Rhogar frowns and frowns ever more as the sole Magen managed to endure the combined assault of his fellows. "Despite their physique, those things are more resilient than I gave them credit." He quietly admits, prior to then "hmming"and stroking his chin. "I wonder if the secret of their creation remains int-stop that. Focus, Rhogar, fooocus." Despite the self-admonishment, the dragonborn began to smile again as he drew once more from the weave and let loose more potentially devasting blasts of raw magical force and will from the palm of his hands.

"Indeed Rhogar, they were very resilient. It could be useful to find a way to recreate them." says the dwarf as he kneels down to examine one of the chainmails. "The armours also display an high level of craftmanship, I will bring one back to Axeholm." Krom carefully take the nearest chainmail and places it within his backpack. After the dwarf points at one of the greatswords. "I would like to take a couple of those two with me, would it be ok to put them in your arcane bag Rhogar?" asks to the Dragonborn. As he waits for Rhogar's reply, Krom scratches his chin adding "They are not enchanted right?"
After Rhogar's reply, the dwarf walks by Oli and patting the owlbear's head says to Kazri "You have to be more careful lass; we can't afford to lose you."
"Shall we proceed towards the Observatory now?" says the dwarf after a few minutes. As he waits for the group's reply, Krom eats the treat prepared in the morning by Rhogar. "Delicious!"
"Why not all of them? We can always sell the rest in as, eh, netherese artifacts, I suppose. Be they enchanted or not. But, I would prefer to check them later for such things, as the wands magic is fairly limited in what I can draw out daily."Rhogar says while approaching the site of the fray, ready and quick to start collecting the remaining arms and armor for his bag of holding.
Yet the dragonborn's focus wavers in the wake of the dwarf's warning to their less than cautious paladin of late. Still, the task of retrieval would be completed before Rhogar stood tall once more and ready to address Kazri. "Master Krom has the right of it. More to the point, I am becoming worried, Lady Kazri. First you tail after Chill despite us all knowing he has more than the skill to manage scouting on his own, especially with Gorrah at his side... Even if granted, she did forget to join him that last time." Gorrah, who by that point had once again taken up residency on Chill's shoulder, bowed her head in shame. But Rhogar snorts and shakes his head in seeing the reaction.
In the wake of the smile that started to bloom as well, it soonfalters upon dragonborn's regarding of Kazri once more. "Also... truthfully, I hadn't quite seen what happened. But if what Chill called out earlier about you trying to take from the guards as if they were... they were... well, mere manikins is true, then... *sigh*... Is everything alright, Lady Kazri?"He asks worriedly. Though if she and the others insist on walking and talking, then he acquiesces on that front. Yet Kazri would remain largely his focus until he received some sort of answer.
As the last Construct disintegrates. “Stay down!!” Yells Kazri as she stomps on the dust left behind. Oli gives a surprised grunt, and nudges his big nostrils on Kazri’s side. “What?? Oh…” Kazri looks around like she just got out of a trance. The halo around the Paladin’s neck blazes with golden radiance, something that hasn’t happened for some time. However, as it dims one notices that this time the color is off, darker than it used to be.
After hearing her friend’s comments on her behavior. “I… I apologize my friends. Perhaps, it is this place. It might be affecting me. I think. I apologize… I shall be more vigilant.” Then she kneels down, and touches her head with Oli’s. “I apologize to you are well.”
Kazri stands back up, shakes her head slightly. “We should proceed to the Observatory.”

