Duran agrees to search behind the wooden door before heading north again.
Gaven examines the map and points out the empty area between their corridor and the next corridor over, "Let's check the western wall for secret passages."
As the party moves northward toward the door south of the alcove, Gaven feels along the wall for any inconsistencies and knocks periodically to listen for hollow spaces. The whole wall seems smooth and solid.
Arriving at the door Oloc had suggested, Duran gives the portal a firm shove, and it swings open, revealing a small room beyond. The space is 20' x 20' in dimension and appears to be a store room.
Blue arrow represents party location.
Rickety wooden shelves line the north, east and south walls. They hold mostly broken crockery and vessels, along with a few intact jars of mundane herbs, so dried out they've almost turned entirely to useless, moldy powder.
However, you also spot on the shelves five intact glass bottles with stoppers in them.
One is clearly a bottle of holy water, which Gaven recognizes immediately as such from the standard Church markings on the flask.
Another is filled with a golden fluid.
The other three all hold a clear liquid, slightly different from the holy water, and which appears similar to the liquid you found in the font in the chapel above.
You also discover six unused torches in perfect condition.

Oloc - Mage
ReplyDeleteOloc pokes around the ancient storeroom trying to find anything of interest or value. He will grab the torches and place them in his pack.
Upon seeing the vials he comments to Gaven, "More gifts of the Light?"
ooc: I have updated my sheet with the 6 torches.
Once done in this room, Oloc will suggest investigating the door to the north.
Duran - Fighter
ReplyDeleteDuran stands watch in the hall while the others investigate the store room.
When they others are ready he will move north with them keeping and eye out of for the missing skeletons.
OOC: If Gaven needs another hand to carry the vials Duran can help if not they are all Gavens.
Gaven - cleric
ReplyDelete"A gift from the Light." Gaven will take the holy water and the golden liquid and one of the other liquids. He will give one vial to Oloc and Duran, "for safe keeping, we will question Abbot Cuthbert. Perhaps he'll know what these are. I do not recognize them."
Gaven briefly prays to thank the Light.
Let us continue north. Gaven continues to check the western wall for secret doors.
