Rory begins inspecting the room, looking for anything hidden, a concealed switch or a lever, something that would reveal a path forward.

As the group fans out, Hanuel heads towards the opposite wall, several hundred feet away, getting some distance from the group. They use their mask on the wall and discover it is a portal of some kind, leading elsewhere.

"Looks like it's my lucky day. We've got our exit over here. Some sort of portal."

by Snarg of Wildpaw Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:36 pm

Snarg cocks his head to the side, still looking around the room. "Exit? How ya know it's not leadin' ya to a pool o' acid er somethin'?"

by Zeiss Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:36 pm

"A portal...?"

Zeiss looks at the wall.

"Anyone familiar with this kind of thing?"

by Hanuel and Dara(Toilarin) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:39 pm

"Can't say I know where it leads, but it's the only other way out of here we've found so far."

by Fierneceal (Bellanai) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:39 pm

"A... portal? To certain death, most likely. We should search for more and if this is the only one, we take it. There's no other choice. It's that or we turn around, and I'm not in favour of leaving for the known right now."

by Rory Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:40 pm

"Great. What if it leads to the Dires?" Rory was becoming increasingly aware of the danger present in visiting such a place. He investigates the wall where Hanuel found the portal. he taps it with his axe, attempting to discern whether the space behind it is hollow.

Without any real warning Rory's axe vanishes completely, even though only the tip of it touched the wall. The wall ripples faintly, like someone placed a drop of water amidst a still sea.

by Hanuel and Dara(Toilarin) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:42 pm

Hanuel investigates the portal, watching Rory's experiment.

Rory attempts to reach for it, but recoils before his hand touches the wall. "Dammit, my axe! Well, now we gotta go through it."

by Fierneceal (Bellanai) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:43 pm

"Well shit. This is bad. We need to figure out what's behind there."

"It's got ya axe," Snarg says, pointing at the portal, "trail's bein' goin' in there. Good thing we gottin' a real reason to be goin' in now, huh."

by Archengeia Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:44 pm

The wall was not originally a portal, it was Woven to add one, recently though you cannot tell how recent. It looks like its destination is adjustable, but only by whomever Wove it.

Rory laughed a little. "Heh, yeah we do."

by Hanuel and Dara(Toilarin) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:49 pm

"I'll head through first. If Dara starts panicking, don't follow."

by Rory Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:49 pm

Realizing that they have limited time, and that whatever's on the other side might take advantage of an axe without it's owner, Rory resolves to go through the portal. Not confident in rushing at it headlong, he reaches out and places his palm upon it, ready for whatever happened next.

by Permeus (tabran) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:49 pm

"oh no you dont what if there is no way back"

by K Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:50 pm

*While the party decides whether or not to go through the portal or keep admiring it. Higaide checks out the rest of the room.*

"if you have to send anyone thou Dara gose thou as she can be desommoned and called back to you"

by Hanuel and Dara(Toilarin) Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:51 pm

"Well, I always have the key if I really need to get away. But Rory seems to have taken the plunge, and I'm not gonna let him go alone!"

by Zeiss Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:52 pm

"Just send your aspect first! You don't know where the Key will take you!"

by Snarg of Wildpaw Tue Mar 26, 2013 11:53 pm

Snarg stares blankly at the wall where Rory disappeared. "Ya rock kisser, what the 'ell."
