Von Mackstein was able to climb down successfully as was Alaerin. Alaerin was able to recover the shurikens which he had placed from the wall.

Line Fusilier #5 was able to get up and rejoin it’s group. It’s torch had gone out however making the light in the space dimmer.
 
Alaerin successfully sketched the beast, The lighting situation was a bit rough in the pit, but  Alaerin could make out what looked like a sandstone floor to the pit, the drop was fairly severe without the water being there. He could also make out the edge of what looked like could be a large stone door to a tunnel which was cropped open, the ornamentation was light just a couple green gemstones gleaming in the darkness below, emitting a soft green glow which helped him see what he had in the space. He could also see a few support pillars in the space below.

He could gather that there very well might be another floor of tomb below them that would be difficult to access.

He would see more hieroglyphs in part particularly toward the top of the closest pillar that looked sort of like the same animal figures riding on what looked like a raft atop streams of what could be water, or perhaps it was a boat of some kind, the primitive art was a bit difficult to tell what was what without the appropriate appraising skills.

In the green illumination he’d also see what looked like a few primitive looking swords, some scrap armor pieces strung about the pit floor as well as bones. There was also..an odd round metallic orb, with engravings on it pinned to one of the tops of a now exposed pillar below, that was in range of AnoYi’s ability, that object, if deemed worth grabbing would be by Alaerin with his telekinetic power.


Beyond the  sizable  pit and it’s  drop the group could see that there was possibly another room beyond it further down the hallway they were in, but a large amount of rock, pillar and debris had collapsed making accessing it rather difficult even if they wanted too, between having to clear the pit and somehow having to clear a path through the ancient tomb debris.

Gutou called back “Well I suppose it matters not if you continue to risk your lives to explore! I just hope that you make it in enough pieces to take on the trials!”

Gutou then looked to AnoYi

[color=7bcdc8]“Well I guess that’s good and all! It would have been very bothersome if I got washed away in pieces.”[/color] The skeleton responded, 



while it wasn’t exactly a thank you it was an acknowledgement that AnoYi had helped him at least.

[color=7bcdc8]“Hm, well he did like to keep some creatures below, magic can certainly do wonders for diversity is what I’ve learned!”[/color] Gutou announced.

Gutou also got down to the floor level. Thankfully the area that Gutou and AnoYi were in was still illuminated dimly, and hadn’t been brought into pitch darkness.



[color=7bcdc8]“What say you AnoYi? Are you going to go crawl around in the dark with your allies  or are you going to take on the trials? I can tell you one thing, looking around where they are isn’t going to get them closer to why you said you all came here.”[/color]
