Off to the see the (dragon) wizard! (Jaela)

[Anastasia]

"Yes," Strength of Light says, "You're free to leave the valley anytime, but doing so is construed as conceding and admitting your failure."

[Corwin]

"Understood."

Let's do this thing! Also, since Mirima and I left Aurora on our own, I'm reminding that we're using the Golden Bracers at Rank 10 (unless the Kras challenge was of CR35 or higher).

[Anastasia]

Cool, give me a summary of the boosts?

[Corwin]

You're lead outside of Sylica, then up a bit and to a cliff. Here Strength of Light takes out a metal hoop and places it in the air. It expands into a portal, "This will take you there. There's watchers who keep an eye on the perimeter, they'll make contact when you leave and get you back here, if you can't manage it yourself."

"Got it." Jaela takes Mirima's hand, and flies through the portal!

[Anastasia]

It's hot and humid. You can feel moist sweat beginning all over your body, joined by the buzz of insects and various animal noises.

You stand in a thick and trackless jungle, greenery all around you.

[Corwin]

"What do you think?" Jaela asks, heading for a path she can make in the greenery. "Wing it or use magic to find a ruin?"

Sign and Foresight cast, GMW and Keen Edge on Gae Trocaire (from bracers). Survival 10 for 27 to find an animal path leading in we could follow.

[Anastasia]

Mirima sniffs the air and frowns, "It's like the worst day of summer here. The heat is one thing, the wetness is another. Bothersome. I say we wing it, the point of this is proving ourselves."

There's a pause as you struggle to find a path. There's no one immediately nearby, but your woodsland lore tells you there should be one fairly soon. Animal paths are a thing. You'll just have to bull through and hack through to find one.

[Corwin]

Jaela relies on her augmented gauntlets and the blades in her boots to carve their path through nature!

[Anastasia]

That's a dagger+2 or so and what's your gauntlet?

[Corwin]

Gauntlets of Ghost Fighting +5

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d100
<Serith> Kokokokokokoko roll for Serith < 90 > [d100=90]
> roll 1d100 subtable times
<Serith> Kokokokokokoko roll for Serith < 47 > [d100=47]

You barely get a few feet in before your blindsight notices ground-based vines are moving, looping around you and going behind you to flank.

[Corwin]

"Duck," Jaela tells Mirima, before clearing a circle around them with her close-range weapons! Then, with enough of a space to move, Gae Trocaire goes to work on reducing the vines all around them in a greater range still.

[Anastasia]

This'll require an attack roll, they're creatures. Make one real quick.
