Phoenix

[Corwin]

Seira is a bit happier deep down at the sight, even though it also feels a bit undeserved.

[Anastasia]

"Come on," Kascha points as the two return and you go on.

As you do, in a quiet voice, "I always wonder if that pleases your divine or your dragon side, or both," Elle asks.

[Corwin]

"Both, really. It's such a nice convergence of abilities. In theory."

[Anastasia]

"In theory," Elle agrees, "Still good fun, an enemy scared is one less target."

[Corwin]

"Nothing wrong with showing a healthy respect to me," Seira voices with a nod.

[Anastasia]

Onward. Through twisted passages calmed, ahead. As you go?

Help me!

A desperate cry ahead as Kascha calls, "That's Bwimb! Hurry!"

[Corwin]

Seira wordlessly picks up the pace, having Kascha lead the way.

[Anastasia]

Up another set of stairs. Another. To a door that pushes you back - the edge of the zone hits it and it repels it.

"Something's stronger there," Sanzha says, "We'll have to put our backs into it. With me, Seira."

[Corwin]

"Let's do it! Kascha and Elle, let's break through together!"

19:45 <Corwin> roll 1d20+6
19:45 <Kobot> Corwin rolled 1d20+6 --> [ 1d20=5 ]{11}

DvR?

<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+2 Sanzha --> [ 1d20=11 ]{13}
> roll 1d20+2 ???
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+2 ??? --> [ 1d20=12 ]{14}

Strata bonus of +4 applies and bails you out here.

A push and you're able to slowly go in, pushing onward.

"Help!" The voice is Bwimb's, far more coherent now and coming just ahead. "Please help me!"

[Corwin]

We're here for you! Hold on! Seira calls out, pressing on with all her might!

[Anastasia]

You push on. Into a chamber twisted, filled with filth. There's no one in it and yet someone is everywhere.

"We're here!" Kascha calls, as you hear a cry of relief.

"Help!" Bwimb cries out, "I don't know how to reverse this! It's like a puzzle I can't solve!"

[Corwin]

Some of Creation's greatest minds are here! And they do happen to be decent with puzzles.

Kascha, I need a moment, Seira instructs her friend. Can you stabilize Bwimb while I work on this?

Anything my many knowledges, perception and spellcraft (at 122) tell me here?

[Anastasia]

You have all the knowledges?

[Corwin]

Knowledge/History, Knowledge/Local and Knowledge/Nobility would be at 69+ but yeah, the rest are maxed out.
