Hidden truths

[Nephrite]

"Any ideas how to tell who sent it or why?" Moore asks as he proceeds to go to follow it.

[Anastasia]

"It's magic immune," Sylvie focuses on it, "Strong too. My divinations just slid off it. Xandra?"

"...nothing. It's both apathetic to us and powerful. Could it be something the Guardian left behind?" Xandra asks as you keep pace behind it. "I can think of little that would resist divinations from us so lightly."

"Could be," Sylvie speculates as Kaja stalks it from behind, ready to strike at a moment's notice. "Or the work of who knows what monster's interested in this place now. There could be any number of demon lords, daemons or who knows what deities who sent a powerful servant here."

[Nephrite]

"Well, we'll see where it goes." Moore says. "I'm surprised it didn't interact with us, though."

[Anastasia]

"It makes as much sense as anything in this place," Kaja growls, "We all remember our first trip here."

[Nephrite]

"Yeah, but those -did- interact with us." Moore says.

He will trail after the golem and see how far it goes!

[Anastasia]

It goes to the top of the next set of stairs, then stops. It turns around and stands there, blocking the way forward.

[Nephrite]

"...Hello?" Moore calls out again. "What is your purpose here?"

[Anastasia]

There is no answer.

"You there?" Sylvie goes up and waves a hand in front of it. Still nothing.

Kaja pokes it with Gem. Not even a reaction.

[Nephrite]

"We'd like to pass, please." Moore says with a shrug to the others.

[Anastasia]

No reaction.

[Nephrite]

"Well, may as well chance it..." He says as he goes to fly up and over.

[Anastasia]

The golem's hand goes up to stop you. Then it drops and begins to walk back the way it came.

[Nephrite]

"...I'm so confused right now." Moore says. "...Maybe it only stops actual prisoners?"

[Anastasia]

"We capture it if we can safely," Sylvie says decisively.

Xandra glances over at her, "You think it could be something the Guardian made?"

"Possibly, and it might have powers nothing else has available," Sylvie decides, "Just in case that longshot comes home."

[Nephrite]

"I wonder if we can even harm it." Moore says. "Do you want to investigate it more now, or stick with our original plan and come back to it?"
