Guild Life IC - "Hand in your applications here"

[SagaSword]

Chev draws his daggers and ventures onwards with the group
"This will be good, lads. I can feel it"

[coroneljones]

Godwin ventured forth, raising his shield into its defensive position once again while keeping the sword behind it

[Kavrick]

Following the path, the group comes up to yet another door, this time a lot hardier and robust than the previous.

[Garrison]

Shaun stares at the door. His gaze hints disbelief

"Why would there be such a sturdy door in a place like this?"

[Karmac]

"Well obvyusly sumwun don't wants us getting any shinies wot is hiding behind dere, but doors is no match for me!"

Gazghul pushes past the group and begins hacking away at the door, attempting to cut it off its hinges so he can just push the door out of the way.

[Garrison]

"WO! HEY! GAZGHUL! WAIT! Perhaps we should resort to less destructive measures. You'll break your sword at that rate."

Shaun inspects the door after he manages to get Gazghul to stay his hand. he see's a hole near the handle. He takes the key the group found earlier out of his pocket.

"I wonder..."

He inserts the key into the door. His hand twists trying to get the key to move.

[SagaSword]

Seeing Gazghul going full rampage on the door, he rested his back on the cavern wall and watched while Shaun tries to use the key to open the door.
"Wasn't this the key to my chain's lock? Do you think it could be used to open both doors?"

[Kavrick]

Sliding the key into the door, it turns with a satisfying "click" sound

[Garrison]

"Hah.. Well how bout that."

Shaun gives the key one last look before placing it back in his pocket. Nudging the door open, he sticks the torch past the opening to see whats beyond it.

[SagaSword]

Chev excitedly took out his daggers and hugged the cavern's walls, keeping watch of anything that might come out of the door.

"I'd be careful If I were you"

[Kavrick]

The door opens into a brightly lit room strangely representing a small theater, with runes and gibberish scrawn along the walls and floor, a single man stands at the podium, with a large grin underneath his hood, he welcomes you "WELCOME, WELCOME! I always appreciate enthusiastic sacrifices!" he booms across the room, shortly before snapping his fingers, as he does this, numerous hands begin clawing their way out of the ground in the room before you.

[Garrison]

Shaun quickly lurches backwards into the tunnel at the sight of such super natural horrors. He points his sword forward in an awkward defensive stance. With the torch unintentionally pointed towards the ground, causing the area outside the room to darken.

[SagaSword]

Chev's eyes open wide with terror as he jumped backwards and took a defensive position with his daggers

"Take defensive positions and get ready to run if anything happens!" he yelled at the group while focusing his sight on the door.

[Karmac]

Gazghul decides to take a more active role in this battle, and begins charging towards the figure at the podium, yelling out a warcry as he does so.

[Garrison]

Shaun stares in astonishment as Gazghul charges in. Inspiration flows through his psyche, he hollers a warcry and charges in behind him, he sweeps his sword at a row of decomposing arms as he enters the room.

[SagaSword]

Seeing Gazghul and Shaun charging in he began focusing his sight on the man at the podium and threw one of his daggers at him and ran behind Shaun trying to stab and dodge the arms coming his way.

[Kavrick]

Gazghul bounds over the hands pulling themselves out of the dirt, landing straight on the podium,
"Wait! No! You were supposed to fight my minions first!" He yells, before Gazgul mercilessly cuts him down, his body striking the floor just as the limp limbs follow suit.

[Karmac]

"Stoopid 'umie, you cant trick me wiv magics, Iz only interested in real foitin!"

Gazghul then loots the corpse of the stoopid weezard.

[Kavrick]

On his corpse, Gazghul finds 5 Valis 3 Val, a ceremonial dagger, a large tome and a iron ring.

[Karmac]

Gazghul pockets the lot, and considers sharing the loot around later.

[Garrison]

Shaun saw it all as the Necromancer screamed out his last words. He wasn't sure how to react... it was almost like a dream.

". . ."

He silently pulls himself free from the hands gripped on his ankle as the emerging undead turn lifeless without their puppeteer. He makes his way over to the remains, with Gazghul standing over them. He pats his shoulder.

"That... was one enfer of a charge Gazghul"

He looks down at the necromancers corpse, he begins to take the robe off and folds it as neatly as he can into a square, he places a severed undead hand in the fold.

"In case the Guild doesn't believe what happened here."

With that done, Shaun looks to the runes scattered throughout the room, something clearly seems to be on his mind. He digs into some pouches on his vest, taking out a small string bag and a flask of water. He stomps on the bag repeatedly for a few seconds.

[Karmac]

"All inna days work hurr hurr!"

[Garrison]

After the crunching from the bag becomes quiet, Shaun pulls the string and opens it, revealing powdered charcoal. He pours it into the flask and corks it, shaking it to mix it with the water. He puts the flask down and takes out a purple feather from his bag. He carefully uses his sword to sharpen and trim the end of it, fashioning it into a quill pen. With his newfound pen and ink, he gets out his journal, and starts drawing all the unique runes he can find in the room.

[Kavrick]

Without understanding them, Shaun successfully copies the runes into his journal.

[Garrison]

Satisfied, Shaun slowly closes his journal, taking care not to smudge the ink. He places his newly made ink and quill back in his vest. Although he wasn't sure if this form of research would aid in his quest. It would be useful if he found an opportunity to further his understanding of such magics.

"Thanks for waiting everyone, shall we head back and report our success?"
