Re: IC
Cultists Tyner figures. Could be trouble. Best to approach this with our eyes wide open.

Re: IC
You reach the base of the limestone cliffs. Dalir and Farhaad are already waiting for you there. Farhaad is in his late teens, and appears to be related to Dalir (his brother you would assume based on their ages). The two guides point out the entrance to the temple above you. It is a black, uneven crack in the limestone about five feet across and twenty feet high. The path up the cliff takes two hours, but the two villagers have brought show you exactly where the hands and footholds are. You know that this path would be significantly more difficult without them. Once you reach the threshold, you see that steps have been carved roughly by hand over countless years. Farhaad begins to make camp at the top of these stairs, and Dalir says in his native tongue, "Go, I'm sure your friend will be pleased to see you. Farhaad and I will wait here for your return."

Re: IC
Craig has to wonder whether they really will still be here waiting for them.

Re: IC
Craig and Rahimi can, thanks in no small part to the understanding of the villager's language, tell that the two guides are filled with an excited almost nervous energy.
Re: IC
"Our guides seem awfully excited about something," Craig says to his team in English.

Re: IC
Tyner hasn't been paying much attention to the guides. "Happy excited or scared excited?"
Re: IC
"They seem filled with some kind of nervous energy," says Craig, "like they're anticipating something is going to happen. Hard to say whether they're happy about it or not. Even if they think it's good for them, it might not necessarily be good for us."

Re: IC
"Should we leave someone behind to watch them? We could all start to head down the stairs and then I could turn around and sneak back up here," says Alex gesturing to the great, carved steps.

Re: IC
"Worth a shot," Tyner says. "Just to make sure they really head back. Then we'll start the climb."
Re: IC
"I hope they don't turn back," says Craig. "They said they would wait here for our return so they could guide us back afterwards. I was concerned they wouldn't wait."

Re: IC
"Good point. We better make sure we know the way back."
Re: IC
OOC: You would know how to climb back down the mountain although it would take longer and be more difficult without guides. |
Re: IC
"We can get back to the village if we have to," says Craig, "it'll just take longer and be harder. Let's get moving, and then Alex can double back and keep watch."

Re: IC
You descend between sheer walls of uncarved stone, unevenly, farther and farther. Light from above is soon lost. Not long after Alex splits off from the group, Rahimi points out that the walls are no longer limestone but are instead a strange, green-black substance. The green-black stone is cold and damp to the touch and seems to leave naked fingers dry as if it sucked the oil from the surface of the skin. When the stairs end at last, you find yourselves in a vast chamber. The walls and floor are shaped more intricately than the long stairs. Ahead of you are yet more chambers.
OOC: Make Conx5 checks please, and is anyone using night vision goggles or are all of you relying on flashlights? |
Re: IC
Craig still feels inexplicably exhausted.

"No, I feel weak, doc," says Craig. He stops and stares at the designs in the rock. "This is amazing! I wonder when it was carved. It shows modern knowledge, but it looks ancient."
