"Don't stay long."

Nod.

They head into the cavern, checking for traps, checking for magic. 

Permalink

No traps or magic immediately inside the cavern.

Permalink

Then they'll descend.

Permalink

She sits in the Rope Trick and twiddles her thumbs.

Permalink

People appear on the ground below them. They're very bundled. It's difficult to make out features beneath the bundled clothes. 

 

They find the rope. They tug on it. They gather around talking.

Permalink

- fuck. What's anybody else even doing up here, what -

She stands up and tugs Verita up beside her.

Permalink

One of the people on the ground below starts climbing.

Permalink

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck -

She looks at the cavern entrance.

Permalink

They seem to be ignoring it in favor of encircling the Rope Trick.

Permalink

Aaaa. 

Okay - they're invisible, it's not likely but it's possible that the rope trick could have been left behind by the other adventurers, if she can manage to avoid either of them being noticed? Probably they'll move around the rope trick and probably if she moves she'll be heard, but -

She stands where she is and doesn't move.

The masked man reaches the top and pulls himself through with a hand raised to protect his head. 

He looks around, brlefly confused. 

He stands up and calls down to his companions.

More start coming up.

Permalink

Aaa. How many people total -

Permalink

Well if they have any sense they'll attempt to send eight.

Permalink

Well this is really really bad.

 

- is it possible to get to the opening from where she is, or is the guy in the rope trick with them blocking it -

Permalink

He's stepped back so his friends can get in.

Permalink

Well. This is gonna be real dumb but she can't think of anything non-dumb to do.

She grabs Verita's hand and pulls her, hard, though the opening of the rope trick, leaving both of them to fall to the ice below.

Permalink

- she is not expecting this and yelps as it happens.

Permalink

They knock someone climbing up the rope down! He knocks down a buddy! Both of them yelp.

 

They land very hard on the ice. Everything hurts a lot.

Permalink

Fuck. She tries to stand and her leg bends wrong and buckles under her.

She's let go of Verita's hand in one of the impacts, and obviously she can't see her.

She drags herself towards the cavern entrance as quickly as she can. It's not very quick and it hurts a lot.

Permalink

The cultists are yelling. Someone trips over Verita and now they are yelling different things, many of them spells.

No one stops her.

Permalink

She can't help Verita, not alone. She keeps dragging herself to the cavern entrance. Drags herself further inside, when she reaches it, and then looks back to see what the other people are doing.

Permalink

They dispelled invisibility. While she was out of range, apparently. They have tied up and gagged Verita. They're arguing.

Permalink

Fuck.

The trail she left in the snow is gone; Verita must have hidden it somehow.

She crawls further into the cavern. It's dark. She stops being able to see in front of her.

"Fazil? Mahdi? Hagan?"
