A world's support

Ahead is the hallway. At the end is another door - peeking through, Tryll can see it leads to a stairway going up. However...

"The sand trail stops before the next door," Miranda says, stopping about 2/3rds of the way there.

[Yuthirin]

Tryll investigates!

[Anastasia]

How so?

[Yuthirin]

Yanno, checking for hidden passages, search checks, phasing through walls, manifesting Trace Teleport, etc.

[Anastasia]

Cool, just needed the details.

Checking about, there's a secret passage on the interior wall, leading to a stairway going down.

[Yuthirin]

'Secret passage.' Tryll says, disintegrating the false wall.

[Anastasia]

d20, obligatory.

A scowl from Sixtus, "That's an unauthorized building modification," he says, "They're guilty of another crime!"

'Alas, criminals gonna criminal.'

[Anastasia]

Sure enough, there's a stairway behind the wall.

"Criminals," Kaja snorts, "Crime does lead to foolishness. After all, most sins relate back to theft."

"That's..." Miranda says, "Something a gold dragon would say," she finally settles on.

[Yuthirin]

"Dragons! We should talk to Baleruk one of these days, see if he wants in on this." Calleigh says as she flies down the passage.

Moore follows along. "This is all... I don't know. This seems way too elaborate."

[Anastasia]

"I tell you, they're wasting our time," Kaja growls as you go down the stairs.

Miranda leads you along, which leads down and down. A basement where...there's nothing. A dead end. Just a small storage room, not a thing in it.

[Nephrite]

"Huh." Moore says as he glances around.

[Anastasia]

"It ends here," Miranda says, "Anything? Tryll?"
