Pax turns back to Sekkar, about to reply....then thinks about it. She seems to struggle for a moment, then shrugs and says, "I don't know. I don't imagine an angel ever exuding so much hatred as that one there seems to be doing. They're angels, I presume they're the antithesis of hatred, or.....shame, or wickedness. What do I know? Just the stories I was read by the priests." She shrugs. "I presume if we break of a fragment of rock, that it'd be enough of.. a feather."
Pax waits to see what Rhayna can tell them about the statues...hoping she can shed some light on the matter.
Kaylyndetects no magic auras in the vicinity, and she reaches out and touches the stone arm of the fourth angel. Two things immediately happen in Kaylyn's mind. First, she somehow knows that this angel is named Lorabelios. Second, she hears a soft voice say in Common: Do not lose hope! which message fills Kaylyn with confidence as though her own patron had spoken. (Kaylyn’s next Wisdom saving throw can be made with advantage.)
Paxstands ready to defend the group, somewhat spooked by the lifelike poses, as though they may come to life any moment, as well as by the creepy way in which the figures are slowly being absorbed into the stone of the cave.
Sekkarsenses no immediate danger, but reaches out with his highly-attuned senses... and feels a world of color explode around him! There are celestials in the cave with him. There are several aberrations, elementals and undead scattered within a six-mile radius. He detects no fey or dragons. But the number of fiends in the area is almost overwhelming. Apart from the one that brought them here, there must be hundreds within the range of his senses...
Kirinapproaches the same angel as Kaylyn, also reaches out his hand and almost grabs one of the feathers to snap it off, but pauses when the bookish cleric suggests he wait.
Rhaynarecalls having read some vague stories of angels offending the gods and being punished. Perhaps these petrified angels could be one example of this manner of divine vengeance, but that's all she can deduce. In her attempt to verify her theories by examination, she touches... 7 ...the one kneeling on the floor with its face in its arms. Immediately she senses that this angel is named Tamiel, and she hears a soft voice say in Common: What would you know? Ask and I shall answer.(Rhayna, please make an Intelligence saving throw.)

"This place is crawling with demons. Not only demons, others too." Sekkar named all the monsters his senses picked up. He did not try to pluck the feather or anything but continued to watch the surroundings.
"... Kaylyn may have lost it,. They''re talkin to themselves," Kirin states as he waits, his hand hover near a feather.

Kaylyn receives no further verbal response, but continues to feel the telepathic link from Lorabelios. The angel conveys a feeling of repentance, acceptance and patience related to its own fate, continued encouragement for Kaylyn and her own challenges (and those shared by her companions), an approval to remove one of her feathers, and a sense of hope that the contribution will make some beginning to atone for their sins. With this approval, Kirin finally snaps one stony feather from the end of the wing of the petrified angel Lorabelios.
Two down, one to go. More if you think you need them...
Pax and Sekkar remain vigilant, scanning the area for threats, but there are no demons in sight. Suddenly Rhayna gasps, releases her touch from the kneeling angel she was examining, and flees from the cave with an expression of horror on her face...

Kaylyn approaches the smiling angel that is covering its eyes with one arm. Reaching out quickly, she snaps a feather quickly off the angel's wing, instantly knowing that the angel's name is Silnia.
(Kaylyn: Please make a Wisdom saving throw)
Vizeran watches the entire proceedings with an impassive nonchalance. That makes three feathers. Shall we acquire one more to be certain?
===================================
Sekkar chases after Rhayna, but she moves surprisingly quickly, and he doesn't catch up to her until she has passed all the way back down the corkscrew tunnel, back into the chamber they arrived in, and a good hundred feet along a side tunnel. When Sekkar finally reaches Rhayna, she has stopped suddenly, staring down the tunnel ahead. Walking backwards and forwards across the width of the passage are three almost-human-sized creatures that appear to be made of metal. Two are round with spindly appendages, and simply walk until they hit the wall and then walk in the opposite direction until they hit the opposite wall. The third is the shape of an inverted pyramid with about nine limbs, and seems to be attempting (unsuccessfully) to convince the other two to move along the passage rather than across it.

Pax stands idly by, so she pulls out a piece of chalk. On the entrance they came from she puts an arrow pointing into the room with a star next to it. She adds chalk pointing back down the tunnel and scribbles, "Sekkar and Rhayna went back this way".
Done her art project she tucks the chalk away and turns back to the room. She glances sideways at the Slaad, her suspicious glance hidden by her helm and the cloud of black around her, though she keeps a keen eye on both the wizard and his servant.

Kirin sigh as he looks down the hallway where the two went, "If push comes to shove, I can possibility Locate them if needed but I rather save the slot for danger. So who want to lead the way? Ideally someone who can track but keep everyone keep an eye out. This is a hunting ground for gnolls and a home for minotaur's," Kirin cast Mage Armor on himself before venturing after Sekkar and Rhayna.

Kaylyn inhales sharply, not out of fear or danger but from the rush of emotions and confidence that fills her.
She speaks softly, "Lorabelios, I am Kaylyn Lightsorrow. How can we help you? Are you trapped? What happened here?"
The connection she feels with Lorabelios is strong, she knew she had chosen the correct one to touch.
"We need feathers from angels to stop a demonic threat to the world. Can we take one from you, from the others?"
Pax looks to Sekkar, then casts a See Invisibility on herself, glancing around once more.

Kaylyn looks around at the others unsure which one next.
"Yes, another would be best. We are here now, best to take advantage and gather more than needed in case we are delayed and more end up being needed."
She then goes to #5 and takes a feather.
"I must run... I must run... I must run... Too much information!!! I can't..." The information overload from the Angel Tamiel is too much for Rhayna to handle. "I must run... I... Must... Run..." Rhayna stops running, and she sees strange creatures...
