Mist Veil Pt.3 Report

Expedition Name: Mist Veil Part 3

Part of Series: Mist Veil Caverns ("All's Fair")

Day: 81

Leader: Broken

Members: Broken, Green Light, Col Dusk, Dark Quill

Objective: Explore Mist Veil.

Result: Explored the majority of the western half of the caverns, found where the stone "key" goes.

Complications and/or Casualties:

 Pit trap claimed another victim, but two more boards made a solid walkway. Pit trap should pose no more threat.

 Rattlecats attacked, minor cuts. Offending cat was injured in the throat.

 Gong nearly deafened us.

 Broken hurt himself with a failed Light Spell.

Brief Description of Events:

 Dusk fell into the pit trap, immediately after being warned of its existance. Two more boards have neutralized the pit trap. Broken's failed light spell launched him backwards. Followed a westward path, where we found a mosaic puzzle (http://i.imgur.com/MKXDYOB.jpg), which dispensed a stone half-cog. In the next room, Dusk decided to buck the gong and nearly deafened all of us. We also found a door to a chute, which dropped down into misty death. A pillory was in the next chamber. Upon returning to the main chamber, we decided to take the fifth and final path, which lead to a room with three skeletons of diamond dogs, four busted weapons, writing on the wall, and a stone steele (http://i.imgur.com/uPPXG0n.jpg). Decided to turn back after that.

New Entities Encountered, with Brief Description:

 No new entities. Found skeletons of three (3) diamond dogs. Writing on walls indicated presence of threatening creature called an Alot.

New Information:

 Due to Green Light and Dark Quill being able to read, we were able to decode some of the writing on the walls. In addition to the revelation of Alots, the writing suggested that the Diamond Dogs that once lived in this cavern was killed by a rival faction and robbed. The presence of a chute into the (presumably volcanic) heated vents below and a pillory nearby suggests that one chamber was used as a form of ritual punishment, sacrifice, and/or waste disposal area.

Particularly interesting 'loot':

 Half of a granite cog, dispensed from a mosaic puzzle.

 Three diamond dog collars

 A quarterstaff and greatclub

 A crossbow with its bow broken in two places, missing a string

 A sword that has nearly broken in half.

Further Leads and/or Objectives:

 A granite steele with rotating disks, a pattern on the face, and a slot for a cog. The Half-cog fit into the slot, leaving half the area empty. It is suspected that the granite key found in the first expedition fits into this cog. Objective: operate the mechanism in the granite steele.

 Did not turn down one path in the western half. Still missing a couple of rooms and an alcove in the eastern half.

[01:18]  * GreenLight learned his BOOKS gud

[01:18] <COL_Dusk> [Crap.]

[01:19] <Broken> It won't exclude you if you haven't

[01:19] <Broken> Okay, This occurs in the morning, IC, but we're doing it now.

[01:20] <Dark_Quill> (Its 1am here, hence me possibly passing out)

[01:20] <Dark_Quill> (Did that last time)

[01:20] <GreenLight> [...Welp.  Popcorn intensifies]

[01:20] <GreenLight> [Wait... THIS morning?]

[01:20] <Broken> (is there a conflict?)

[01:21] <Broken> (The following morning, I mean, BTW)

[01:21] <Dark_Quill> (Whar?)

[01:21] <Broken> (So, Tomorrow morning)

[01:21] <GreenLight> [Um...]

[01:21] <Dark_Quill> (Okay)

[01:21] <GreenLight> [N-no.  Carry on~]

[01:21] <Broken> (You explore caves at night?)

[01:22] <COL_Dusk> [I do]

[01:22] <Dark_Quill> (BatPone eyes)

[01:22] <Broken> (Of course you do.)

[01:23] <Dark_Quill> (Continue broken)

[01:23] <Broken> The sun crests over the Great Eastern Forest, and the birds are chirping. The clearing around Mist Veil, as the reclusive cave has come to be known, is alive with noises. Broken stands outside the cave, boards poking out of his saddlebags.

[01:24] <Broken> "Hey guys!"

[01:24] <COL_Dusk> "Hey!"

[01:24] <Dark_Quill> "Hey Broken!"

[01:24]  * COL_Dusk fumbles around with his saddlebags, pulling out a blood vial

[01:25] <GreenLight> "Heyo Bro-"

[01:25]  * GreenLight shakes his head "Broken!~"

[01:25] <Broken> "Quill, how have you been latel.... Dusk, what are you doing with the blood?"

[01:25]  * COL_Dusk smears the blood under the corners of his mouth, and under his eyes

[01:25] <COL_Dusk> "Touching up on the face paint."

