Temporal pixies

[Anastasia]

When you reach it, you find you can pass into the 'sun' as if it wasn't solid at all. Ahead, tucked into it, is a stairway indeed. It goes up, onward and further ahead.

Perception.

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 97.

[Anastasia]

There's ripples here, but very faint. Not nearly so dangerous and unstable as previous passages.

[Nephrite]

"Let's give it a shot. Perhaps this effect comes from where these lead?" Moore says, proceeding up the stairs!

[Anastasia]

Up the stairs, further in. The ice begins to fade but it's still cold - and from above, you see snowflakes starting to spill down.

[Nephrite]

"Curiouser and curiouser." Moore says as he proceeds along.

Will keep an eye out for anything in the snow, 97 on Perception with Blindsight, Arcane Sight and Afina's Perfect Vision for all-around vision and seeing invisible stuff.

[Anastasia]

You step out into a blizzard. The stairs end as you see frozen wasteland in all directions, heavy heaps of snow over everything. Far ahead you can glimpse a cabin, half buried in snow. To the left of the party a sinkhole can be seen, plunging into the ground.

[Nephrite]

"Anything that's endured this place as long as this has been here is worth investigation." Moore says as he starts to proceed towards it.

Is there anything that would seem to prevent teleportation here, as an aside? If they can just teleport in that direction then they'd do so to save time.

[Anastasia]

You can tell the entire place is a dimensional mess. Teleportation is exceptionally unwise.

[Nephrite]

Then onward we go through the Blizzard!

I think we should still have Freedom of Movement from earlier so we shouldn't get slowed down at all.

[Anastasia]

Since you weren't clear, you mean going towards the cabin, right?

[Nephrite]

Yes.

[Anastasia]

As you approach the cabin, you don't see anything of note - until you glance up. It's almost invisible, but the same creature as before hides on the roof, ready to pounce.

You're fortunate your vision is so sharp.

[Nephrite]

Above us. This he says to his allies.


If you challenge us again, you won't survive. This he says to the creature, aware it will likely still come at them again.

[Anastasia]

This time give me Intimidate.
