Luckily we picked the Stop Flying Rocks special skill this book. Hide behind the giant boulders.

Materant posted:This. Every time Lone Wolf has acquired a Lorestone, it has either been at the end of a book and it didn't matter, or when he picked it up it recharged him to full. Tiggum posted:When that happens it's mentioned in the text. It didn't say so this time. There is this textual reference: Tiggum posted:As each rod is broken its beam disappears and the fireball grows weaker. The golden light of the Lorestones begins to radiate through the evil green flames, and when Paido has destroyed half the rods, one of them tips and falls into your waiting hands. Immediately, a wave of energy courses through your body, filling you with renewed strength and sharpening your thoughts and perceptions. You shout encouragement to your companion and he raises his head to reply, but his words are drowned by a harsh and terrible voice. And by the way Paido would have been useful if we lacked magical object to fight undeads during the Jungle trip. Gully.

Runcible Cat posted:Gullies fill up with stuff. Head for the rocks. But keep a weapon handy.like achtungnight said. The Prisoners of Time posted:With plodding steps you set off towards the rocky cairn. Your feet sink ankle-deep into the hot red sand and you can only maintain your balance by leaning heavily into the wind. Walking soon becomes an ordeal and by the time you reach shelter you are near to exhaustion.

As much as I enjoy grave robbing I don’t like the idea of getting caught red handed. Leave the rod and answer their questions.

The Prisoners of Time posted:Having listened to your explanation the giants react with scepticism, but, despite their doubts, they are clearly fascinated by your appearance and the sound of your voice. ‘We are the Yoacor,’ says the leader, proudly. ‘We are the Lords of Yanis—the Shining City—and masters of the Abaxial of Czenos. Come, we will take you to our realm where you may tell your strange story to the Beholder. He will divine its worth.’

The Prisoners of Time posted:Warily you enter the room, noting that in spite of a lack of windows and torches it is bathed in a warm amber light. The opalescent glow pours from the walls themselves, illuminating a table set with colourful food and a huge, cushioned divan standing beside it. The oversize Yoacor furniture makes you feel like a small child exploring a dining chamber for adults, but your hunger soon quells your unease and entices you towards the table. You are very hungry after your long flight to Yanis and must now eat a Meal or lose 3 ENDURANCE points. The book doesn't say so, but I'm assuming that Huntmastery is not useful here as we're stuck inside these two rooms.

Am I remembering wrong, or was Huntmastery not helping us out earlier in this book anyway? I assume it was due to the alien nature of our current environment, so I said nothing before. Not remembering wrong- "Outside the wind howls like a horde of demons. It whips the sand into whirling cyclones that perform an erratic dance of destruction upon the plateau. You watch this awesome spectacle until the fatigue of your ordeal finally catches up with you (you must now eat a Meal or lose 3 ENDURANCE points). Unable to resist any longer, you close your eyes and drift off into a restless sleep. Two meals remaining. Healing: +1 EP (24/37)." Was that correct or a mistake on your part? Eat the food provided. Fingers crossed it's ok.

Eat the colorful food provided. If these guys wanted us dead they would have just dropped us mid-flight while we were napping. Worse case scenario we get a little sick because the food is so alien to us. Best case scenario is the food heals us.

Tiggum posted:That was also my decision, based on the fact that it seemed like we'd have trouble hunting while hiding from the storm and collapsing from exhaustion. That makes sense too. And btw, I dig the new Avatar.

The first time I read this book, I was an avid D&D player who kept expecting LW to meet an entirely different sort of Beholder. In retrospect I’m glad he didn’t- those things are nasty even with a Magic Sword and Kai powers. Check out the monolith. Why not?

Useless Divination posted:You focus your Kai skill of Divination on the Beholder and try to fathom if his intentions are for good or ill. You sense he possesses immense powers, both physical and psychic, which radiate from his body like the rays of an invisible sun. You concentrate on this power but all you can discern is that he is capable of using it to further both good and evil. Thanks, Divination. Touch the Monolith.

The Prisoners of Time posted:The base of the monolith is overgrown with weeds and wild flowers, indicating that it has stood here for some considerable time, yet its metallic surface bears no obvious signs of weathering. It is tipped with a transparent spike, which resembles a short glass spear. You can hear a faint humming sound when you place your ear to its mirror-smooth spire. The sound seems to originate somewhere deep below the ground.