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
Chill reaches down and retrieves his rapier, slipping it back in its sheath. He then walks back to the others after taking a quick look around.
He grabs the armor and sword of the magen he dispatched when he sees the others collecting the others. He folds the chain mail armor enough to get into his own Bag of Holding before placing the sword in as well.
He rejoins the others and hears the conversation about Kazri and her apology.
He chooses not to say anything negative to her and only gives her a nod. "Always have your back Kazri."
He does silently note that the halos light is off.
"This place gives me the creeps too, lass."says Krom, his expression softens as he gently pats Kazri's shoulder "We all care about you; let us know if we can be of help."
In a brief glance Rhogar clocks the change in the halo and looked all the more worriedly at Kazri. But in the wake of the apology and the others sharing of both their concern and support for the paladin, the dragonborn could but only let out a sigh of reluctant acceptance along side a nod. Before then in a sweeping gesture towards the next tower, beckoned for the others to lead the way. But going forward the dragonborn intended to keep a closer eye on the paladin.

Crossing back across the courtyard you make your way to the observatory.
This conical tower is held relatively upright by a ring of arched buttresses. Expressionless humanoid figures stand in silence around it. The roof has a large, ragged hole in it where something large smashed through.
The humanoid figure are the same as those you just defeated or Kazri saw inside the House of Silk. Three of the Magen, three of the others and one other.
"I will not touch anything this time, I promise. However, allow me to try to enter the tower. Perhaps the constructs might be defending it." Kazri suggest, but will wait for everyone's approval of her plan.

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
Krom shakes his head "We should stay together, we do not know what we might encounter inside." The dwarf pats Kazri's shoulder "Should the constructs oppose us, we will deal with them, together. You are a formidable warrior, but remember Kazri, you are not alone." says Krom in a softer and firm tone of voice.
"Perhaps? I'm rather sure they are guarding the place. But what will set them off this time? At the last place they left us alone till we tried to take something. They may not let us enter at all. But we need something from in there so if it's a fight, so be it."
Chill readies his crossbow.
"I'll stay back and be ready to fight if they attack."
Both Rhogar and Gorrah nod firmly in agreement from their respective position to Krom's words of wisdom. "I couldn't have said it better myself. Nor shall I try for that matter, least I diminish the moment."The dragonborn chuckled, but before long looked from the Tabaxi back to the constructs. "Hmn. I believed I suggested as much before, but mayhaps to go a step beyond just guessing passwords in my native tongue, perhaps that... 'orb' can make itself useful again, and try and converse with them, yes?" Rhogar suggests as much to the party, and with the approval of the attempt, readily followed along up to 40ft-ish from the tower. Gorrah takes the opportunity to change stoops and rides along with her scaled compatriot, if but to make sure to have a chance at a more claws on assistance at a moment's notice.

"You make a sound suggestion Rhogar. The Professor might be able to communicate with those constructs or at worst help us in our exploration of the Observatory." replies Krom as he too walks about at 40ft from the tower. The dwarf takes out the Professor Orb from his backpack. As the Orb begins to float, Krom asks the Professor "Are you able to converse with those constructs?In any event, follow us as we explore this tower; your expertise might prove to be valuable."
Krom takes out Professor Skant who promptly chides you. "You have finally come to the realization that you really do need my help have you? Took you long enough. I am the expert here and you can't even speak the language. Really, I had hoped you would ask for my help sooner. That one over there, the dragonborn, even suggested it. But alas, you cannot be counted on for even something as simple as that."
His condescending voice drolls on.
"So, what have we got now? Oh, I see, some of the locals. Constructs it looks like. You know about these? Well of course you don't. They are magen. The mages here create them and they follow instructions without hesitation. When their task is complete, a magen stands immobile and silent until its creator gives it new orders. I surmise it is highly likely that these have been set to guard this tower. They will defend it with near certainty."
Professor Skant has created a Mage Hand and is now being carried by it and floats near Krom.

The last Magen disintegrates and there are 6 sets of chainmail armor and greatswords left on the ground in front of the Hall of Silk
"Indeed Rhogar, they were very resilient. It could be useful to find a way to recreate them." says the dwarf as he kneels down to examine one of the chainmails. "The armours also display an high level of craftmanship, I will bring one back to Axeholm." Krom carefully take the nearest chainmail and places it within his backpack.
