MAGICVote to head up for the second floor.
"Wonder if theres anything at all down here..."(Search)
Ohohohohoho. I got something even better than wine. UPSTAIRS!
Loot loot loot loot loot loot loot loot loot loot loot. If we haven't been ambushed by then, back up the stairs and all the way up to the next floor.
Alora searches for hidden doors before heading back upstairs
Pierre and Zathyran head upstairs while Malleus, Alora, and Claire spread out to search. (M: 5+1-1Second Search. A: 8-1. C: 4-1.) Malleus finds some Crystal Chalice wine of his own, while Alora finds that hidden door she's looking for! (2) It's locked, and something smells rotten behind it... since no one in the party is capable of opening the door (no Thief characters with a level 2 evo
) she leave it alone. Claire pokes through the various racks and shelves but finds nothing worth burdening herself with and sighs. Before the three can leave, they find themselves separated from their allies upstairs by a swirling, ghostlike wall in front of the stairs! Behind them, two pentagrams open and demonic figures can be seen.... (Next round, Malleus, Alora, and Claire will have to fight a pair of Thunder Demons.)
Upstairs and unaware that they're on their own, Zathyran and Pierre head to the second floor. Ahead of them is an orb, and boxing them in on three sides is a mirrored wall. Zathyran reached out and touched the orb, causing it to light up in response to his magic. The mirror in front of them faded away, revealing that ahead of them was a t-shaped intersection. It looked like they would have to work their way through a minor maze. To make matters worse, the way behind them was not closed by the mirror wall...

Rip the Head off the Statue
Recover from last attack; attack Alexander
(-2 MP. 3 vs 1+4) Greenmoore immediately attempted to block up the holes in the wall through his earth magic... but every time a hole was blocked, the hands would just tear through it! There was no stopping them as they went for the giant and the nobleman once more! (F: 5+3-1 vs 8+5. B: 5+3 vs 5; Minor Failure) Frenz swept the hands away with a few quick flicks of his whip, and Biernat kicked the hands aside. For now they were holding their own, but for how long? These things were indestructible! (F: 5.) Frenz looked around and saw there was another door. It too was closed, but the lack of a handle or keyhole suggested that it was linked to something in the room. Find and manipulate that object, and the door would open. (B: 8+2) Biernat moved to twist the statue's head and accidentally twisted it so hard it broke right the hell off. He stared at it for a moment. (Biernat gets: Marble Head! it might be worth something.) Twisting the statue's head didn't seem to do anything noticeable; the answer had to be somewhere else.
The hands in the other room, meanwhile, had gathered themselves after being flung by the werewolf and were charging him! (1+3 vs 8-1) Growling, Alexander avoided them by leaping onto the statue and tearing at its head. (4) It twisted slightly, but much like Biernat had discovered, nothing much happened from twisting it. Tariq, meanwhile, decided to give those hands something else to think about and rolled a grenade at them. (-1 MP. 8+2 vs 7+4) Two of the hands caught the grenade and tossed it against the far wall, where it exploded harmlessly.
