To defeat a daemon (Jaela, Afina)

[Anastasia]

The door disintegrates and...

Within is a vast room, larger than the tower floor. Here is luxury of every kind - the floors are gold, the walls marble and diamond-studded. Luxurious silks drape ornate chairs and tables, while decanters and glasses of cut crystal reside on within a liquor cabinet. Art of all kinds is here, as well as several bookshelves.

"Well then, looks like we're not walking away with just a barren demiplane after all," Afina says, checking for traps as she flutters in to look around.

Taking 10 for 55 on search

Bubbles takes to the air, whistling, "Sugar, I think I see more golems in your future."

No traps that Afina can find.

[Ebiris]

"Can never have enough of those," she nods to Bubbles hopeful comment. "Lets spend some time doing inventory?"

[Anastasia]

Are you looking for anything in particular or just getting a sense of how much this is?

[Ebiris]

I'm inviting a loot post, basically.

[Anastasia]

Okay, quick question. If y'all just want a summary to cash out for money, I can do it now. Otherwise, I need to do it tonight since apparently I don't have the notes I thought I had for it. I have the value of it in my head so that's no big deal, but if you want all the bells and whistles, you'll need to wait until tonight for that part of it.

[Corwin]

If you think there's something unique inside we are likely to use, I can wait. Just give us a general estimate?

Stuff that would be cool: exciting +cha items, stat books, fresh ways to smite people, books of knowledge that lead to quests....

[Anastasia]

Let's wait then and do it right. We'll move on in the meantime.

A search of the rest of the demiplane takes several hours. You get the sense it's perhaps 10 to 15 miles in diameter, all empty space and dead earth now. Not the biggest you've seen - Sylica and the Cauldron come to mind here - but it's on the larger side.

[Corwin]

Is there anything outside? You asked us if we're going there to search first, so I'm wondering if there's anything of note.

The realm isn't malleable due to being broken, and we still have no idea how to go about fixing it? What would change that, a higher knowledge roll? Integrating into the Aurora?

Can it, in fact, be integrated into Aurora?

[Ebiris]

"There's not much to it," Afina says as they finish exploring, "But that leaves it a blank slate, free for us to re-do it however we like. I think I prefer this over having to drain out that swamp and everything."

[Corwin]

"No kidding," Jaela agrees, the return of her magic having allowed for her to fix Gae Dioltas up and generally raise her spirits further still! "And given how secretive Kras was, we've got the time to figure it out. When Bubbles spoke of financing our efforts through what we found, I couldn't help but think it would be nice to use all this space for training and research labs."

[Anastasia]

As mentioned before, you need a specialist, someone skilled in making demi planes or has been through it before. This is simply out of your depth right now, Jaela. To put it another way - you're a doctor who has a general knowledge of everything, but this is a specialized condition you'd refer the patient to a specialist for.

"Well then," Mirima says, "Are we going to bring Aurora over here, then?"

[Corwin]

"Yeah. Elena and Galariel are our foremost specialists on this. If anyone can let us know how to fix the demiplane, it's them. Plus, Sylvie, the old man and Vul'lath don't have anything better to do, I'm sure they'd love the challenge!"

[Anastasia]

Sounds good then. How's the plan to do that? Is anyone staying here?
