Heroica RPG - Quest#93: School's Out

[Myrddyn]

Erik fiddles with the pieces some more.

[Sandy]

QM Note: There are no "illegal" connections used in the build.

None of the combinations the party tries out are working.

"Krasch, do you remember how the lantern was before you broke it?

If Thalion's attempt doesn't work, Drucilla uses two more hints.

Heckz turns to ask Krasch about the lantern, but notices that the orcish student has slipped away.

"I-I-I'm sorry, I don't think the G-Gr-Greenies want to hang around me..."

Drucilla consumes an Ether Core and spends 20 more ether to refresh her memory.

"Hmm, now I remember that each pair of similar pieces - the round pieces, the discs, the spiders and the crystals - were on the opposite sides of the cube... and both discs were attached to the cube by a round piece. Does that help?"

"So Sorsha, can you tell me more about Mount Ulysses and the "Sheep Tribe"? And your Tribe must be really rich for you to be in this Academy, huh?"

"MOUNT ULYSSES IS TALL! AND OUR TRIBE IS BIG, BUT POOR! MANY MOUTHS TO FEED - BOTH HUMAN AND OVINE! THE TRIBE ONLY HAD MONEY TO SEND ONE CHILD TO THE ACADEMY, AND I GOT CHOSEN BECAUSE I'M THE SMARTEST OF THE CHIEF'S TWELVE CHILDREN! GOSH, I'M SO GRATEFUL TO THEM!"

"How's this?"

[Myrddyn]

"I think she meant the blue bit and the crystal will be on opposite sides."

Thanks. I didn't think there would be, but I wanted to make sure.

Yeah there should be another spider piece opposite the existing one. I only have one spider though.

Erik finally manages to get the parts together correctly, and gains some experience for it.

Drucilla takes hold of the lantern.

[Kintobor]

"Well done, Erik! It looks... a little spooky. Is it an heirloom of some sorts, Drucilla?

We could go up to the Faculty offices, but I feel we should clear this floor out first. We could split up, but I feel it's in our best interests to stick together."

[-obelix-]

Thalion sighs in relief, "Finally! Nice work Erik!", he smiles and nods in acknowledgement to the shaman.

We could go up to the Faculty offices, but I feel we should clear this floor out first."

Thalion nods, "That sounds like a good idea. We should cover at least one portion completely. What is left unvisited on the first floor?"

[Myrddyn]

"Thanks." Erik bows.

"You were close with that last guess though, Thalion."

"And you started us off well, Sorrow."

"Ah, yeah, we might as well check the rest of this floor. I don't think we've checked any of it."

[Cutcobra]

"I'd really like to check the Faculty Office right now, but I really don't want those two greenies to die because of me, so how about Thalion, Erik, Noel and me go for those two greenies while the others stay here?"

[Endgame]

"No problem, Erik... Glad we finally got it working.

And yes, we probably should try to round up those "greenies.""

[legobodgers]

"I'd really like to check the Faculty Office right now, but I really don't want those two greenies to die because of me, so how about Thalion, Erik, Noel and me go for those two greenies while the others stay here?"

"That sounds like a good idea though you may want to assume a more diplomatic air when actually speaking to these 'greenies'".

[Cutcobra]

"Actually, the only reason they don't want to be around us is because of Nuitan, if we grab them and send them home, we'll start checking this floor."

[Myrddyn]

"I'm fine with sending those guys home now, but there's still lots of kids to find, and they're probably fine where they are."

[Cutcobra]

"Well then, instead of doing that, we'll just check this floor first.

Heckz gets out of the Magic Classroom and enters the first door on the right.

[Myrddyn]

"Ok, sure."

Erik follows Heckz.

[-obelix-]

"Alright then." Thalion follows the rest of the party.

[Sandy]

Heckz gets out of the Magic Classroom and enters the first door on the right.

The first door on the right after leaving the classroom is the door at the end of the corridor, leading to the stairs where they fought the ghosts.

"Why would we go up again?"

[Cutcobra]

Heckz enters the first door on the left, then.

[Kintobor]

Karie turns to Noel.

"Because Heckz doesn't know where he's going.

Would you like to see the map, Heckz? We do have one."

[Myrddyn]

Erik follows Heckz again.

"We were probably just getting our directions muddled up. Nine doors, one leads to the room we got the lantern from, one leads upstairs, one leads back to the entrance hall, and one is a corridoor to a bunch more rooms. I think we want to check the other five classrooms."

[Sandy]

The heroes enter the next door to the left. It takes them to a classroom filled with religious symbols and statues. Three girls are kneeling in the middle of the floor, facing each other and mumbling something reminiscent of a prayer.

Then they open their eyes, and an eerie white light emanates from their eyes.

"The time has come!" they gasp in unison.

"Umm, w-w-what time?"

"Time to make the ultimate sacrifice, of course!"

"Time to give our lives for the Hallowed One and become martyrs whose names will be remembered forever!"

"Won't you join us? Come, let us step into the light and meet the Hallowed One!"

"Hmm, but do you think they will be accepted, Vanessa?"

"Haley is right, they might not be pure like us."

"Oh, that might be a problem, Deb. The Hallowed One shuns impurity."

The three students stand up and gaze at the party with their shining eyes, as if they were evaluating them.

[Cutcobra]

"The Who-llowed one?"

As soon as Heckz hears the words "Purity" and Sacrifice" he gets close to the party.

"As we all know, I'm the pure one here, but I'm not up for sacrifice today. Shall we put these girls to sleep? And by sleep I mean actual sleep, not killing them."

[Endgame]

"Let us gather more information first, Heckz... More brainwashed adolescents. My favorite." I mutter.

"Who is this Hallowed One you speak of, soon-to-be martyrs?"

[Kintobor]

"Ugh... I actually remember taking religious studies and my mind is lapsing over trying to remember the Hollowed One..."

She whispers to herself. She turns her attention to the would-be-martyr's, cringing in distaste. This looked less like the girls had any say in the matter, and more like they were under someone else's thrall.

"What do you mean by impure? We may very well be eligible to take place in your... um... sacrifice."

[-obelix-]

Thalion stands quietly in the back, looking at the martyrs-to-be and trying to figure out what has happened to them. He prepares to use scroll of sleep on them as soon as the discussion ends.
