7 - Temple of Zeana part 2 24-3-2016

·        Elenia’s Doppelganger attacks as the room fills with sand. Various attempts were made to look for a mechanism to slow or stop the sand. Believing the party needed to be 100% truthful, Ellemin told the truth of his story and Elenia told hers.

·        Arradir spots different looking stones in the ceiling. Party opens hidden compartment and Ellemin pulls the lever making the sand disappear.

·        Party returns to the sinister crossroads and enters the north door.

·        Kobold fight with runes on the floor – Dhurgir gets headbutted during macho display and has another personality change. Party fights the Kobolds and Ellemins doppelganger but sustain heavy damage from the electric floor rune trap and Ellemins doppelganger, who stabs Ellemin up the bum and knocks him out

·        Party has a nap to recover health

·        Skeleton Warrior swinging blade room – Party worked out pretty quickly how to defeat the skeletons. Arradir and Nymeria suffer heavy damage at the hands of the swinging blade.

·        Another nap!

·        Stairs puzzle – after climbing the wall, Arradir, Elenia and Therin all climb the stairs, only to activate a trap at the top which turns the stairs into a ramp. Come crashing down on top of Ellemin. Party soon figures out which stairs do what and ascend.

·        Statue Puzzle – party rotated and moved statues to activate the sequence – next room opened.

·        Doppelganger Room – Party was told on numerous occasions to “accept the ultimate truth” Ellemin was called out on not telling the truth about the coins he found. They exploded – but whilst Arradir was holding them! After a lot of deciding what to do, party laid down their arms and accepted their fate. Party were all knocked out by Doppelgangers, which caused them to disappear into ash. Giant ornate door opened into cylindrical room.
