((So we've exhausted the southern routes and they end in a pointless hole?

If so, then yes, definitely the door we passed to go through this one. I just thought there was maybe more south to explore.))

Meanwhile, Lady Foxglove recovers her wits, if still lacking a connection to reality.

She passes the time by telling demon jokes that her demon boyfriend was quite fond of. It's clear she's thinking of him.

....
"So, an Angel and a Demon are sitting down to dinner..." She begins.

*10 minutes later*

"...Transubstantiation?" the demon says. The Angel replies smugly "No-Consubstantiation!"

She looks to her audience for a much awaited reaction to her punchline.

((Er, not so much a pointless hole as a totally deliberate trapped dead-end! Don't dungeons have them a lot? Who would put options for them if they didn't?!?! Will try to get on with an update :) ))

A bit later...

Lady Foxglove was valiantly fighting boredom, stabbing tiny rats with her sword for small amounts of experience points.

"...Remember when we were fighting the Dragons! That was exciting, right?

...There's another one! Not a Dragon..."

Even longer after that, apparently...

"Well! How about I entertain you all with a story of a terrifying beast!

...well, I will anyway!"

Roll to Dungeon Quest - Chapter 1.115

Turn One Hundred and FIFTEEN!!

The Temple of Sef...

Mumbling in some kind of demented trance, Lady Foxglove suddenly casts Revive GM! Filled with shame and self-loathing, the narrator realises, in a flash, that the only way he can possibly cast off the burden of GM self-loathing and despondency is by setting aside work, leaving alone the domination of the world and in particular the twin evils of Castile and Austria, oh, and bloody Portugal, ignoring blood bowl, no longer failing to complete his megaproject AND TO FINALLY UPDATE.

Rising from his chair, pure and naked and unburdened as the day he was born, he towers above the keyboard, and types with the frenzy typically associated with long haired keyboard players!

The plot comes flooding back to him!

He locates the map!

He remembers the joy he felt upon deciding that the next room holds a zombie hippopotamus!

Awesome!

It seems, to him, almost certain: there will only be a short set of violence between the brave adventurers and the actual point of the adventure (thus far). There was much rejoicing!

Then he thought, just what the hell would a zombie hippopotamus be doing there?!?

And then he remembered!

Sweet!

It is roughly then that Sylvanna stops riding in circles on Eric the Coinspider – for just long enough to shout Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! and propose that:

Onwards! Whichever way onwards is without backtracking!

Whilst Sylvanna Wheeeeeeeeees around the room, her… colleagues, Whiz and Bukkar catch up with the group. She climbs down from her spider, walks over to the door in the north east, and pushes it open.

The adventurers peer in, and see a room open up before them, which is lit by a large chandelier hanging in the middle of the ceiling, casting shadows in the corners of the room but illuminating it well enough to show the only apparent features: a door to the far left, a painting on the right wall, and a softly glowing circle on the floor just offset from the centre.

The room is extremely silent.

((Clearly the zombie hippopotamus is hiding on the ceiling.))

"SHIIIIIINYYYYYYYYY!" Sylvanna shouted in wonder, dashing towards the blue circle.

Examine shiny object! Terrain feature! Whatever!

Rushing in like a fool excitable young lady faced with mysterious objects, Sylvanna stops just short of the softly glowing blue circle and gazes at it intently. It’s really quite pretty, she concludes!

"Hm."

Using my not entirely nonexistent knowledge of stuff, judge from afar if something sinister lurks in this room - for how could it not, really?

If there doesn't seem to be anything sinister... well, check for traps!

Judging from afar, just inside the doorway, Gervedder concludes that yes! There is definitely something... sinister lurking in this room. But where?! Who!? Or even what?!

"I hope it is not Sylvana's left hand."

Identify this sinister presence. What can I sense it with? What organ or organs am I using to determine its existence?

"Neat!" Sylvanna finally said, after several long moments of what looked like intense, thoughtful inspection.

Examine the chandelier. What's it lit by?

((Every GM's favorite question.

Let's start with standing under it and looking up, possibly on tippy-toes.))