[01:25] <GreenLight> "...Ew"

[01:25] <Dark_Quill> "The usual, patrolling"

[01:25]  * COL_Dusk passes the vial to quill "ere, yours needs a little too."

[01:26]  * Dark_Quill doesnt take it "I dont need any, Dusk, were going underground"

[01:26]  * Broken has a tiny spark flit out of his horn. "So, I brought more boards this time. Last time we went, only two boards wasn't enough to cross that pit trap."

[01:26] <COL_Dusk> "true."

[01:27] <COL_Dusk> "Pit trap?"

[01:27] <GreenLight> "Yay!  I'm not the biggest fan of hardcore spelunking..."

[01:28] <Dark_Quill> (Suddenly reminded of that video)

[01:28] <Broken> "Yeah, we found a pit close to the entrance. Pretty smooth walls. I think it was a trap by the Diamond Dogs. We saw some illustrations of them in the cave."

[01:28] <COL_Dusk> "great.."

[01:29]  * Broken turns towards the cave mouth and the vines therin. "You've never been here, have you Dusk?"

[01:29] <COL_Dusk> "Nope."

[01:30] <Broken> "Well, you Batpones do come in handy in here. Dark and filled with mist. No visibility for us sighted types."

[01:30] <COL_Dusk> "Sounds about right."

[01:30] <Broken> (I'll be repeating some of the descriptions for Dusk.)

[01:30] <Broken> You come to the entrance of a cave. Immediately, you can see how this went unnoticed from the nearby road. A weeping willow grows over the cliff face, and its vines partially obscure the cave mouth. From between the vines, a thick, lukewarm mist rolls out. The white mist appears almost the same tone as the stone around it.

[01:31]  * Broken pushes past the vines and into the roiling mists.

[01:32]  * COL_Dusk breaths the misty air in deeply

[01:32] <COL_Dusk> "This is my kind of place."

[01:32]  * COL_Dusk trots in, smirking

[01:32]  * Dark_Quill follows Broken and dusk

[01:32] <Broken> As you pass beyond the veil of fog and vines, you see writing scratched into the cave wall in a barely legible equestrian. The fog billows around you, making the remainder of the cave almost invisible.

[01:33]  * COL_Dusk raises an eyebrow at the writing

[01:34] <Broken> "I haven't had time to learn equestrian yet. Too busy mapping. Anybody here hooked on phonics?"

[01:34] <COL_Dusk> "Anybody know what that says?

[01:34] <Dark_Quill> "Yes i took classes in the mornings"

[01:34] == GreenLight_ [[email protected]] has joined #fourcannonwatchtower

[01:34] <GreenLight_> "Oh, hey, I can read it now!"~"

[01:34]  * Dark_Quill examines the writing on the wall

[01:34] == GreenLight [[email protected]] has quit [Quit: Web client closed]

[01:35]  * GreenLight_ backs off "Erm, sure Dark, go ahead"

[01:35] <GreenLight_> "...Anyone read 'Hyperbole-and-a-Half?'

[01:35] == GreenLight_ has changed nick to GreenLight

[01:36] <Broken> "What do you mean?"

[01:36]  * Dark_Quill examines the words "...Dont...Get..Stabbed by...The alots...They stab... Alot"

[01:36] <Broken> "That doesn't make sense."

[01:36]  * COL_Dusk chuckles

[01:36] <COL_Dusk> "The stab alots stab alot."

[01:36] <GreenLight> "The Alots... You know... Alot of time, alot of fire, alot of trees..."

[01:36]  * Dark_Quill scratches his head "Thats very clear for a warning"

[01:36] <COL_Dusk> "No shit, diamond dogs."

[01:37]  * COL_Dusk continues chuckling

[01:37] <Broken> "I guess, but what do they mean Alots?"

[01:37] <Dark_Quill> "I think my nephew can write a better warning and hes 5"

[01:37] <GreenLight> "Well, in H-A-A-H, it's a beast..."

[01:38] <COL_Dusk> "A large number of stab crazy things."

[01:38] <Dark_Quill> "Im assuming creatues with weapons that prefer the stabbing technique"

[01:39]  * Broken turns further into the cave. "I hope we don't meet those... BeeTeeDoubleYou, Watch out for the pit. It should be coming up."

[01:39] <COL_Dusk> "This is going to be just wonderful!" *Dusk Says sarcastically*

[01:39] <GreenLight> "Hue"

[01:40]  * Dark_Quill follows dusk "The one you fell in?"

[01:40] <Broken> "Yes. The one I fell in. And dropped the torch in. And other things... Stupid pit."

