In reply to Ulo (msg # 825):

"Yes, he does. He can create as much air as he needs little bit at a time, I suspect."

"Indeed -- Creating Air within that mask, he might be able to explore for quite some time before needing to come back up.

"I can help, by Lending enough Energy that he's not fatigued when he starts."

Dne nods, and casts Purify Air.

"Do you need more energy, D'ne?  Or something brightly lit?"

In reply to Dne Utrotare (msg # 828):

The air quality immediately improves in the stairwell!

In reply to Narrator (msg # 830):

Actually, Tommy was using a normal candle. Would that have given warning of bad air? Would it now?

Grohm gave Dne a nod.  "Good job."

"Should we wait a bit?" Jendrich asks Dne. "Give you the time to recover, and see if the air spoils again?"

In reply to Tommy (msg # 831):

the normal candle would have just gone out halfway down the stairs.

In reply to Abomination (msg # 834):

Ok. So when the candle goes out, Tommy will be heading back, otherwise happy to scout ahead...

As Tommy descends, the candle flickers. The air below is quite heavy and in need of purification.

"Tommy, it looks like we need a group of three -- you with your candle and whatever else, D'ne to Purify the air as we go, and me to keep D'ne from tiring out.  I've got a light, and I can make it much brighter once we've gone down a bit.  Try to help me remember to cancel the bright one before we come back up, though.  I've also got my crossbow and staff, just in case."

In reply to Narrator (msg # 836):

"That sounds reasonable. Or else we all go together, in case we run into trouble."

OOC: And avoid splitting the party...

Dne goes along with them and casts Purify Air again.  He informs Virgilio that he won’t need recharging, so long as they stop every now and then for a five minute break.

In reply to Dne Utrotare (msg # 839):

Brunhilda follows them closely. She doesn't want to be left alone in this weird place.

when you get to the bottom of the stairs, the air is still very thick and foul to breathe, but Dne is helping tremendouisly.


The slapping creaking sounds are louder.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 841):

Should we pause to see who is with us? Dne, Virgilio, Tommy, Brunhilda...any others?

Syvanus is still following along quietly

Bratu follows. Getting split up usually ends poorly.

Rafik, Ulo and Hrunting are all with you as well as Rushagorn. No one seems to want to be left behind.

With their rear fairly safe, Grohm fell in behind with Syvanus.  He made sure to give him enough room to shoot his bow on the stairs.

although the air is heavy, the space you are moving into is vast - the ceiling is quite high and you can hear multiple sets of slapping and creaking sounds, but you can't see what it is with candle grade light.

"Ulo, I'd really like to have more light in here -- and while I could cast the brighter light on a bolt and shoot it, I don't want to antagonize whoever might be out there in the dark.

"Didn't I see you and Rafik with darkened spectacles for when you go above ground?"

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 848):

"Yes, Rush provided us with them."

She and the other trolls put on their goggles.

In reply to Grohm'Tahl (msg # 846):

So we do have everyone here. Tommy will carry his candle to see how far he can move...
