Session 5: Trials of the Loomaana Temple

General Summary

After the Shrub and Amber Animal room you all stepped into the Tree room. Of which you found, obviously, countless trees which paved the floor with their roots. Barely allowing a stone to be seen beneath its thick covering. With two of the 4 sunflower symbols on the main door lit up, and with two problems with the arcane workings fixed in this temple, you had a fairly good idea why the main door was locked and how to fix it. Searching the room you found the tower in the middle of a clearing being guarded by a trio of territorial Treants. After a fierce fight that took Alexa passed her breaking point you were able to hack away at the wooden creatures and begin work to fix the tower. At its top a baby treant was discovered and it seemed to have accidently destroyed some of the arcane runs powering the tower. Fixing the runes and taking the small treant as a pet, you all moved to the next chamber at the other side of the room.   It was marked with symbols of fruit and foods, but its interior was anything but that. Plants completely rotted away, the smell of molding fruits wafting through the air, and the rooms pitch blackness definitely made it seem like something was wrong here. Following the only dim light you could see in the room it led you to an opening in the floor where a path of arcane energy, which seemed like it was meant for this rooms tower, was left open revealing an Arcane Amplifier panel. Next to it laid the mushy corpse of a garuda, clutching a plate with writing on it. Using the corpses' plate and through trial and error you all restored power to this room, and finally allowing you passed the anti-chamber.   Which took you to another anti-chamber, thouhg this one was a little more welcoming than the last. 3 doorways were here again as well as two stone garuda guardians, who welcomed "initiates to the Loomaana Temple. Only the ones aligned shall pass, so please enter the Path of the Seven Centers". The statues pointing to one of the chamber doors. With none of the other doors responding to your ingresses, you took your first step on the path. Not everyone exited that night.