[01:40] <GreenLight> "Stupid, nonsentient pit"

[01:41] <Broken> Roll Reflex errypony.

[01:41] <Dark_Quill> "Shouldve taken my safe rope across instead of following the others who swung"

[01:42] <Broken> While most of the party notices the pit's edge in time, Dusk drops out of sight. (1d4 Subdual damage)

[01:42] <Broken> "So did Dusk..."

[01:43] <GreenLight> "DON'T FALL I- Oh hell, Dusk."

[01:43]  * COL_Dusk moans "herrr.....shit..."

[01:43] <Broken> "At least it isn't all that deep..."

[01:43]  * Dark_Quill sees the edge of the pit way before the others. And also watches his Colonel fall down it

[01:43] <COL_Dusk> [How much hp do we have?]

[01:43] <GreenLight> [10]

[01:43] <Dark_Quill> (10)

[01:43] <Broken> (10, but that was Subdual, not lethal damage)

[01:44]  * COL_Dusk takes a moment to get up, stretching and popping his back with a loud *SNAP*

[01:44] <Broken> (6 more till you go night night, but not dead)

[01:44] <COL_Dusk> "GAH... shit.."

[01:44] <COL_Dusk> "Found the pit guys..."

[01:44] <Broken> "We have a rope we can toss him?"

[01:44] <GreenLight> "I do!"

[01:44] <Dark_Quill> "I have one" He digs it out of his bag

[01:45] <GreenLight> "Erm, you go ahead Dark."

[01:45] <COL_Dusk> [beta-bob]

[01:45] <COL_Dusk> "Come on, toss it down."

[01:46]  * Dark_Quill tosses one end of the rope down

[01:46] <Broken> "Hey, what happened to that rope with a weight thing on it you had GL? Did you ever get it translated?"

[01:46] <GreenLight> [I have one helluva good reason to be]

[01:46] <GreenLight> "Yeah!  It says..."

[01:46]  * COL_Dusk wraps his front hoofs and one back hoof around the rope

[01:46]  * COL_Dusk climbs up the rope slowly

[01:46] <GreenLight> "To those who come after... You're Welcome..."

[01:46]  * Dark_Quill holds onto the rope

[01:47] <GreenLight> "So, erm, this cave was inhabited..."

[01:47] <COL_Dusk> [charlie-bob]

[01:47]  * GreenLight gets flustered and loses his grip, falling on his back "WAUGH!"

[01:48] <Broken> With a mighty heave, Dark Quill hoists Dusk over the lip of the pit.

[01:48]  * COL_Dusk takes a moment to catch his breath

[01:48] <COL_Dusk> "Thanks."

[01:48] <Dark_Quill> "

[01:48] <Dark_Quill> "Your welcome Colonel%

[01:49] <COL_Dusk> "Alrighty Broken, lets see those boards."

[01:49]  * Broken breathes a couple breaths and picks himself up. He then grabs onto the board in his pack and lays it down over the pit. He repeats with the other board. There is now a stable path of four boards across the pit.

[01:49] <Broken> "We shouldn't have any problems any more.

[01:50]  * Dark_Quill crosses the pit with his wings spread incase of accident

[01:50]  * COL_Dusk crosses after quill

[01:50]  * GreenLight follows, shivering

[01:50]  * Broken walks across the boards, checking for sturdyness. "Maybe later, I'll add crossbraces."

[01:51] <Broken> "Problem GL?"

[01:51] <GreenLight> "U-um, n-nope!"

[01:51] <COL_Dusk> "Don't worry about falling Green, it only hurts a lot."

[01:51]  * GreenLight puts on a smile.  That's not what's he's scared about.

[01:51] <Dark_Quill> "But its not deadly"

[01:52] <Broken> The cavern opens into a broad chamber, branching out ahead into five different pathways. In this chamber, a stalagtite has been fashioned into a column decorated with carved reliefs and dots. In front of the column is a short pedestal, fashioned from the same stone as the column. It bears a small, wooden chest. To your left, mist pours out of a gaping hole in the cave floor. A rope and pulley is the only indicator that this bare hole is a makeshift well.

[01:52] <GreenLight> "Muh bucket... Oh shit, forgotit at home"

[01:52] <COL_Dusk> "Hey look, a chest!"

[01:53] <Broken> "Yeah, It's empty now."

[01:53] <Broken> "Arrant has the stone disk that he found out of it."

[01:53] <Dark_Quill> "Sounds like a great treasure"

[01:53] <COL_Dusk> "Oh..."

[01:53] <COL_Dusk> "So how about that makeshift hole?"

