Sister Aliana waited nearby if...or rather when...the dynamic duo hurt themselves in their excitement.

"Slowly!" Myarra tells Twiggy.  "Yanking levers won't do any good if you don't know what they did.  One lever at a time and then wait to see what happened.

And for the love of Bast, try not to break anything!

I can not believe I'm being the voice of reason here."

Twiggy has a stupid gleeful grin looking at Myarra as he pulls the first lever.

The party has attracted several of the farmers who look on at the strange contraption as legs move, shutters open and close, the lights go on and off, the door hatch closes and opens etc...it only takes the party about 10 minutes to figure out how the crab works.

"Because the two people who can't figure out how to even open the device are obviously going to be the best to figure out how to make the device work..." Amara rolled her eyes as Myarra and Twiggy rushed into the contraption.

Twiggy calms down as he pulls each lever and sees what they do. Then he hollers out "Anyone have any chalk to write what each lever does?"

Twiggy takes the chalk and as he pulls each lever writes on the metal what is does. As soon as he finds out how to move it he is giddy again "Get in Myarra, we are going to try this out. Let's go cut down some trees."

Kali was all smiles while Twiggy and Myarra had their fun, but once Twiggy mentioned cutting down trees, she had a serious look and sharp tone in her voice. "You cut down trees just to test your toy Twiggy, and so help the gods, you will wish for Raieylan to kill you...because what i will do will be far more slow and painful."  She points at the halfling.

"Don't make me summon lightning and light you up in that metal box!"

Amara reaches over and flips the switch to have the contraption close again with the two inside. Then she wanders off.

Byron laughs heartily at Kali's comments to Twiggy.

I'm sure they will be in for quite a shock if that thing gets hit by lightning.

"Let's not piss off the entire druid community on our first try," Myarra suggests with a laugh.  "But we should definitely take it for a quick spin around the tower at least.  Open the portholes so we can see. Would you prefer to run the move lever, or the steer lever?  Let's see how fast it goes."

Twiggy chuckles "The turn lever of course, how fast do you think Byron can run in that armor? Just one little pinch wont hurt him, much."

Re: 1372: The Year of Wild Magic: Day 213-226

OK, we need to wrap this up, folks. We have to discuss what our plans are going to be next. We also need to meet up with Roenthelm, unless he left the group? You mentioned that he was doing something with this ghost? Did he mention when he was going to be back? We need to look for treasure to fill our coffers so we can plan on fighting an undead dragon.

Re: 1372: The Year of Wild Magic: Day 213-226

"That's an interesting point," Myarra says, regretfully climbing back out of the magnificent artifact.

"It's bit slow, but not any slower than your average smaller-than-average-legged individual.

It can look pretty intimidating, but if we don't extend the claws, it would mostly just look weird rather than threatening.

The claws look sharp, but I'm still pretty sure I'm more dangerous that it is, so we'd need to figure how who pilot it, other than Twiggy.  Because while one person can run it, it really needs two to be at all effective.

It's pretty tough, but I don't know how we'd repair it if someone did manage to damage it.

We could carry quite a bit of stuff in it, but if we need to travel through forest, it's not going to be coming with us.

As much as I love the thing, I'm thinking it would be best to park it here for now and we can think how best to use it while we go take care of business.

For example, I'd like to take it into the river around the Mariasha and see if any thing from the ship got dumped before or during the crash.

But I can't deny that I'd love to take it with us."

Well, that could be an option for the list of areas to search for treasure. We're not taking it to the mines, though. A Blue Dragon's breath is lightning and that mechanical crab would be destroyed.

"I have magic that cen help with underwater exploration,  but in can definitely see where that crab is immensely useful for that.  How much air will it hold?"

Twiggy frowns at Myarra "There you go with that logic again, but you all are right. We can go meet Roen, I am sure the treasure hunters have some work for adventurers." Twiggy rubs the crab fondly and hops down.

Unknown. It will have to be tested.
