So, hole going up (blocked with Adamantine); pine needles; table & chair; Santa’s plate and coco mug; a handful of (4) red holiday lights & a handful (5) of green… that’s it. Nothing else here? (3 +) (Perception = +5 / Investigation = +2)
"Ehh...I s'pose you're right, Tallboots. No sense luggin' all this junk around right now. It'd be fantastic t' take back with us and we may not get back to it, but better to leave it here than get hurt fetchin' it. So..."
A rather dour, sour look came over Ilyara's face. "...all that leaves is th' Mess o'Doors, yeah?"
With the drop is water level, it is easy to see the walk path around the vampire fish pool and avoid the hungry swimmers.
You stand before a door as before, it looks like the rest, with a push plate. The door has no obvious traps or triggers, just a few boring worms. You feel like you have been here before.

Ilyara glared at the offending doors for a moment, then slipped her Boon of Father Christmas off its spot on her clothes for a moment and held it up to the door.
"In the name of the saviors of Christmas, I command you to open!" . .. ..."What?" she asked, looking back at the others. "Don't cost nothing to try..."

OOC: Please refresh my memory, this was the furthest we had gotten in the Russian nesting doors, right? Was this one wood, or had we finally reached an iron door? You say no traps/triggers, and a push plate. Am I correct in presuming that means no lock?

That way if there's a giant fireblast or a bunch of magma or whatever, the tent keeps at least two've us safe and we can try and rush out once the evil's done to save the other two? Kinna hedge our bets, make sure whatever nasty buggery this damn mountain pulls next can't get all of us. Maybe the beginnin's of a plan?"

Tommary will check around for any signs of shenanigans or other changes to the door frame and mechanism since the last time we were here. Perception20.
“Last time Ely and 9 yanked it open. But since Ely has that battering Ram of hers, why not she just smash ‘em off their hinges so they can’t ever close again? Then, when we to that third door we can figure it out there. Yeah?”

OOC: Added the holiday lights to Tommary's inventory as he's using them as a wearable for the moment.
IC: "Yeah, to the ventricles of the beast, I guess."

OOC: This is the entry way to the doors.

OOC: But we had made it three doors down the corridor before, hadn’t we? I mean, we made it far enough to know they are nesting doors, so….
Is this correct?

OOC: Yes, correct, you are at the doors. I believe Ilyara is standing before the first.
They are not exactly nesting, they are about 10 feet apart and you remember they were difficult to open (STR 22) but closed on their own.

No traps other than they close on their own, and become progressively more banded in metal. You did not open the third door.