[01:54] <Broken> "Yeah. A well of sorts. Smells like Florida water, though."

[01:54] <Dark_Quill> "I'll go with ya dusk"

[01:54] <COL_Dusk> "Hmm.

[01:55] <COL_Dusk> "And the tunnels?"

[01:55] <Dark_Quill> "Misty one?"

[01:55]  * Broken pulls out a map from his kit. "We've explored a couple of the tunnels. Here..."

[01:55] <Broken> http://boards.4chan.org/mlp/res/13311653#p13409083

[01:56]  * GreenLight studies the map

[01:56]  * COL_Dusk examines the map "What made you turn back at 15?"

[01:57] <Broken> "We actually turned right. We thought that the column had some hints on where to go...:

[01:57] <Broken> "Not sure now."

[01:57] <COL_Dusk> "That first tunnel looks pretty interesting."

[01:58] <Broken> "We alternated between clockwise and counter-clockwise turns to match the columns dots."

[01:58]  * Dark_Quill notices the bleeding ponies in the corner of the map

[01:58] <Broken> "Sorry, Quill. I doodle sometimes..."

[01:59] <Broken> "Been having some tough dreams, must be coming out in my doodles."

[01:59] <Dark_Quill> "Okay... So  the one on the left?"

[01:59] <COL_Dusk> "Sounds good to me."

[01:59] <Broken> "We could try."

[01:59] <GreenLight> "You alright, Broken?"

[02:00] <Broken> "Uh... Yeah. I'm fine. Which of the two left paths? You know, let's get some more light in here..."

[02:00]  * Broken puts the map away.

[02:01]  * GreenLight is a distance away

[02:01] <Dark_Quill> anymore*

[02:01] <GreenLight> [Since when Dark?]

[02:01] <Dark_Quill> (Dunno saw Able say it)

[02:02]  * Broken sputters and sparks. A bolt of brilliant vermilion light launches Broken against the cave wall.

[02:02] <GreenLight> "WHOA"

[02:02] <Broken> (I do. Horn doesn't work right)

[02:02] <COL_Dusk> "now lets- WHOAH SHIT"

[02:02]  * COL_Dusk ducks

[02:02]  * Dark_Quill jumps back "HOLY FUCK!"

[02:02] <Broken> "Yeah, I've had worse."

[02:02]  * COL_Dusk trots over to broken

[02:03]  * Dark_Quill walks over to broken and thinks of all of the skyrim references

[02:03] <Broken> "I don't understand... It worked the last time I tried that spell..."

[02:03]  * COL_Dusk holds out a hoof

[02:03] <GreenLight> "It seems to be a roll of the dice each time, eh?"

[02:03] <COL_Dusk> (hue)

[02:03] <Dark_Quill> (Lel)

[02:04]  * Broken takes Dusks hoof and pulls himself up, "I just don't know what went wrong."

[02:04] <Broken> (Lol)

[02:04] <COL_Dusk> (double hue)

[02:04] <Dark_Quill> (Kek)

[02:04] <Broken> "So, leftmost corridor it is..."

[02:05] <GreenLight> "Right-o"

[02:05]  * Broken trots to the corridor with a slight limp, which smooths out over time.

[02:06]  * COL_Dusk trots right behind him

[02:06]  * GreenLight sighs in relief as the limp goes away, trotting close behind and keeping an eye on a certain somepony

[02:07] <Broken> The rough cavern curves sharply off to the left. An unevenly carved alcove halfway down bears a strange collusion of different colors obscured by mist and distance.

[02:07] <GreenLight> "Whoa..."

[02:07] <Dark_Quill> "...Well aint that preety"

[02:07] <COL_Dusk> "Now that's somethin."

[02:08]  * Broken peers at the colors in the alcove. "Think something is in there?"

[02:08]  * GreenLight gazes in awe

[02:08] <GreenLight> "Maybe a better angle would suffice?"

[02:08] <COL_Dusk> "Probably."

[02:08] <COL_Dusk> "Lets give it a look."

[02:08] <Broken> "Anybody got a flint and steel? We can make a torch and see better."

[02:09]  * COL_Dusk stops himself

[02:09] <COL_Dusk> "I do,"

[02:09]  * Broken pulls out his burnt stick.

[02:09]  * COL_Dusk pulls it out

[02:09] <Broken> "Light me!"

