Inspect the light runes in the ceiling and try to memorize the form.

"I feel this isn't just any old sewer, is it?"

[sjm9876]

 'Dwarves have lived here for as long as I can remember. Since back when they were even shorter than they are now.' Gunnar wheezes. He clamps his hand over his throat, and the wheezing eases slightly.
 'These mountains are riddled with tunnels. Down even to the coast.'

Anthony nods and grabs his healers bag in one hand.

[Varee]

Fia follows Anthony to help with Gunnar. She holds the water symbol to the wound and start praying softly.


The group actually have two healers.

[GiglameshDespair]

Ketsuki made a mental note - Gunnar was either very old or a liar, and she didn't think he was lying.

[sjm9876]

 Gunnar starts to walk back down the passage with Anthony, but stops when he sees Fia following.
 ’No. No prayer. No magic.’ He starts coughing again, and spots of red appear on the passage’s walls. He speaks once more before he continues walking.
 ’There should be a firestone in my bag. Feel free to settle down.’

 (13+2+4) Chance meanwhile examines the light runes. Whilst the light they emit makes them even harder to read than they usually are, she still manages to glean some  sense of the shape - enough to at least make an educated guess as to the rune.
((If you want to use the rune, just say.))

Spoiler: Firestone (click to show/hide)

A firestone is a common item, and takes the shape of a small pebble engraved with a few runes. When activated (usually by placing it on the ground and blowing on it), it gives off the light and heat of the fire, though not to such a degree that it can burn - they cannot be used for cooking. Some firestones can be deactivated and reused.

Sit down and rest. Listen for any sounds in any direction, especially up.

[Varee]

Fia steps away and join chance at looking at runes.

[kj1225]

Anthony nods and sets down his bag before setting up the area to be more comfortable, finally he begins examining Gunnar.

[GiglameshDespair]

Ketsuki joined the others in looking at the runes, using the oppotunity to make a more circumspect inspection of Gunnar. All armour had distingushing marks - did his have any of a particular time period or place?

[Harry Baldman]

((Hm. I don't think I can rightly follow this, unfortunately. Feel free to drop me.))

[sjm9876]

 (7+2,9+2) Neither Fia nor Ketsuki has any luck with the runes, as the obscuring light and their inherent complexities hide their features. the hall in which they camp remains silent but for a single crash that echoes from far in the distance up the main road, from the righthand side of the room.
 Gunnar and Anthony go down the side passage, passing out of sight of the fire, as Ketsuki muses on the great being himself. Searching her memories for similarities, the only common ground she can see is with antique human armour - a set she once saw in the service of a Kilaani noble, which he claimed belonged to one of the seven warriors who first founded Kilaana. However, the similarities are only in passing, and far from certain. The metal of origin is unlike anything she has seen before - whilst blackening iron was common, Gunnar’s armour lacked the dullness associated with such practices.

((@HB, if you want to drop out, that’s fine. though the pace will probably drop back a bit once i’ve gotten over the guilt of the hiatus
@ Everyone but KJ, you have a few rounds to roleplay/do whatever else you want.))

((Oh? Well.... you abandoned us. You monster. _{guiltguiltguiltguilt} ))

((I'm dropping out more because I want to downsize the number of games I'm playing in, rather than an inability to keep up with the pace. Anyway, sorry about that, and keep up the good work!))
