Sunday 1 August 1280, Midday (Putting Things in Motion)


"Ahhh, so there is a secret entrance," Oloc says with a smile. "My guess is we move the statue's arm to release the mechanism opening the door. What say you? Shall we give it a go?"

Gaven replies to Oloc, "Shall we try to trigger both the altar and statue at the same time?" The cleric makes sure everyone steps away from the possible trap door in the floor.

Duran nods in agreement and steps back as the others try and activate the trap door.

On the count of three, Oloc pulls on the statue's arm, and Gaven presses the square on the altar.

The square piece on the altar does not move at all. It yields to neither pushing, pulling or twisting. Gaven notes, however, that the square section does seem to cover a hollow space, unlike the rest of the altar's surface, which seems quite solid.

Oloc has better luck. The statue's arm descends slightly with a faint scraping of stone on stone. As the arm is lowered, the font is suddenly filled with a clear liquid.

How the liquid entered the font is impossible to tell. There seems to be no spigot or opening from which it poured. It merely appeared in the basin when the statue's arm was moved.

A pleasant fragrance emanates from the transparent fluid. The scent is difficult to identify. If the sunlight of a fair spring day had a scent, the perfume of the liquid could best be described that way.

    Gaven will try to lift the plate out of the alter and/or slide it to the side.

  2. Oloc - Mage

    Oloc is fascinated by the sudden appearance of the liquid. He doesn't dare mention magic, certain that there is divine power at play here.

    "I am not versed in such matters, but do you think this liquid might have special qualities, restorative perhaps?"

    Oloc will try and take some of the liquid in the cup of his hand and apply it to the mysterious red substance to see if it can act as a solvent.

    ooc: Oloc will also scan the entire altar area for a potential trigger for the trap door.

    1. OOC: As a cleric of the light, Gaven would know enough about Brother Camillus' association with healing to suspect that Oloc's proposed theory of restorative qualities is very possible.

    Duran continues to help search the area for a trigger for the trap door.
