Ahead lies the great light that...

[Anastasia]

Cresiel and Jetina take point, shields out. Xandra stays behind you while Sylvie takes the rear and Kaja is right behind Cresiel.

"Loud," Jetina shouts over the din of explosions, before she grimaces. "Too loud!"

Xandra nods slightly, "Our hearing may be in danger, and we may even suffer sonic attacks!"

[Nephrite]

Moore just smiles, and decides to put his divine will to the test.

Alter reality for an effect like Silence, except as an area around Moore that lets them still talk, but silences the sound outside of it. I mean, obviously it doesn't really silence anything, but it should at least help with the noise and any potential sonic attacks.

[Anastasia]

So basically a really sculpted silence spell?

[Nephrite]

Yes, I guess think of it like a sphere around Moore, except imagine that the inside is cored out so it ends up being a hollow sphere, if that makes sense.

[Anastasia]

It's done, the noise stopped.

"It'll make it easier for us to be ambushed, but so worth it," Cresiel agrees.

"Far more agreeable," Sylvie seconds, "Keep your eyes open and moving, since we won't have audible cues if something's happening."

[Nephrite]

Speaking of, I'm not clear on what divine senses Moore has now as it pertains to sight. If he's using Afina's Perfect Sight, for example, does that give him 360 vision for a mile, or just the radius of the spell?

EDIT: And, apologies, everyone would've used the Blessing Stone before they left. It's not a big deal because they can just go back and get it if they need to, but here's what's added:

I don't know if you keep the spoiler blocks handy for them, but these would pretty much always be there because there's no reason they wouldn't use it.

Epic Mage Armor (CL24), Mind Blank (CL17) and Afina's Perfect Sight (CL27).

[Anastasia]

For a mile. Do be aware it doesn't grant you X-ray vision though, so it's only so useful in, say, a cavern or a hallway. It's excellent anywhere with freer vision, though.

[Nephrite]

Got it. We may proceed.

[Anastasia]

Perception check then.

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 95.

[Anastasia]

Thus you all begin to go down the path. It's narrow but after a turn you see it opens up - but you stop before it, as shards of sharp rock and volcanic glass pepper that turn constantly, the wall chipped and eroded.

[Nephrite]

Moore decides to experiment with something!

He's going to cast his at-will Blade Barrier along one of the sides to see if it can lessen the impact of the explosions, even if only for a few moments or not.

[Anastasia]

The barrier springs to life and largely stops the barrage - a few gets through, but it's greatly lessened.

[Nephrite]

Moore will gesture to create a few more blocks for them and then will proceed forward!

[Anastasia]

A few more blocks? Like blade barrier in a cubic form?
