As the priestess heads toward the old mine works tunnel, looking for the broken container with the water sigil, she assesses herself to try to figure out what is wrong. She feels like she has a weight on her body, her chest tight, and it is a bit harder to breath. Maybe its just the air and evil of this retchid place, or...maybe it is the presence of Shakor that is affecting her. Well, she must get the container and return. She hurries on, (Dash)
Master Red Robes: " Security? In here? There is none. We would not allow a threat to penetrate this far.......um, previous to today a threat was not allowed to penetrate this far...........well, there was one previous occurrence. But it is not.....common..."
Enwynn seems amused at this and asks "Nonetheless, it has happened once before now? How interesting. Who was this previous intruder?"
Master Red Robes: " I believe they are abductees from surrounding settlements that were deemed unsuitable for transplants yet not so unfit for purpose as to be disposed of. I believe with his.....physical limitations....Former Master Zagor mostly just used them for decoration rather than any....recreational purpose."
"A blessing of sorts..."the druidess murmurs in a voice carefully devoid of emotion. In the same coldly dispassionate tone she asks, no, commands Master Red Robes"I task you with finding the supplies required by Master Herman, Master Banzo and Master Garet here to help these former ornaments regain the use of their wits and their bodies as quickly as possible. Do not disappoint me in this."
Tzedaka: "I do not trust at all. Any who associate with Zagor are evil and beyond forgiveness."
"You say they are beyond redemption?"Enwynn whispers back in a troubled tone "Even those who were once his servants and who have aided us in the past?"
As the implications of Tzedaka's words sink in further, she pleads in a voice no louder than a breath "Must we destroy every single person who ever willing or unwilling bowed to Zagor's will?"
Banzo: "Should we get a night's rest to recover from the fight with Zagor?"
Banzo will take out the crystal ball and hold it close peering inside wondering what secrets it holds.
"Or just take an hour to recuperate?"
The elf is about to reply when the shadow of another vague but urgently demanding memory flits across her mind...
OOC: Enwynn makes an Arcana check on crystal balls and their associated risks. Enwynn gets 14. I need to know if she knows about them or not before I can figure out what to do next IC.
(ooc: one of the reasons Banzo was asking about whether it would be a long rest or short rest was he planned on trying to attune to the crystal ball... if it was magical.)

"A rightful place awaits you in the Realms Above, in the Land of the Great Light. Come in peace, and live beneath the sun again, where trees and flowers grow."
— The message of Eilistraee to all decent drow.
"Run thy sword across my chains, Silver Lady, that I may join your dance.”
"It, looks like we stay, these people are not in shape enough to travel." He starts taking the Ivory sculptures (statuettes?) out from under the futon and laying them on top, then looks at the emerald earring "Interesting"

" Yes, Mistress.", the red robed man went to a recessed alcove and pulled forth a number of casks of wine and preserved fruits, meats and cheeses distributing them to the Heroes and the released prisoners.
" The previous intruders? The women who slew our master the first time...."
Tzedaka is leaving the room but has told no one where she is headed.
Tzedaka makes her way through the amphitheatres and down into the laboratory, the place seems to have been hurriedly stripped clean by those who fled after Zagors death, moving on she finds no sign of the goblin that had assisted them before assuming he left with his brethren as they fled.
She moves into the dwarven delvings and passes through them without incident...though perhaps returning she will need to make another offering......as she steps into the newer corridors again she hears the sound of marching boots coming towards her from the intersection ahead....
Tzedaka will quietly hide behind something hoping the marchers will pass (guidance to help hide) If trouble, will cast sanctuary.
Tzedaka flattens herself around the corner as the troop of armoured skeletons marches past her toward the dwarven delvings....she knows from previously that at some point soon they will turn about and march back....she tries to recall if there is anywhere to hide near enough to her current location....or will she face the dead?
She will hide in the brain slayers area. (She is acting a bit strange (basically confused/ like having a concussion) as part of her "evolution.")
The living mantle curls around Tzedaka as she retreats into the shadows of the slick flesh....the 'room' seems to grow out from a central polyp and there are a number of vacuoles and protuberances that have unknown uses...after a while the skeletons march back past her heading in the direction she is....
Waiting a little longer the way seems clear as long as she doesn't catch them up.
She will quickly search the room, then continue to the area Enwynn mentioned (perception: 23) starting to wonder why she is doing this She also notes that some of her hair is falling out

( Long Rest or Short? And does anyone else wish to inspect the items Banzo found?)

Tannin looks for a place to wash his hands and does so.

Banzo spends the time studying the crystal ball ( https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/4610-crystal-ball ), as he does so Ennwyns studies note it seems safe enough...
The group settled in for a while to rest....
( Take a short rest.)

Tzedaka flattens herself around the corner as the troop of armoured skeletons marches past her toward the dwarven delvings....she knows from previously that at some point soon they will turn about and march back....she tries to recall if there is anywhere to hide near enough to her current location....or will she face the dead?
(Is three a room nearby out of their sight? She just wants to get the water flask.)
She recalls that up ahead is the Brain Slayers organic looking home....she could likely hide among the fleshy shrouds when the dead return.
I'll note that Tzedaka didn't wait to check with her that Ennwyns recollection about the Elemental container was correct...
She will hide in the brain slayers area. (She is acting a bit strange (basically confused/ like having a concussion) as part of her "evolution.")
