The Manse Macabre (concluded)

[mikemacdee]

Hurgar, turn 29 (cont'd):



In the course of his search Hurgar finds no traps, and yet...

Hang on, is that....? It IS! While searching the north bookcase, Hurgar discovers a lever cleverly disguised as an ordinary book!

[Big Bene]

Clever lever!

Mumble mumble... hey, dat looks lika really good book!
With many pages of fine, thin paper! With a book like dat I'll start a campfire in pouring rain!
Hey, what's up? Won't come off de shelf... my, my, it's a lever!
Come 'ere, guys, I've found sum mechabolism!

EOT

[Sjeng]

Eddy crawls out of the pit, and heads back...

Sjeng rolled 2 6-sided dice:

I walk in the direction of the candelabra. I hope the elf can heal me... Stupid cape... mumble...


Bravely bold Sir Eddy,
Rode forth from Camelot!
He was not afraid to die,
Oh, Brave Sir Eddy!
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Eddy!

Eddy -cough- Wizzard, turn 29:

Eddy hobbles back to the fireplace, weakly calling for his elven friend.

[The Road Warrior]

Time to find out what this pressure plate does then....

Caranthir Movement:

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Caranthir moves on to the pressure plate, pauses to see what happens and then steps off again.

If nothing changes inside the room I'm in I will move towards the library

[mikemacdee]

Caranthir, turn 29:

The moment Caranthir steps onto the plate, stones start grinding to the north.



The secret corridor opens at the east end!

(Where to, elf?)

[The Road Warrior]

(Where to, elf?)

To the Library to join up with the rest of the group.

I'm expecting to teleport to the entrance again as soon as I try to step out of this room. Either way I should have enough movement to get to the room Eddy and Kili are in.

[mikemacdee]

Caranthir, turn 29 (cont'd):

Caranthir steps out of the display room and ZAP finds himself back in the courtyard!



He runs to join his comrades, getting as far as the living room entrance. He takes one look at Eddy Wizzard's battered state and rolls his eyes, remembering the mishap in the courtyard when they first arrived.

[Daedalus]

Kili moves into the library as backup. (Must resist impulse to search for treasure right before Zargon's turn...)

Movement:

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:

"Let's pull together some more before we pull the secret lever. I'll guard one of ya while ya search for treasure."

[mikemacdee]

Kili, turn 29:

Kili joins Hurgar in the library to look at the secret lever he spoke so excitedly about.
