The folding occurs again without any ill affect. The stone stands before you, petroglyphs unchanged. The scarabs are but a flutter of ember in the distance. They do not slow or pause. No evidence of them even noticing your arrival.
Funny how paranoia gets baked into one's mind.
I assume the song is sung and the dance danced?

The dance is danced, the song is sung, the rapid sucking of soul and person to the world of the real happens again.
It is pitch black out and the wind whips wickedly with silt and small stones. It's loud. Not as loud as the general roar of a billion billion fires, but loud enough.
You stand once more in the cursed ruins.

Attilius looks about for anything that could pose a problem. If nothing is seen, he'll don his silt mask, take point and head towards the main exit they have used in the past.

See? It's pitch black and silt stabby. You should probably get your bearings first.
Donning the silt mask does little to help your vision at the present.
While you fluster about for your continual light enchanted stones, it only adds to a surreal dull haze of vision that extends a few slight feet ahead.

Muiko quickly dons his breathing veil and looks in the direction that Quila had been when we were dancing "Are you folding us home or calling home for a transport? Please tell me it won't be that damned bird!"
EDIT: To be sure we're all on the same page, Muiko ended Mind Blank as he started dancing.

Moons? Can't see 'em right now on account of the late evening time (or morning?) with heavy silt and perhaps even cloud cover.
Also, consider this. You have been spending a helluva lot of time in a place of *only* brightness. You gonna be coping with the after effects of this for at least a little while. Everything is dark & cold right now.

The giant stands in a defensive posture on overwatch (overlisten? oversmell?) while the others provide illumination...

Sadly, Attilius cannot smell the moon cycle.

Quila casts a Dimensional Folding to get us home. She will fold to the assigned location that we need to use for safety.
(OOC: rolled 60)
You can use that roll, but recall that the folding needs to happen beyond the Dragon Gate. -Bob

Niachi squints and gets a slow careful grasp on his Continual Light orb to hold it high above him for some light.
he turns slowly to Detect Invisible in whatever sight distance an elf has in these conditions.

"Hmmm. I might be able to assist in finding our way out of the haze towards the gate. Is it me, or is it colder than last we were here? Maybe time passed weirdly again and we are farther into the season, maybe even the Descending Equinox in Macro, no?"
Quila shivers and pulls her clothes a bit in, and rubs her gloved hands.
Quila casts a Protection from Evil spell on herself and a Find Traps, then she whispers to Skrye, "Friend, can you use the elements to provide you with Omniscient Eye? It would be helpful here."
