Dragon quickstep

[Anastasia]

The room shifts and shakes, but the spell connecting it gives way to your arcane power.

[Corwin]

Seira takes a look at what is revealed! While keeping an eye on any guards or alarms, of course.

[Anastasia]

The door's trapped now - several alarms.

[Corwin]

Seira cocoons them in a sphere of antimagic, deciding to suppress rather than break them altogether, and takes a peek behind the door!

The 10ft radius of Antimagic Field should keep me within their range while glancing across, and not break stuff farther away from me.

[Anastasia]

Done and done. Behind the door sits a stairwell going both up and down.

[Corwin]

Come here, into this room, Seira invites her companions, showing them the way. She'll help push them through the door with a powered up version of Shadow Form if need be, but she'd prefer to explore this part together with them.

[Anastasia]

Done and done. Once your friends are with you?

For someone's junk storage, this has a lot of complexity.

After a few million years, everything's complex.

[Corwin]

This is either a section of storage someone wanted to keep hidden, a forgotten segment or the path towards what we're seeking. Either way, I want us to take a look.

And so, Seira starts heading up the stairs! Still invisible and stealthy!

[Anastasia]

You go up the stairs. It ends in a simple landing with an ornate door of red metal. Above that door is an engraving that reads: Yesterday's sorrows come today's triumph.

[Corwin]

That sounds like they're at the right place! And so Seira is extra careful checking for magic, traps and alarms!

[Anastasia]

The door's not alarmed - but it is temporally locked. Chronomancy, ancient but powerful stuff. It won't open by normal means.

You could probably work something out as you have the Time Domain, however.

[Corwin]

They aren't supposed to use Chronomancy, even in their domains. But maybe it's an artifact, just like the gifts Seira herself had received?

In any case, this does fall squarely under her authority, and so she leans on Time and Knowledge to understand the unlocking conditions.

[Anastasia]

The only way to open it is to destroy the magic on it. No way to unlock it short of powerful Chronomancy exists, and most would simply undo it as well.

It's more of a seal than a door in that aspect.

[Corwin]

Well, Seira happens to possess special talents when one needs their magic destroyed. And given her dominion over Time, she figures she's got a decent shot at this one, too!

Chronomantic lock, she relays to the others. Musing over whether I should form a lense of Chronomancy with divine will to use my strongest dispell through, or create a scroll of a variant Chronomancy spell that is specialized for this sort of thing. Thoughts?

[Anastasia]

Now this is interesting. If you're willing to break in, do so directly. Main force is direct, but it is so often effective.

Specialized tools work better. Force breaks, but it is not always a clean success.
