"Oh come on," Alexander pauses, running through what happened in his mind. He understands Harmony's logic, but he still thinks that he was on to something. "Wait, I went through He is going to go through 2, if he comes out 2, he goes back in again. Assuming he comes out 4, he goes back in 4. If he comes out 6, he will go back into 6 instead of going through 4 again like he did last time.

Tek-Tagak says, "Yes this does appear to be working." He follows and Cage follows as well. Following the pattern, when you come out of 8, you go back through 8, come out 10, and go back through 10. Once you go back though 10, you end up in a familiar corridor. The same corridor you went down to get into the Room of Reversal. Everyone make a perception check please!
Explanation:
To go forward you must only go back. To go back you must first go forward.
Basically saying you need to get back to the first corridor in order to proceed with the game. However you did need to start with going forward, (going through a mirror) then to continue forward you had to go back, (into the same mirror you left). Lol, like I said, this took my last group a very long time, until they found out they just needed to count by 2s. (This is also the hardest riddle out of the four you'll go through)
"Yes!" Alexander raises a fist in excitement when he finds himself back in the original corridor. Then he quickly looks around to make sure that the others followed him.
Well, it's a good thing you didn't need to roll very high...
Angelino, on above the original portal (The one with the mirror doorframe) you see what looks like a rectangular shield.
Harmony you hear:
"Look there Harmony! says Tek-Tagak, "That's one of the relics. I'm pretending i haven't noticed it yet but I can't keep up the act for long...." As he says this he is deliberately not looking at the doorframe, instead he is looking at the mirror, waiting for Cage to come through. "If Cage gets it, it will be nearly impossible for you to beat us. We already have one relic. Which i'm sorry to say even if you do defeat us, will disappear since you didn't complete the puzzle to get it. Hurry!"
Harmony lunges for the shield. “Ah ha! I’ve got it! It’s ours!”
Info on the Shield:
Shield of Reversal— Appearance: An odd looking rectangular shield with two arrows as the emblem. (Looks a lot like a uno reverse card.) On the back, written on the edge, is it's name. Abilities: +4 to armor. Cannot be used with another shield. Three charges replenish after long rest. You can expend one charge to “reverse” any attack. You may choose to do this as a reaction after any attack, made by any creature. This will cause that creature’s attack to be directed back at it. If the attack originally targeted multiple creatures, you can choose to either retarget it at the attacker dealing all of the damage to the attacker, or retarget it at the same number of different creatures of your choice.
"No, dear Harmony, You owe me nothing." He replies kindly, "I have thought on your predicament, and I believe your situation may be different than mine. I don't want you to die, and I am afraid that if I am correct, My killing you may actually result in a death. If you kill me, I will just re-spawn. If I kill you... We are going to have to fight now. I can only hold back a little so be ready. I'm sorry we had to meet this way. "
At that moment, Cage comes through the mirror. He yells, "NOOOO! They got it!" Tek-Tagak turns around and sees Harmony with the Shield. "I'm sorry to say, our Alliance must now come to an end." With that he lifts his staff into the air and slams it down on the ground. Cage jumped in front of him and is running towards you. As he does this you notice it looks like he is growing. Suddenly, the corridor you are standing in starts to glitch, now, you are standing outside again with all of the remaining door frames. Cage continues to approach you, however, he is no longer a Kobold, He is now a (relatively) small Green Dragon.
“Oh, it’s 100% necessary! Get them my valiant knight! Just don’t bleed on me! Oh! I can actually stop that! Just keep fighting! I’ll keep you from bleeding everywhere” Angelino prepares to heal Alexander whenever he takes damage…
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Sur--" Alexander's word is cut off as he suddenly begins to grow. He is still a bit conflicted about attacking our former allies, but since there is now a small green dragon charging at him... When Cage comes within melee range, Alexander swings his axe at the dragon's neck using Divine smite as well.
You come out of 2

You come out 8
Harmony will follow Alexander's pattern, as it seems to be working.

Perception: 10
George follows the pattern.
Perception: 15

Off, you guys didn’t do so hot on perception… I got a… 5
anyway Angelino shouts “I DID IT!” As soon as they edict the room.
Perception: 9

Hey, another use for my brokenly overpowered poison immunity! Also my wizardliness....
"Alexander! Would you be so inclined to allow me to enlarge you? To do so very well could allow you to more effectively combat this monstrous foe."
If Alexander is willing, George casts enlarge on him.

To hit13 Damage: 11 fire damage: 7 Smite: 8
Lucky for you George! Cage doesn't seem to have control of his newfound poison breath! As he walks closer, poisonous gas seeps from between his teeth.
everyone (accept George and Harmony because she is behind everyone right now) must succeed a Constitution save of 11 for half damage.
Or take 29 poison damage.
Oh, I forgot to add the extra damage: 3
