Vixia The Wealthy And Righteous Swords

6 And removing it from inventory...

I swear I rolled 2d4 but it shows just1....  either add 3

Or use a proper full roll of:  9

Conveniently they both work out to 9. :)

Sounds good, Olivia has healed up some.  What do you all want to do? Take a short rest, or push on?

     Gorm suggests we rest up heal.  We all need a bit of a breather, she suggests.  "Unless someone knows a pressing reason to not rest before exploring more?"

Sitting down on the floor, Talinian sighs deeply.  "My apologies, companions.  I thought the sphere would keep them out.  I do not know about all of you but I need time to rest and recover.  I am out of spells, except for my cantrips."  He knows Olivia has been badly injured but does not want to injure her pride by pointing that out.

   "Your spells, my Ki... and my poor bruised body!  Just someone keep an eye on each door while I close my eyes for a bit," Gorm adds.

"A short rest, yes. And you could have saved that potion, I still had a few spells with which to heal."

Now that they have time to breath, Bones goes over to Gorm and takes her by the shoulders and stares into her eyes and studies her face and expression, "What did you see? When you fell. Was there something on the other side of life waiting for you? What did you SEE?" He says this last part firmly.

   "Sorry, even if I was counting your spells I don't know how many you can do," Gorm chides.  "I see a companion down I am going to try to get them back to their feet.  How you doing anyway, Olivia?"

   "Whoa!  Whoa!" Gorm exclaims, pushing bones firmly away form her.  "Back off!  All I saw was statues and weapons and darkness and..."

   Gorm remains quiet for a long moment, looking off into the distance, before finally continuing. "And an orange toad calling to me, summoning me, promising me paradise eternal if I could just answer his three questions...  Olivia, did you see the toad??"  Gorm tosses Olivia a wink when Bones definitely isn't looking...

(@Kaem - Would you roll a deception check for Gorm? I want to see if that beats Bones' passive insight of 15.)

((LoL, mainly intended as a jest, but sure!))

Orange Toad Diety Deception:  19

(OOC - I know, but I wanted to see whether Bones would pick up on it or not, and hence where to go with it.)

Bones, not noticing the wink or the jesting remark, pulls out a notebook and starts scribbling notes. "Orange toad... paradise... three questions. What were the questions? Do you remember? If there is a final destination, perhaps there is a path back to the natural world," Bones says this last part to himself, quietly. Then he turns to Olivia, "Olivia, tell me what you saw?" He waits expectantly, ink at the ready for note-taking.

   "The question?" Gorm asks, acting confused?  "What questions?  I didn't mention any questions...  Did I?"  After that Gorm vehemently denies any knowledge of toad or questions or anything besides being momentarily knocked unconscious.

Olivia stands up, hazily. Still groggy and visibly annoyed, "What? Toad? Are you supposed to see something when you're dying?"

Talinian smiles tiredly at the antics of his companions.  "Before we rest I suggest it would be prudent to search this room and that one," he indicates the statue room, "just to be safe."

Suiting actions to words, he begins to carefully search the room they are in.

Investigation 25

After the rest, Korba will help investigate the statues, and the glaives that they are carrying.

So the Stone Knights are now just crumbles of rock, same with their glaives.  

The only thing that you can find other than the Stone Knights is the stone sarcophagus that you already know about.

Bones investigates the sarcophagus in the current room (after escaping the statues) after writing his notes on Gorm's toad, and puzzling over his comments (Investigation: 6).

Talinian moves his attention to the sarcophagus as well.

Investigation 9

There are three lines on it one over the other.

The first is in celestial, the next is a form of elvish that Korba recognizes, if he looks at it, but can't figure it out at first.  The last is common it reads 

Chaszeth Teken'sek

Once Korba sees the name he looks back up to the middle language and he knows that it says the same thing.

Other than that there is nothing special about the sarcophagus, the lid is just sitting on top of it, no traps.  It would take a group effort to take the lid off.
