Floor 1 "Wheel": 1-2

[Carthrat]

"Then tell her," replies Sacchin, pointing at Euphie.

[Anastasia]

"Fineeee!" Flying up to Euphemia and landing on her shoulder, "Do yooooou waaaaant to heaaar the seeecreeet?"

[Corwin]

"I would be delighted to learn it."

[Anastasia]

"Well...You neeeeed to cooooooome baaaack the ootheeeer waaaay with meeee..." It hisses.

[Ebiris]

"Now see here," Flasheart begins pompously, "What's all this about? We just came here past all those nefarious traps and such, and now you want us to go back! Poppycock! Now be a good little fellow and tell us all this secret, would you?"

[Anastasia]

Shrinking back from Flasheart's wrath, the creature flies back behind Euphy! "It's trueeee! You have to cooooomee with meeee!"

[Carthrat]

"Then we go," decides Sacchin. "Lead the way."

[Anastasia]

"Seeee?!" Waving as he goes back towards t he arch and it's misty passages and crushers, "Foooolllow meee!"

[Carthrat]

Sacchin has no compunctions against leading the way back. Learning from her past errors (as well as by watching her companions), she ensures that rope is used to provide a safe climb down when it comes time to navigate the three crushers.

[Anastasia]

Okay. You guys have more or less viable solutions for the misty hallway now. There's no more heads that you run into so we'll skip along the mundane careful climbing.

Once the group returns to the original misty hallway, the flying mephit goes towards the junk-room seen before, the one ignored by the party. HE flies close to the door, "In theeeeereeee...Secret is in theeeeereeee!"

[Carthrat]

"Enemies in here?"

[Anastasia]

"Caaan beee, caaareful," The mephit warns.

[Carthrat]

Arming herself with shield and flail, Sacchin prods Flasheart into the room. "We go. You shoot enemies," she states, glancing at Euphie before stepping inside.

[Corwin]

Bolt loaded, Euphemia is more than ready to let others lead the way.

[Ebiris]

"They'll be sorry if they trifle with Lord Fllasheart!" the selfsame lord declares as he advances bravely into the junk-filled room, taking the leftmost path.
