Assist in carrying it to the entrance when necessary. Best put the fitness to good use.

Edited because I failed reading again.

((Yes. :P

Also, we're not dismantling it YET. We're carrying to the entrance-two people need to do this, I am one-then dismantling it, passing it up piece by piece up the ladder, and reassembling it above ground.))

Wait so you guys plan to carry this armoire back to town? If so, then you'll need 4 hands free the whole way. Plan accordingly.

As an aside, this is just the sort of hilarity I was hoping for when I designed this game. A bunch of adventurers hauling furniture across miles and miles, like some sort of moving company. Awesome.

EDIT: Also, if I haven't mentioned (and I probably haven't since it wasn't relevant so far) it, you can hire/buy mules/horses/carts etc. in town to haul stuff for you. Be warned, as such things are usually ripe targets for less civilized people, but are useful nonetheless (and expensive).

Finally, I'm just waiting for the rest of the inventories, otherwise I have to assume only Arvin is carrying anything (and Astra, who's carrying the other part of the armoire).

((Wait, maybe I missed it, but do we need a guide to get out of the magic valley place? If so, is the guide supposed to be waiting? If so-so, does time pass at the same speed down here as it does on the surface?

((It'll probably look like a big bundle of sticks, but yeah. It's the only thing worth anything in this place, unless spider glans pan out and/or the fountain goo turns out to be useful.))

That would be pretty awesome but no. You need a guide to find the Valley, but not one to get out of it. You can just starting walking straight in any direction and you'll be in familiar roads before long. Time passes normally while in the tomb, unless you go deeper (as in, into the Earth).

Grab some of the instruments and hook them on my belt if possible.

The instruments are 3 slots each, so unfortunately you cannot.

((Okay, so we're doing all these things. Let's get a-going.))

Action: Also, we're stopping to let Arvin check the pond scum first.

Does this mean you're using a check (Doctor)? Otherwise no new information.

And at this point, you've moved more or less everything you can carry, outside, and have "rebuilt" the armoire. It is still dark outside, and will be so for a few more hours. Also you guys keep forgetting about Lilly, she cannot move due to being exhausted so she will either have to be carried or you guys will have to camp for a bit. I'll assume you do this outside, so as to conserve fuel (a turn will still pass however), Lilly will also have to borrow someone's arm so make sure you account for that.

Also, any leftover rations will rot and have to be discarded when you get back to town. So there is no point in hoarding it. The other stuff will remain (torches, oil, etc)

And finally, the painting room still hasn't changed (though you've flipped the painting a few times as you've been walking back and forth through the tomb) so you can still take a crack at getting the loot inside pillar (you might not be able to carry it all though).

I'll need everyone to show me their inventories so I know what everyone is carrying back to town. And I forgot to mention, but the armoire itself can hold 5 slots and each pot can hold 1.

Welcome aboard!

Your character looks good, one thing though - you've shorted yourself 1 RP, your inventory only comes to 9 RP; give yourself an extra RP and you'll be good to go. I'll add you to the list of people waiting in town, then the party can be formally formed when Arvin gets back.

Sure, you can leave her there as long as you like. Then when you're ready to adventure again, there she'll be.
