Gar-Malleos

[Anastasia]

Are people walking or flying?

[Ebiris]

Afina's feet never touch the ground.

[Iron Dragoon]

I have short legs so I fly.

[Nephrite]

Moore flies faster than he walks.

[Corwin]

My flight speed is higher so flight for me.

[Anastasia]

Mei and Canderella both fly as well.

The party reaches the stairway without incident. So the question is - up or down?

Afina can hear cries of pain and alarm back in the direction of her acid fog.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Down? I agree with Moore. If they're doing something with the ley lines, it'll be in the Earth."

[Corwin]

Jaela has no reason to argue with Moore and Surraruthru, and heads down!

[Ebiris]

"Down is more defensible," Afina agrees, pausing to create a prismatic wall at the very edge of her acid fog, too close for them to have a chance to see it as they stumble through the fog and into it.

Wall hits SR at +43, DC is 35

[Anastasia]

Wall is offscreen and will be dealt with there.

Down the party goes. Down, down, down they go, deeper and deeper. As you begin to walk down the narrow stairway, all of you can notice it's getting sharply hotter, hotter by the step.

[Ebiris]

It's hard to get hotter than a conduit to the elemental plane of fire, so Afina doesn't notice any change in temperature!

[Corwin]

Jaela is protected from the effects by a sacred, divine artifact she picked up on the sun and puts all her trust into it!

[Nephrite]

Moore has no reason to believe that his temporary elemental body attuned to fire will have any issues here and continues along.

[Anastasia]

It's hotter. Hotter. Hotter. Then at the bottom of the stairwell you see - a prismatic wall, blocking the way forward. A page of out of Afina's playbook, no less.

[Ebiris]

No one ever has the seven spells needed to take down a wall like that. But Afina has the one spell! "Keep clear, I'll disjoin it," she says, casting away.

Mage's Disjunction automatically destroys a prismatic wall.
