The Valley of Ends

How high is the ceiling?

ceiling is about 20ft high

Onyx will just sit down for a minute to rest. "If anyone could pick me up a small trinket from the big guy there, would be great." 

After a moment he will uncoil the rope from his bag and start to make knots in it and put in on the floor. Soon after you see the shadow of the rope riseing on the wall, before the rope itself follows its shadow. Aroynd 1ft before it reaches the ceiling, the rope will sudenly disapear. It keeps on rising, you just don.'t see where the topend is going.

"I am going to sleep up there for an hour, there is enough space for all of us, althoug you may need to pull Bersk up there on a rope." 

With that Onyx climbs up into the pocket dimension, to tiered to search the corpse. 

Spell: rope trick 

Anyone else doing anything during this time?

Resfaen will help up those to stand that need it and look over everyone's body. "I am not too big a fan of resting in a room with an enemy but it seems Onys has the solution, I like it. During that time Gotch you should cat detect magic as I assume something in here is magical." At which point she will go and search the dead paladin body.

Investigation: 6

The Paladin has plate armor that seem to mending itself despite his death, the whip is obivous. Resfaen finds several trinkets on his belt from what seem like bones to a golden key. Resfaen's disguest with the oathbreaker seems to hinder her search of the body. 

Salys and his companion are unscathed by the short fight, and though he stays away from the elemental, he moves up to try and perform a more thorough search after watching Resfaen trying to search it without touching it, flicking a switch on his pistol and taking a deep breath of a faint wisp of gas it releases.

Investigation with guidance: 10+1

Fingolin tries to speak to the water elemental. He'll try Common and Elvish: "Your master is dead. Can we cease hostilities? Do you want to get out of this place?"

Seeing Resfaen only come up with a few items, Fingolin offers to have a look, too. "That armour has got to have some hiding places. Where is he keeping his coin purse, if not?"

Investigation: 9 (oh, well)

 (edit: I didn't see Ismenow's post)

Salys searches the the body just looking (which is perception and changing it to that 10 + 1 +1) as Resfaen moves around finds noth much more than Resfaen through he does seem to think the key is of some importance. 

Fingolin attempts to appeal to the water elementals but get shots of water harmless flying at him in response. 

Gotch after some times finially finishes ritually casting his spell. Once against the location itself gives of an conjuration aura of magic. Ergion himself gives a lot of different auras. The whips gives off Transmutation magic. The armor gives off abjuration magic and the key Salyas points out is conjuration matching the location.

Rolling HP for my short rest in the pocket dimension:

11 + 6 + 4 + 6 + 7

Salys will take the key for now, helping Gillain strip the armor of the figure if he'd like and hold up the whip, "Anyone have any desire for this whip? If not, I'll just hang onto it until we know what it does. As for this key, perhaps its related to the way the building responded to his will? I'd like to go back to that servant in the first room, maybe if I'm holding the key, he'll answer a few questions about how to use it. Coming?"

"I can identify anything that is questionable."  Gotch says as the magic items are detected with his spell.

Short Rest 2 HD: 19

 Resfaen will stand guard over the others as they go about their business, paying particular attention to the blasphemous paladin. Making sure no surprises come from its direction.

Quote from Shodai_Kishi >>

Fingolin attempts to appeal to the water elementals but get shots of water harmless flying at him in response. 

 "Suit yourself, then!"

Fingolin goes up in the pocket dimensions for a quick rest, muttering some words on the way there to dry his clothes with Prestidigitation.

Hit dice: 11  4 8 

So Finoglin, Resfaen and Onyx will take an ahour to rest as Salys goes to question the servant and Gotch offers to identify the items. 

Whip

 Armor

 Key

While licking his wounds (literally), Onyx asks Fingolin and Rasfaen: „If you could ask Ergion 5 questions, what would you ask him? I would like to know why he lost his way and turned to demonic arts and what happened with the group that came before us.“

Gotch would fill the others in on what he learned about the magic items.

After Gotch identifies it, Salys heads to that servant and holds it up to him, "Nearly as I can tell, having this makes me the new master, correct? So how do I release all the spirits and ghosts trapped here?"

The servant takes a moment to examining Salys as he holds up the key, "I will requires some paperwork to be done," He waves his hand and a desk appear in front of the fireplace. After a moment, the servant makes a shorter to accommodate both of them before he works to the fireplace side and seats down. He pulls a scroll from somewhere upon his person and unrolls it onto the table. 

"Please sign at the bottom to receive ownership," The servant states, "Any major changes to the Residence can be done afterward," The contract what looks like a layout of the location with a series of celestial text underneath. At the top of the scroll in a different handwriting is "Welcome to the Residance. Have some fun - Leomund"

Salys examines the text briefly before looking back up, "Any chance you can translate this into gnomish?"
