Okay. Give me a d100.

The trip back to the front of the manor is without incident. All that's ahead is the rains from here.

[Nephrite]

Since it's been a while, here's the specs on the Lyre:

The lyre is also useful with respect to building. Once a week, its strings can be strummed so as to produce chords that magically construct buildings, mines, tunnels, ditches, etc. The effect produced in 30 minutes of playing is equal to the work of 100 humans laboring for 3 days. Each hour after the first, a character playing the lyre must make a DC 18 Perform (string instruments) check. If it fails, she must stop and cannot play the lyre again for this purpose until a week has passed.


Idea will be to make a nice.. mm, basically just a giant tunnel that goes straight away from the house. Hopefully it'll be reinforced enough with stone and things that it can endure the rain for a while.

I suppose he could also go underground, but what with it being Literally The Plane of Magma that feels like a Bad Idea.

[Anastasia]

Okay. What will this tunnel be made of?

[Nephrite]

Boy, isn't that a great question. I have no idea.

Take 10 on K:A for 90 and take 10 on K:A&E for 77. What would make a material that can withstand the fire? I mean, the lyre doesn't seem to specify I can't just... pick something, so I'd do some sort of stone that can withstand extreme heat, if there is one.

[Anastasia]

You'd need something strong, plentiful and proven to endure the rains. Hmm. You need to lay your hands on something like that.

[Nephrite]

I'm afraid you lost me with that. Do you mean 'you need to find something that will work'?

[Anastasia]

As you wrestle with this question, "Could you use just a little of the stone here?" Jetina suggests, "Enough to cover us as we hurry? Or would that be too dangerous?"

[Nephrite]

"Oh... no, of course that would work." Moore says. "The stone here is already not showing any signs of being affected."

Well then, yes, just make a tunnel / covering with the stone that's right beneath them about 1200 feet long.

[Anastasia]

Gimme a K:A&E check and a d100.

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 77 (I know)

[22:42] <Nephrite> roll 1d100
[22:42] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 96 > [d100=96]

[Anastasia]

Amazingly, it all works without a single complication. You get your cover long enough to leave, teleporting back and...

Any prep before heading to the Cauldron?

[Nephrite]

No, he'll go straight away.

[Anastasia]

Okay, locking this thread then.
