Every time Brutrumukk wanders off, I'm like "Oh there he goes again" and then I suddenly realise "Oh wait, Jub's still on his shoulder, guess I'm going too!"
It's very fun xD You'd think Jub would jump off at this point, but nope.
Wait, didn't we walk through a mirror in order to get to the Feywild in the first place? If so, Brutrumukk should know better than to go walking through mirror-doors.
Yup. But in that case, you actually walked through the looking glass itself.
This mirror in question is hanging on the wall and when it opened, so did the wall. ;) So, there's a difference.
Fellwing clambers upwards to join Stargaze and Skobeloff on Brutrumukk's shoulders. The reflection smiles back at Brutrumukk and greets "Heya Handsome!"
Before Brutrumukk could actually begin his investigation of the mirror, there would be a click and the mirror swings inward to reveal a secret passage.
Stargaze comments, clearly impressed, "A secret passage! Wow, I never would have guessed! Fellwing, Brutrumukk, you two are amazing!"
Fellwing asks, "But where does it lead...?"
Before anyone else could answer her question, the people within the portraits suddenly spring out, and they start doing the conga down the hall and into the secret passage.
"Come join us for the conga! Conga conga conga!"
The party would see Brutrumukk approach the mirror, and notice that their reflections are bereft of expression and emotion. That is...until Brutrumukk smiles into the mirror. His reflection smiles back before a click can be heard and the mirror swings inward to reveal a secret passage.
During the entire conversation, the miniature version of Bavlorna kept laughing, and is still laughing as Brutrumukk placed her on his head and moved to the hall. After opening the door, Brutrumukk and the party would see the walls of the dank hallway are covered with scores of portraits depicting grumpy, sad, frightened, and angry people. The figures include humans, elves, halflings, bullywugs, and goblins, among others. The portraits are rendered in a variety of mediums, including paintings, etchings, and sketches. All are displayed in gaudy, gilded frames.
A framed oval mirror two feet wide and five feet tall hangs in the middle of one wall.
When it comes to the portraits, Brutrumukk would see them all moving and talking to each other, smiling and just having casual conversations. They all wave to Brutrumukk and greet him. A fairy somehow manages to flitter between paintings, as though there was a passage for her to navigate behind the walls, and dance with them!
In front of the mirror there is a black drake...
"Ah! Look! There's Fellwing! We found her!" Stargaze cried happily upon recognizing the black drake.
The black drake is standing in front of the mirror, clearly studying it intently. She looks over upon hearing Stargaze's voice, and she greets them, her voice much calmer than Stargaze's, "Ah, Stargaze, Skobeloff. There you are! I'm glad you're alright!"
She then turns her attention back to the mirror and she comments, "There's something odd about this mirror, but I'm not quite sure what it is..."
