<"Well, for starters, you could tell me more of what you've encountered at this point. You know, I don't always need to be the one getting in touch with you. Given that your team haven't reached out for help or assistance, you haven't taken priority. Had we known that you were under duress, I might've been able to get you resources by now. Do you have any casualties?">
The rumbling gets louder for a bit. Bits of plaster drop from the recently charred frescos.

The rumbling gets louder for a bit. Bits of plaster drop from the recently charred frescos. "Damn worms are goin' crazy up dare. Maybe Aman's messen' with 'em now with some undead spell fire?" Attilius surmises before looking at the sarcophagus and getting out his crowbar "This thing trap free?" he asks the group

"As far as I can tell, yes." He snarls at the half giant, his eyes wide as he stares up at the ceiling, his lips peeled back in a vicious snarl to bare his many sharpened teeth

Get ready for this, and no we have so far no casualties."> Quila fills Akos in bit by bit, room by room, what they discovered, either by mindways or having walked and stood there themselves.

<"So all-in-all, you have it relatively under control...
...except you're wounded and low on reserves. Why don't you travel back here to Kurn, we will have you healed and then once you regain your focus, travel back and confront your foes from where you stand now?">

"I care not for the thunder! I loath being trapped like a damned snake in a burrow, being hunted by making the burrow crush it with rock!" He chatters his teeth with anger, swatting away bits of plaster from himself as they fall from the ceiling"Thunder is natural and beautiful! We Rhul are not meant for being buried in caverns and dirt as the earth growls her displeasure, we are meant for the freedom of trees and nature of the great forest! Openness! Not this!"

<"Good. You have clearance to appear directly in the New City plaza as long as it's within the next twenty minutes. Oronis' blessings await.">
And with that Akos signs off.
Attilius moves to remove the lid of the sarcophagus. It takes a solid couple of minutes to work it loose and then free. A rush of stale air escapes. You hear a voice whisper, "At last ..." and you are startled to see a yawning hole where the bottom of the coffin should be. Ornately carved stone stairs lead down into the dank dark.

"Did you hear that!?! [Elven: What has been loosed by your curiousity?]" 'Muiko says as he scootches as far as he can from the sarcophagus, using the warriors as cover.

Not this!" - Nodding - "Not everyone can hold the magnanimity and beauty of earth, yet it provides with the soil to raise crops and the path where we walk. I'll teach you how to commune with my lords, to find peace instead of despair, beauty where you can only see threat, music where you can just seem to hear silence my dear friend" - in an attempt to calm him down somehow. "I would also love to learn the stories of your people, as I never heard of the Rhul, if you are willing to tell me, although hopefully this mission will end anytime soon"[OOC: Barkskin (AC 0, 6rnds).

"Did you hear that!?!" 'Muiko says as he scootches as far as he can from the sarcophagus, using the warriors as cover. He nods to the stone elemental elf and whispers "I'm just glad it talks in common"Stowing then replacing his crowbar with his gouge he leans down to the halfling and whispers "You're up. Find any traps down the stairs. I'll have your back."
