

"Great, a weird and disturbing tourist trap. Seems like others have taken advantage of the mushroom folks. I wonder how they all became frozen. Well, whatever the reason, I suggest we leave to continue our mission to find rocks and ore."
âSuch a strange place, perhaps we can mark it on the map. Maybe in the future it can prove useful some how.â Krakel says as he begins to follow the others.

Tori may read the spoiler as the mephit will repeat his message.

Krakel follows, also presenting a gold piece.
Magoo hopes his natural suspicion is incorrect as he puts away his dagger but keeps his sword out. He produces a gold piece to give to the huge elemental. âThis better be worth it.â
{Is it charging one gold piiece per person, or one for the entire group?}
As you present your coins the earth elemental looks like itâs making a big huge grin. The mephit flits about excitedly, (speaking in primordial)
âNever better never will you see such grandeur! Youâll be back yes yes bring more.â

âThey seem really happy to see us, I bet they donât get many visitors this far out in the wild.â

Tori stands shocked for a moment. Then tries to determine if the mephit caused this, or is just capitalizing on it
Magoo also wonders about the intent of the mephit (Insight 12) and looks closer at the other frozen parts (perception 23).

Lyra examines the mushroom and mantis creatures through the ice, trying to recognize what they are.

Definitely capitalizing, caused it you arenât getting a vibe.
same as Toriâs insight. The mantis creature has a headband on its head and a tray of âtoolsâ scattered at its feet. (Torture/interrogation tools) the big blue/purple myconid is certainly the subject of the mantisâŠ
Watching Magoo you also notice the toolsâŠ
Youâve seen pictures but cannot recall the names.
