Log
Heading Down
- Gather up at Drake Biloko's underground meeting spot
- Need to plan for intense heat
- Enemies and environments both
- Prepare environmental endurance spell scrolls and various fire resistance tools
- Spend 3 days heading into the depths of the caverns
- Come across a battlement
- Guarded by a golem, soot soldiers, and an ancient magma dragon swimming below
- Golem threw rocks
- Soot soldiers engulfed areas in smoke
- Magma dragon flew about and incinerated large areas, possessed good-quality hide
- Clear them out and retreat to less scorching areas to heal out
Within the Battlements Pt.1
- Return to the battlements
- Head inside and down
- Reach the depths of the battlement at the peak of the heat
- Spot a powerful Ifrit man inside
- Attempt to sneak in
- Spot Lerritan, as well as large robot
Machine Analysis
- Fossil-like construction made of brass
- Construct seems made to resist magic
- Well-made durable brass form also resists physical strikes
- Can exhale burning smoke to shroud an area and burn foes within
- Logically, seems immune to fire as well
- Falchion it wields is super-heated just by holding it
- Tragically, it explodes upon ceasing of full-functions
- Would gladly hire its constructor at the Mechanic Shop
Within the Battlements Pt. 2
- Lerritan erupts molten rock across us as we enter
- I narrowly escape, others trapped within
- Draw attention of the Ifrit as I hide behind a large sconce
- Fight the Ifrit for some time
- Others slowly escape rocks and enter room
- Kali is attacked by the robot
- Her magic seems potent enough to fend off most of its efforts
- Lerritan continues aggressing us
- Shot from Shadefrost causes the Lerritan to become confused
- Unleashes a Cataclysm spell upon us all
- Thankfully we resist or escape the worst of it
- I try to convince the Ifrit to stand down
- Insists he would be killed back home if he did not die fighting here
- Escapes me, turns invisible
- Lerritan approaches
- Knocks me out with two powerful blows
- One of which when escape was attempted
- I wake up to find Ifrit dead, Lerritan soon after struck down as well
- Team soon after fells the stellar brass construct
- We find a massive sconce surrounded by a ritual circle
- Ritualistic sconce covered in Pyrric writing to honor the elemental lord Ymeri
- Very old construction of brass, 200-300 years old by my estimate
- Made from high quality material plane brass, not fire plane brass
- Grist and Kali believe it to be used to open doors to plane of fire
- We make sure this cannot happen here
- Collect what we can
- Harvest the magma dragon on the way out
- Shadefrost is able to teleport us home to save time
Side note: Please send a messenger to inform Drake Biloko we teleported out, I would hate for him to think we never returned from our expedition.
