Thats a definite.......probably maybe....though bronze would be too reactive she thinks....
( Nope. Though definitely something related to Earth.)
Tzedaka hands the flask to Banzo for safe keeping.
Then, without asking or waiting for the others, she lightly walks to the split and heads right.
She seems to be looking for something, or someone.
After 30' or so Tzedaka comes across a strange sight; an old wooden bench above which there is a sign, but the Painted words on the sign have all but flaked off. All you can rnake out is the first word which is 'Rest'. The tunnel continues on from here.
"Dis is a strange sight" Tzedaka says, pointing at the bench.
"Shalana" she calls and when near, Tzedaka grabs the light off Shalanas head compartment and holds it up to the letters, trying to decipher more, and changes the colors and brilliance of the light to see if any scratches or shades make the faded area stand out more.
"Vhat do you make of it?" she says to the group, "it is like me, out of place chere."
Enwynn eventually offers the honest answer "It could be, but bronze would be an unusual choice of material for the task if it is." then adds more thoughtfully "If it came from a collapsed section of tunnel, then perhaps the rockfall itself was due to a lack of effective elemental containment?"
She makes no protest at the strange device being taken from her hands and put in safer keeping as she stares at the roof of the tunnel above her, wondering if it was a mining mishap or a magical one that caused the avalanche behind the false wall.
When she finally looks away from the roof and notices that Tzedaka has walked away to further investigate, the elf silently follows after Shalana and looks at the faded sign and the bench in utter bewilderment.
Tzedaka: "it is like me, out of place chere."
Enwynn's face turns rosy in embarrassment, but she attempts to discern if there is more than one word to be seen above the bench.
Garet still musing about the strange collection of blocks they seem to be assembling a cube with a fire symbol and now a tetrahedron with earth, he didn't know if his comrades had seen him lift the fire cube so he removed it from his belt pack.
"Perhaps they go together, he showed the rest of the group, my guess is that water and wind, must be out there somewhere." He tosses the cube to Banzo might as well keep them together, whilst secretly wondering if when the two items are placed together there may be some sort of reaction, if so better a mage to handle it.
His thoughts then go towards the bench will tools in hand he looks for traps or any kind that might be activated if somebody sat there, figuring that the magic users will do the same for any sort of malicious enchantments.
(Is it clear that the Rest is the beginning of the bench, or are there spaces prior that could have been rubbed off, is it REST, Rest????)
Tzedaka will look at Enwynn with naivety, "Shall I sit chere Eenwynn of the forest?" (She is serious)
Among them they discover that the bench does indeed have a very slight magical vibration, it does not appear trapped at all and there were originally six or so words with REST being somewhere in the middle, the other words are sadly lost forever.
Garet: "Perhaps they go together? My guess is that water and wind, must be out there somewhere."
Enwynn looks both pleased by the find, and puzzled by the form as she replies to Garet's query "You may well be right about that, but there is something odd about the ones found so far. Whoever made these did not use the usual shapes associated with the elements shown in the markings. The four-sided pyramid would be fire, not earth from what I can recall, and the cube would be earth, not fire." then muses "Perhaps they were attempting some kind of elemental transformation, turning one element into another?"
She grows more concerned as she murmurs "Dangerous, and difficult to accomplish if what I have been told of such experiments in the past is correct."
Tzedaka: "Shall I sit chere Eenwynn of the forest?"
Enwynn answers in an equally serious tone "No one should sit on it, including you, until we have some idea of what it is doing here." then adds as she looks at the sign "No rest for the wicked? Hmm, I don't know if that would fit the spacing..." then looks to Tzedaka as she casually asks her "Are you wicked? I don't think you are, but you know you better than I do." while further investigations of the bench are carried out.
Garet satisfied that it wasn't trapped and wanting to make up for his indecision with the stone and the chain, sat down figuring that indeed he had been wicked and if there was no rest for him then we'll, so be it.
As Garet sat down he immediately felt well rested and alert as if he had just woken.
Garet has taken a Long Rest,
"What happened. Garet, how do you feel?"
Tzedaka looks at Enwynn, then Garet.
”Eenwyn, you ask the wrong question.”
“Garoot of Blacksand. Are you wicked?”
She then sits on the bench next to him, looking at Enwynn in sweet defiance
Garet in response to Herman's question "I feel, refreshed, not invigorated like Tzedakas touch, but refreshed if I had a good night's rest."
Turning to Tzedaka, wondering if she too was feeling the same sensation. "I try not to be, these days."
She smiles at him, "yes, we know."
She snuggles up on the bench next to him, perhaps not aware of her own boundaries.
(OOC: Not sure if it has an effect on her or if Garet used its charge?)
She is very curious about this bench. "Hum.....a chair of judgment! Perchaps Mottir has been chere!" She mutters something in celestial as her eyes turn pure white (Guidance on herself)
She will look closer at the bench and behind/ under the bench, while still sitting on it (looking for signs of secret door, bench being moved, something hidden under, a scale of justice or other sign of Libra, etc. (perception: 18+ Guidance: 2
Tzedaka:-
You gain the benefits of a Long Rest.
Tzedaka smiles and stretches her hands up toward the ceiling.
"Ah, it feels so refreshing sitting next to you Gayroot."
"Now, shall de cheroes continue or spend der day sitting in Zagor's mountain of death?"
Enwynn, silent and rosy-cheeked in embarrassment now, gingerly sits down on the bench.
Tzedaka laughs and gives Enwynn a big hug. Then she puts her head on her shoulder in affection.
"Eenwynn....."
On her touch, Enwynn feels (Heroism)
You gain the benefits of a Long Rest.
