We can build a better bridge. Well, my initial idea was to build a Bloodbridge, but on further thought that seems unnecessary. Giving Ciro points in Engineering would be interesting, though. I got this far in Photoshop before my hands fell off and I had to stop:
Using this plan, we still have one ladder spare to bridge the gap somehow. I'm not sure what happens with the dangling cord there that's supposed to be attached to the conveyor belt, but that doesn't seem to affect the suspended platform.
The advantage of doing this is that if the chest opens, or falls from its place for whatever reason, then we have a nice sturdy conveyor belt bridge with which to catch it.
I'm still very suspicious about this room. Goombess's trepidations hinted that there was something very, very bad that could have happened here. What was that, and what was the purpose of the diabolical contraption that was set up here?
I half had a notion that this was something Ecco did to wilfully dispose of his Boss Key, denying the adventurers access to his Boss Room. Destroying it himself might be against the rules, but what's to stop him forcing the party's hand?
Cherish inspects the speaker to find out its inner working
+1 to Cherish generally having a muck around with anything electronic whenever we find it, so long as we have the time.
It's a shame she never picked up any technical Class Skills while working with Proxxy - then we would have a Tech Priest as a party member.
Cast Windirection on nearby party members.
-1 specifically to mass-casting this.
Cast Windirection on Ciro. Fly down.
I'm not particularly fond of this plan, but we know from experience (and
if I remember correctly!) that we can cast Winddirection in mid-air in case of an emergency.
Also, if we have a continued hankering for aerial exploration, maybe we should ask Ripriver next time if we can ride him. That OR try dangling from a cord tied to the Valkyrie after we've captured it.
