The Oracle replies, "Faithful servant of Death, such a holy relic was within thy reach as thou slept."
Anyone know what it means by this?

Did you guys rest in a room in the caverns before Torix joined? Maybe the item was in our near that room?

Either there was something in the little room we slept in at the top of the stairs, or the artifact is in our dreams... :)

Or one of us has it already but it is not clear.

Did we check all the scrolls and books and detect magic on the found items?

Unless she means Gnasher's bone.?

Perhaps we should go back and search the places we've slept for this 'relic'.
1) the small room at the bottom of the stairs
2) the room with the exploding fungi-men
3) did we sleep in the round room with the statue where Kiri found the secret compartment?

It'd be easy enough to just go back to the fungi room and have a poke around.

I'm good either way. I assume she meant the room where we found the book before we descended with all the snake-like carvings?

My instinct is to search the places we've been again.

I suppose we have nothing to lose but time by going back and searching. Assuming everyone has plenty of food, water, and torches like Torix does.

It's been four and a half days, so I'll move it along.

The majority wish to search for the prophesized relic, so we'll go with that. The three who posted actions of searching can lead the way.

The rest are north of Dahinna (just off the map) or back in the skull chamber of the Oracle, whichever you prefer.

Thanks!

What is the +4 to Cruloc's save for? The hankie around his face?

The reason I'm asking is that barbarians coincidentally get a +4 save vs. poison.

So am I rolling d20+4 or d20+8?

Hi Yrkoon,
It isn't for his Class abilities. So you should roll 1d20+8.

The casket may be trapped against moving it.

Cruloc will drag it out of the room after it's been checked for such traps.

Can Dahinna check around the casket for traps without setting off more spores? Or has Cruloc busted them all?

Dahinna does not want to enter the spore room unless it is absolutely necessary.

No. If Cruloc wants to crush a path for Dahinna, there will be more Poison saves needed, fyi.
