Bored & curious Criella strangely asks priestly Tante, "Could you bless me some priestly guidance as I'm going to draw out that horn and the last time that I dealt with it. Well. It was terribly possessive and I'm not renting space in my head."

"Of course." Tante Lude moves over to Criella.

Nyx sends his monkey to hide somewhere it can watch the stairs (west of the party) while he advances to the doorway of the room to support Tinkara should she need assistance.
OOC:
Guidance does not help with ST, that is Resistance. If we level up I or Tante could swap out guidance for Resistance. Seems a good idea given the situation Apr 6, 2025 4:11 pm
"Okay horn. I will remove you from your new hope. No funny business." as it again seems Criella is talking to it again.She removes her narrow backpack and gently places it upon the room's floor. With fast rubbishing, she carefully will touch magical horn and if nothing happens then she will fully grasp it and remove it from her backpack for all to see it again. "Are you with us?"

OOC:
Still only 4 out of 5 players voted hereI will provide update to game (taking into account some of things we discussed ooc but I'm still waiting for last player's input
Criella feel nothing and hear nothing as she touch the horn. Whatever it was it was one time effect she could assume.
Tante Lude remember now that she saw waht looked like a hidden door back in the hallway 10 feet from where you killed the flesh-and-armor creatures.

Semi disappointed Criella says as she is holding the magical horn, "Appears the ghost of the horn is gone. So, no help there.""Hopefully we have better luck with that." she points to Tink's area.

During the next hour Criella figure out that the horn provides her some magical benefits
And let's move forward - there are normal doors west and hidden doors south. There were also a room far south where only flying monkey were - you could also get there.
And there were a crawl way blocked - if you spend some time investigating it you will discover a way to unblock it, so there are quite few choices. What do you do?

Lude points out the hidden door to the others.
"If I may cast a spell before we move . . . "
She sits crosslegged, surprisingly smoothly and pulls out a set of polished bones.
Will opening this hidden door before the unhidden one bring us aid or harm?

[ +- ] Augury
By casting gem-inlaid sticks, rolling dragon bones, laying out ornate cards, or employing some other divining tool, you receive an omen from an otherworldly entity about the results of a specific course of action that you plan to take within the next 30 minutes. The GM chooses from the following possible omens:
Weal, for good results
Woe, for bad results
Weal and woe, for both good and bad results
Nothing, for results that aren’t especially good or bad
The spell doesn’t take into account any possible circumstances that might change the outcome, such as the casting of additional spells or the loss or gain of a companion.
If you cast the spell two or more times before completing your next long rest, there is a cumulative 25 percent chance for each casting after the first that you get a random reading. The GM makes this roll in secret.

Curious Criella feels better about the magical horn even if it does chat or anything with the ghost gone. She believes it is still useful and gets a new spot handy instead of in her backpack.She just watches on Tante does her thing. She still keeps thoughts to hunt down this "Acererak"

So far the secret passages of this place seem to be of more use, I am for opening the door. But that sounds less appealing. Serves me right for thinking anything in this pace is a good idea. I should have expected as much.
Well. If you are set on finishing the ritual I will aid if you ask, but the bones make the prospects of those who came before seem somewhat bleak.

As I expected, there is both risk and reward for opening this door. It would seem we should try then because anything we miss may be the key to a subsequent piece of this puzzle. Unless someone else volunteers, I will go first.

[/img] Succumbs looking Criella stretches her huge bat wings attractively a bit before exiting the temple's four frescoes room. She just never has fine opportunities to fly to the air much it totally seems lately as that is in the last few centuries.She gives newcomer Tobias a friendly smile as she does this. And makes sure her lavender scent is still well present. She is all comely cleaned up as much as her handy prestidigitation spell casting allows. Not a hair out of place. She is much a wanted beauty and a rather dangerous one.
She on watches as Tante finishes her informing ritual and we all are prepared to exit through the newly discovered secret door. She will easily fall into the party line up which is about the safe middle of the adventuring party and has her twin favored scimitars drawn in hands & ready for exciting melee action.
Note: I upgraded her avatar's picture.

I'm not sure if that means Tatne Lude is opening doors, but sing I see no player posting any other actions will assume she doesA crawlway goes east. Size just of others you seen: large enough to each of you to crawl it squeezed.

"A golden statue. Could this be the one we are supposed to put the coins in front of? Maybe here instead of in the other room where Tinks placed them? What do y'all think?"
Apr 14, 2025 1:59 am
[/img] "You really think so Tante. Here. Give me the coins and I will see." She puts away both her scimitars to free her hands up.

"I think the coins and the candle belonged in the other room... that's why the frescoes lit up.Did we finish with the bugs and the rat bones on the altar? We might want to finish that up."
Apr 14, 2025 12:36 pm
Yes, I would like to finish one challenge before facing another. Let us return and try that then. Lude leads the way back.
