[Kadzar]

Fine then. Bright blue it is, then.

You join the GNHS and Urist in the crawlway behind the bright blue sphere. Not only is it getting crowded in here, but nobody has brought a light.

I will follow behind them with my torch.

[Doomblade187]

Kadzar III will bring us luck! I'll go first, him second in line. I think the family deserves to avoid another loss for a bit.

[Vorthon]

And I'll stay in the back. Because squishy wizard is squishy.

[Solifuge]

I'll shout "Hello?" as loudly as I can, to see if anyone can here me while I'm inside this orb tunnel. This tunnel maze might just be a trick on my mind... or I could actually be lost way down in somewhere. In either case, I probably should've left a spool of rope or something as I went in here.

For now, I'll try to press on, and take a gander around the abrupt end of the tunnel to see if I can keep going, or can find anything else of interest down here. If there's a door or fake wall or something I'll venture on, and if I don't find anything I'll turn back. In either case, I'll try to score a handaxe mark into the right-hand wall of the tunnel every 30 paces or so, to mark where I've been.

[Zako]

Cautiously feel around what's behind the red sphere for traps and the like, slowly moving forwards to see what's behind it as I clear it of traps.

[Hanslanda]

Scurry away from the bronze sphere, find a corner, and petulantly shout, "Medic!"

[killerhellhound]

go back and heal Hans while telling him this is why you souldn't go alone

Thank Urist profusely.

[killerhellhound]

nearly dying is a big part of the job and FUN!!!

[USEC_OFFICER]

Fine then. Bright blue it is, then.

You join the GNHS and Urist in the crawlway behind the bright blue sphere. Not only is it getting crowded in here, but nobody has brought a light.

I will follow behind them with my torch.

Everybody in the crawlway awkwardly shuffles around as Urist goes to heal Hans and Kadzar joins the group.

Kadzar III will bring us luck! I'll go first, him second in line. I think the family deserves to avoid another loss for a bit.

And I'll stay in the back. Because squishy wizard is squishy.

Having finalized the marching order, the party crawls further down the tunnel. Reaching the end, the GNHS stick his head into the room.

Dust covers the remains of a wizard’s storeroom like snow. Fallen shelves, smashed crockery, glass shards from dozens of smashed potion vials, and corroded
alchemical tools litter the floor. However, in the northwest corner of the room, something gray and shriveled sloshes within a grimy glass canister.

The room is twenty feet by twenty, and smells like somebody had a party in a chemical factory. Kadzar's torch also appears to be burning with a blue tinge.

I'll shout "Hello?" as loudly as I can, to see if anyone can here me while I'm inside this orb tunnel. This tunnel maze might just be a trick on my mind... or I could actually be lost way down in somewhere. In either case, I probably should've left a spool of rope or something as I went in here.

For now, I'll try to press on, and take a gander around the abrupt end of the tunnel to see if I can keep going, or can find anything else of interest down here. If there's a door or fake wall or something I'll venture on, and if I don't find anything I'll turn back. In either case, I'll try to score a handaxe mark into the right-hand wall of the tunnel every 30 paces or so, to mark where I've been.

Your cries reverberate throughout the tunnel, but nobody in the hallway of spheres hears you. Unless you can get lost on a single pathway the tunnel isn't much of a maze, but you mark the passageway anyways, in case Acererak is up to his old tricks again.

[15] Wait a second, isn't there a secret door here? Why yes, there is! Excited, you quickly open it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Chapel accoutrements fill this chamber, including great wooden pews on either side of a central mosaic path that leads toward an altar on the far side of the room, which is separated from the pews by a wooden railing. Scenes of everyday life are painted on the walls, but all the people are portrayed with rotting flesh, skeletal hands, and worm-ridden orifices. Yet depicted amidst these disturbing portraits are various symbols of readily recognized benevolent deities.

Apparently the chapel has a bit of a darkness spell on it, because you're torch can't illuminate the inner sanctum of the chapel. It does, however, illuminate the frescos on the walls quite nicely, including some unexpected holy symbols of some generic gods.

Cautiously feel around what's behind the red sphere for traps and the like, slowly moving forwards to see what's behind it as I clear it of traps.

[19 + 5] Detecting no traps behind the red sphere, you crawl into it. Cursing at your lack of foresight and illumination, you blindly stumble forward until impacting against a stone wall about forty feet in. Flailing around with you ten-foot pole, you determine that this must be the end of the line.

Scurry away from the bronze sphere, find a corner, and petulantly shout, "Medic!"

go back and heal Hans while telling him this is why you souldn't go alone

Urist, hearing your calls, rushes forward and casts a healing spell.

[15] You feel much refreshed, and even that odd twang in your leg seems to be gone.

Thank Urist profusely.

You thank Urist profusely, and even suffer wordless through his monologue about not going off alone.

Naj... Yeah, I got nothing. Naj just kinda wanders over to the fresco'd entrance to the tomb of horrors, just like that. He probably wants to nick the furniture or something.

DAMMIT START MAKING CORPSES ALREADY!
Also I hope the GM rolls the Singalong for wild magic sometime.

The Hallway of spheres is more of a... hallway than a trapped-riddled corridor. It does, however, lead to traps...

[Vorthon]

I cautiously inspect the canister, wand at the ready in case whatever is in it is hostile.

[Solifuge]

I put on the Goggles of Night, and see if I can penetrate the magical darkness effect with them.

[TaiwaneseRedneck]

Join Solifuge in the chapel and put some LONG LIGHT on that isht
