Like Clockwork

by Jordis Drianska

Hoo boy, this is a weird place let's start with the wins: we found Kelemor he's been escorted outside by some of our companions namely ori and roro, a couple others went with them so we did rescue some. And we found a sarcophagus of some guy/thing(?) named Edhror may have to look up more about it in future. There was even odd tech in a complicated door lock requiring the manipulation of a clock type device however they left the passcode lying around so we got in. While this may also be considered a bad and will be re discussed there Ezekiel did show an inclination to help when in need so that's always good wasn't sure how much that stoic guy cared but perhaps it was more his thinking I'm more useful alive.
 
The bad, I got a little over zealous with an old door and barged through it into spikes, I should have known better but sometimes it's hard to contain excitement to explore. There appears to be a very crispy body and some pillars that may be charged, probably best to avoid touching them as we continue along.
 
The bizzare, well Edhror for one he had odd claw like appendages and his room was staying lit? Khaggy found his way to some glowing cistern Polis was unsure of it's substance but gave some good notes. Right of course it was nice to have him back I have some hopes for Llobh but do miss Polis for more philosophical conversation. Anyways I've filled my skin with this glowy water and we'll see what it does as we go I guess.
 
I don't know if we have much left to explore I've convinced the others we should continue hunting for the other miners, and I don't think they suspect it's just to delve deeper and see what else this place has to offer. The potential knowledge is worth some risks and who knows maybe we will rescue more.
