Now some climbing. Two more jumps. And then a rickety rope bridge, with a rhythmic plume of fire every fifteen seconds or so close enough on her left that she feels a little singed.

Hot. Hot hot hot hot.

She tries to time crossing the bridge to avoid the fire plume.

Does she account for about six unusually large bats swooping down and trying to bite her as she's halfway across?

Eep.

That's a no. Duck and cover?

And get bit two times for her trouble, but then she's on a platform wide and sturdy enough to fight them. They're hard to hit with the sword, but it really only takes one good hit... So she can manage it relatively easily.

Bleh. She prefers goblins to bats. At least goblins don't swoop down upon you out of nowhere.

Swooping is bad.

They're slow for flying things, and they chitter loudly, so she had some warning unlike the terrifyingly near-silent Helmaroc King.

Anyway. Here's a bomb plant and another boulder to blow up.

Straightfoward enough. Boom.

Heh, that's getting to be kind of fun.

Door behind the rubble. Without any locks.

The room beyond is cut into four rough sections by lava. There are unusually large pots marked with water droplets all over in stacks along the edge.

What's in the pots? Can she take a look inside one?

The pots contain about five gallons of water each.

Hmm. Where's the next door she needs to get to?

Across the lava and up a ladder.

There's a treasure chest off to the left across more lava, more water jugs are available there.

If she dumps some water on the lava, that should put it out, right? That's how these things work, water beats fire.

The lava hisses with steam and turns to stone cool enough to step on. Better be quick though, quick to pour and quick to walk, the edges are already melting.

Quick seems to be a theme here. First the bombs, now the water.

Step step step quick to the treasure chest.

The treasure chest contains a map of Dragon Roost Cavern.

She could probably use her magic compass to identify which rooms all the other treasures are in.

How close is she to the end of the cavern?

...Not very close.

Does it look like she's missed any easy treasures so far?

Nope, she has missed zero treasures inside the cavern itself so far.

Cool. Onwards.

Water, lava. Quick quick quick, hot hot hot.

She is ambushed by some kind of red goo thing.

Hey that's a chu-chu thingy, isn't it. Kill the thing take the jelly!

It drops a teardrop shaped globule of jelly with a thick, taffy-like consistency.

The spoils bag slurps it up without complaint.

...There are more of them in the next room. Yay, more jelly?
