Doc JoJo is with the Party which I assume is not one of the caves we flew past?
JoJo says to no one in particular, but to all in earshot. "Do you think we were noticed when we went by those lit up caves? Should we head down to them? If we do, should we have ropes or is this fly spell good for a while longer?"
(OOC: You're at the ambush spot I believe, you could still use the fly spell)

((Willing to take suggestions before officially submitting them to the Great Old One, but:
1. What is the name of the living brain in the realm below me?
2. What is the name of the undead brain in the realm below me?
3. What is (name of living brain)’s greatest vulnerability?
4. What is (name of undead brain)’s greatest vulnerability?
5. How many servants do they enthrall, in total?))
If Musashi, Hellhound and Etrus are with you then the first three no longer have Fly because it’s concentration.
JoJo asks, While i am no mage, why do you want to know the name? Would their endgame be a better question? However if that is unanswerable do with what you can. I have nothing to add question wise.
1. Gargathnoth
2. Thoath
3. Parasites
4. Area of Affect
5. Deciding what you call 'servants', thirty (Actually thralls), or two hundred (Total number of people that work for them) or so

Gail is happy we have other choices than just leaving, though they are hard to get to. Since she's more motivated at getting rid of monsters than getting rich, the pile of gold is low on her priorities. Not that she objects to getting rich, but she doesn't want to be weighed down when fighting monster.
We now know where to find 2 powerful monsters, both in likely need for killing. Also both likely to be difficult to kill. But any of the other paths may lead to more monsters further back.
Which is a long winded way to say Gail's happy with any path other than the gold, which she would want to save till last.
Which location is immediately below our current location? Can it be reached by descending by rope?
The alive one is about fifty feet below all of you
The undead one is closer to the bottom
And, before combat starts. You guys can level up to level 11

Just the distance we can reach with a rope 😊 Assuming we have some place up here where we can secure it.
(OOC: Gail has leveled up. She can now attack 3 times in a round)
Gail asks the others, "Does anyone know what kind of thing a giant brain in a lake is?"
Arcana 23
It appears to be some sort of eldritch creation, which would probably be a good idea to ask Etrus about

JoJo grabs at a hint flying by and when he misses it he turns to Ertus, "Can you enlighten us to any insight concerning this eldritch brain in a lake thingy?"
Etrus has long studied Elder Brains. And yet … much about the creatures of this most famous death trap are different… and it is with that caveat that he speak.
“Ilsensine is their god, but they do not know him, for in each Elder Brain’s mind their own will and ego is supreme, their cognition … total, their will … irrefutable. Masters of psychic power, mind flayers and other non-Beholderkin aberrations are their servants, who act in line with their will at all times. Long separated from the Far Realms, they change little now, a fixed thought, a firm composition.”
”Their destruction is the reason for which I took my pacts and sought my power, and against them, I may do … ably. I would seek their ruin and their flesh for mine, if you would aid me. Already, at least the living one, will know that you all are here for it can sense minds within near miles, but not mine… my shielded thoughts mean it will not know I am with you.”
Gale asks, "So what does it take to kill something like that?"
"So, it’s a giant mind that can taste our thoughts from a mile away" Musashi grunts, looking down the dark shaft toward the 50 feet of rope Gail is securing. "I’ve fought armies and I’ve fought monsters, but fighting a 'thought' is a new one. At least it has a physical form we can smash."
He looks at Etrus, respecting the warlock's shielded mind. "If it doesn't know you're there, you're our edge. The rest of us will be the shield. If this Gargathnoth wants our heads, it'll have to break mine first."
He checks his gear, feeling the surge of his new martial prowess.
---
Musashi isn't one for long goodbyes, but he respects a warrior who knows when their watch is over. "Go then, Scarlett" Musashi grunts, adjusting the bindings on his Ō-yoroi armor. "A warrior's path is never a straight line. We’ll finish what we started here. Just make sure the next box you find is actually filled with gold." He turns back to Gail and Etrus, his expression hardening. "Looks like it's just us and the devil dog for this one. More brains for us to smash, I suppose..."
Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
I take it you all will secure a rope and climb down?

That's the plan, so as not to use our warlocks spell. That doesn't let us bring the hell hound down though 🙁
Presumably the guy who can fly at will will be flying to help out anyone having problems climbing down the rope.
