Iuric calmly responds "Sprechen Sie Himmlisch?*" while checking the beings arms for any indication they'd been recently hacked at with a greatsword.


OOC: *Do you speak Celestial?

"Thanks"
Nobbys exits study the way he came in and reenter the SE room with the magic woman.

"I'd like to set you free, what do i have to do to set you free?"

"There is breastplate that contains the spell locking me here, you need to find it. When their master wears it, he can siphon my power.

Thank you for even thinking of this, whoever you are."

The beings arms look fine.

"I do, what are you doing down here little Aasimar..."

Like lightening it moves along the floor like a snake and wraps it way around a stalactite.

"...long way from home, No?"

Vrakrash notices light behind and jumps to the side as a bolt of lightening hits the ground where he stood.

At the door stands a dwarf, sealed completely in armour, even the eyes are obscured by some sort of gem based covering.

"Vrakrash, I have awaited you for a long time...Ossaril summoned you to this plane why?"

Vrakrash sees now that beneath the covering is a pool of water, it sings his name, wanting him to come closer.

"I am here to deliver the justice of Mesharum to the master of this domain. Would that be you?"

'This... plane? Who are you? What is this place?'

Vrakrash tries to ignore the water for the time being, focusing his attention on the dwarf... and the gem based covering. Gems keep him focused.

"This is my house, I am the master of all you live and work here. We have being labouring for centuries to save the dwarven race. Jumping forward in time to the points we need to continue our work.

You were summoned here, to this plane in the Zassanite deserts, by a fire god, why? Where are you from?"

His gauntlets light with electricity.

"The justice of Mesharum...interesting. No I am not the master, though I don't object to helping him, my progenitor is fond of his kind, as am I."

'I am a Far Traveller. I have travelled many planes, but this one is where I call home. As for why I was summoned... you would have to ask the fire god that, he did not tell me.'

He looks at the gauntlets.

'Why are you acting as if I am threatening you? What do you mean, save the dwarven race? Way I see it, there's more bloody dwarves in these lands than anyone else... or from what I have seen so far. Most of them nude, rude or... well... undead down here actually.'

"So you are from this plane then and were travelling in another when summoned"

"VRAKRASH" the pool calls.

The dwarf goes silent.

"Stay away from the water...my race is numerous, but corrupt, turned to worship of gods in the human style, forgotten our creator and the old ways"

"Do you intend to help him by standing in my way?"

"Not for now, though he will probably call on me when threatened significantly. For the moment you are another explorer, as have come by before, I have yet to be called upon, save for a human mage long ago."

"Would you happen to know where the master is?"

"Upstairs...currently talking to a dragon man...though as one semi-divine being to another, well descendant in your case...I'd advise against it"

"It's my sacred duty" Iuric backs away slowly and once out of the cave heads back to where he left Hurguil.

'Yeah, I was chilling in his realm at the time actually, he turns to me, asks me the question - I say why not? Hadn't been back here for a few years, so time to revisit.'

He turns to the water, now being drawn by it.

'What's with the water anyways? And corrupt? They worship Gods, sure but are there not good reasons?'

Iuric returns to outside the shrine, where Hurguil is still kneeling next to the iron door.

"Hey Iuric, so what's down those caves?"

Images begin to form in the pool, crystalising as Vrakrash steps closer. The master speaks, but his words seem distant.

Necro

Vrakrash eyes the master warily and then looks at the images within the pool.

Evade

"I found some interesting things." Iuric shows Hurguil the breastplate and spell scroll "And something potentially dangerous. But right now we have to find our Dragonborn friend." Iuric beckons for Hurguil to follow him back upstairs to the hall.

Entering the hall once more, they can hear a rough dwarven accent calling the name 'Vrakrash' from upstairs.

The pool reveals some of its history to him. An Elven superweapon used in the last great war between the two races.

He begins to see himself, Iuric, Sarric...two of them and even Retula and Mags within the images.

"Jump in" the pool calls.

Necro

Vrakrash shrugs.

He turns to the master for a moment, considering going back, but shakes his head.

Instead, he tips him a wave and a wink, and lets himself fall backwards into the pool, arms outstretched.

'Above my paygrade, buddy - I'm sure we'll meet again though.'

"That sounds Draconic" Iuric takes half a step towards the shouting and then stops and turns to Hurguil "It will be dangerous, I wouldn't think ill of you if you stayed here." before resuming his run toward the shouting.

"No, I'll come, my cousin...though what in Vergadain's name he was doing I don't know..."

They head to the room, as they round the corner to the door, they see Vrakrash leap into a pool of glowing water, which then glows incredibly bright, before going dark.

An armoured dwarf beside them stares ahead without looking at them.

"The Great Digger preserve us...."

Evade

OOC: Is the armoured Dwarf the only one in the room besides Iuric and Hurguil?

"You are the master of this domain, I take it?" Iuric says to the armoured Dwarf as he draws his sword.

"What?" he says seeming annoyed "Yes, indeed, look lots of treasure to loot about the place, no need to bother me"
