Conlaoch Askr, God of chaos and The burning Hellstone!

[escaped lurker]

It is obviously "    " ! - the unspoken one he is sometimes called, but never by his followers. They call him by his true name. The silent ones are thus his most favored servants, as they chant his name at almost all times...

[Aseaheru]

I like that.

[Knight Otu]

Of course, the name will never leave the tip of your tongue, for it is " ", and you would never blaspheme by using an epithet!

...

Say, is there something shining amidst that rubble in the corner?

Shiny you say?!
You should know the drill by know. Go-get-it.

Allright, allright. I did say only once.

Inspect it and the way carefully.
Now there really is no way that this could go wrong.

[Aseaheru]

and then go to the north door.

[Knight Otu]

You carefully poke through the rubble, finding another of those golden figurines, this one of a whale, removably mounted on a disk with 12 corners, as well as 3 silver coins. Other than that, there's nothing interesting in the rubble that you can find. So, you head north.



There is something about this room. You are not certain what. Is it the two humanoid figures surrounded by two floating maws each? The wicked-looking scythes flanking that chest by the eastern wall? Or something else entirely? You are uncertain...

Out we go?

[hops]

I have a feeling those figurines have some significance.
Quick! to the theorycraftingmobile!

Also -1 to leaving right away. Try inching towards the chest, see if the figures are animate, and hostile. If they attack, retreat near the door and try to fight them, escaping if they're too strong.

EDIT: Also stab the chest before opening it, just in case it's a Mimic.

[Knight Otu]

You  edge along the wall as the figures notice you and they begin to chant "We devour for Dhosh. We feed for Dhosh".



That's pretty hostile, you imagine, so you move back to the door. A yellow glow around the monsters appears - or maybe it was already there and just intensified - and the beasts follow with greater speed than before... and stop short.



That is when two of the floating maws shoot away from their hosts and towards you...
<13+0 vs 10+0> <4 damage>
<8+0 vs 14+0>

One you can dodge, but the second viciously bites you in the arm. Both then fade away.

Exit through the door, get 2 spaces west in the previous room, be ready to charge.
Always works in rougelikes. As far as I am concerned, that is.
