Ahead lies...?

[Anastasia]

You fly for a little while before you find such a place. A large gap in the steam, a ragged, bleeding edge of the conflagrations all about. It's a mess, but it's a stretch of solid ground that isn't immediately hostile.

[Nephrite]

"Let's see if there's anything interesting down there." Moore says as he starts to head in that direction!

Assuming they can make it through without an interruption, he will look around below the steam and see what he can see!

Note to self, Moore, develop a spell that lets you easily see through things like mist and fog and the like...

[Anastasia]

It's rugged, uneven ground. Volcanic gasses erupt from cracks in the ground, with various gaps and caverns leading within the newborn rock dotted all about. Regular, thick and sharp-looking rills of black run, of volcanic glass that moves like water, a thousand sharp blades in every glimpse of those rivers.

[Nephrite]

"Let's proceed this way for now. Be on the look out for caverns or the like." Moore says as he proceeds to fly along, trying to rise up enough to avoid the vents.

[Anastasia]

Kaja gestures, "I can see several already," he points out, "Do you have anything more specific?"

Cresiel flies down a bit and peers down, "At least a few of them seem to end swiftly, or have collapsed internally."

[Nephrite]

"Something deeper." Moore says. "We need to find something at least... stable on the glance."

[Anastasia]

"Over here," Xandra calls, flying over, "This one."

As Kaja takes to the air and follows, Cresiel adds, "Be careful of the water that is not water," he says, "I fear it will cut you as sharply as a blade."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods as he flies over. "Let's see what we can learn if the deeper side of this place."

[Anastasia]

It's a fairly sharp and downward slope. It doesn't quite require flight, but it's close. It's also quite dark inside - you'll need darkvision or to provide your own light.

Considering your party, that part isn't the remotest problem, at least.

[Nephrite]

I think True Seeing / Afinas Perfect Vision do solve that!

Moore heads in and down!

[Anastasia]

As you go, your sharp eyes let you notice it immediately. You can see beading of the strange, liquid volcanic glass on the ceiling, droplets ready to fall like little daggers.

[Nephrite]

He gestures above to the others, doing his best not to disturb it, but aware they may have to avoid what they can and deal with what they can't!

[Anastasia]

As you walk Jetina looks up, "Well, I'm here, so it can only do so much harm."

"Wrong attitude," Kaja says, "You being a walking clinic of clerics doesn't mean I want to get hurt." Hurrying ahead, "Let's just hurry."

"Before we have to cross a waterfall of it," Cresiel agrees, getting Kaja to grimace.

[Nephrite]

Moore smiles and continues along, eye out for anything else!

[Anastasia]

The heat is tremendous, the air foul. Yet you continue on in spite of it, untouched by it all. You fly down a time until it opens out into a very large cavern. Here several streams of volcanic glass flow, criss-crossing the ground. Amid it all you notice a burnt skeleton sits - that of some large creature, surely a dozen feet tall and human in general shape - except for the huge tusks.