[02:09]  * GreenLight highhoofs Broken

[02:09]  * COL_Dusk lights the torch

[02:09] <Dark_Quill> "I totally forgot mine"

[02:09] <Broken> The alcove contains a framed mosaic made of red, black, white, and yellow stones of different shades. It depicts a female diamond dog hunched over and smiling. The rest of the picture seems to be mostly negative space, but vaguely resembles a room. A single green stone stands out from the scene. There are slots carved into the stone wall bothe above and below the mosaic.

[02:10] <Broken> (Want a visual?)

[02:31] <Broken> This is enormous chamber has been carved to have a perfectly smooth floor leading up to a tiered dais on the far side of the room. An ornate metal gong hangs in a heavy wooden stand on the dais. Immediately to the left of the gong is a wooden door set into the cave wall. The door is big enough that you may be able to squeeze through with some greateffort. Its handle is at the top and center, and mist pours through the cracks in the wood.

[02:37] <Broken> When you open the door, a blast of muggy, hot steam slaps you in the face. On the other side of the door, there is a sheer drop in a small chute.

[02:37] <COL_Dusk> "MAYBE THEY SACRAFICE THEM HERE"

[02:38] <Dark_Quill> "WOAH"

[02:47] <Broken> (Just realized I forgot to pre-write this one)

[02:48] <Broken> You pass through a carved stone archway and into the next tunnel. To your left, the tunnel cuts into a shallow alcove where you find a pillory. It seems large, and made of sturdy wood.

[02:49]  * Green_Light instinctively looks to the right

[02:49] <COL_Dusk> "Whats that?"

[02:49]  * COL_Dusk cocks an eyebrow

[02:49] <Broken> "A stockade of some sort."

[02:50] <Dark_Quill> "Hm"

[02:50] <COL_Dusk> "Stockade?"

[02:50] <Broken> "Yeah, you close it on someone's neck and wrists. It holds them there.

[02:54] <GreenLight> "Oh... Maybe they were, like, a realllly bad gang!!"

[02:54] <Broken> "We don't really know much about the ecology of the Diamond Dogs. I mean, we've encountered marauders and we saw some in the show... That's it."

[02:59] <Dark_Quill> "They dont rattle"

[02:59] <COL_Dusk> "They shake their tails like a rattlesnake."

[02:59] <GreenLight> "Not really... They don't strike me as stabbers... More slashers..."

[02:59] <Broken> "And then they slash you with them."

[02:59] <Dark_Quill> "I think we need some other name"

[03:00] <COL_Dusk> "You never know, this could be a really cliche situation."

[03:00] <Broken> "So, should we continue exploring or turn back?"

[03:00]  * GreenLight thinks of all the cliches

[03:15] <GreenLight> [Understandable]

[03:15] <COL_Dusk> "Another remark like that, And I'll have you doing pushups until you're 80."

[03:16]  * COL_Dusk growls a little, but takes his hoof off and shows it to broken

[03:16] <Dark_Quill> (Who are you talking too Dusk?)

[03:16] <GreenLight> 'Dusk... Phew.  Your wound isn't *too* bad... Will need to check that out later, though."

[03:17]  * COL_Dusk follows behind

[03:17]  * Dark_Quill is followin

[03:17] <Broken> As you enter this chamber, the slight chill of the mists clings to you, almost as much as the chill down your spine. Water drips almost constantly from the ceiling, leaving tiny pocks in the floor, filled with chilled water. To your right, a pile of assorted bones lies on the floor. The skeletons seem almost complete, and one lays over the other. Just beyond that is a pile of what appears to be junk. The walls are coated in bright yellow paint, forming giant equestrian letters and huge runic symbols. To you

[03:17] <Broken> (Where does that let off?)

[03:18]  * GreenLight shivers once more, this time not because of the insane guilt.  [>Yellow paint]

[03:18] <Dark_Quill> (Skeletons2spooky)

[03:18] <Broken> The walls are coated in bright yellow paint, forming giant equestrian letters and huge runic symbols. To your left, the cave wall is interrupted by a slab of polished granite.

[03:18]  * GreenLight reads the letters

[03:18]  * Dark_Quill examines the letters

[03:18] <COL_Dusk> "Well it seems we're not the only ones to find this place."

[03:18]  * COL_Dusk gestures to the skeletons

[03:18]  * Dark_Quill examines the skeletons

[03:19]  * GreenLight gulps

[03:19] <GreenLight> "Well... I was right about the idea of a rebel gang..."

[03:20] <COL_Dusk> "What does it say?"

[03:20]  * Dark_Quill reads the letters "...Yeah seem a rival pack came here"

[03:20] <GreenLight> "Here lies the... Um... Iunnowhatthatmeans pack... They were stupid... gits?...

[03:20] <Broken> "Idiots."

[03:20] <GreenLight> "Their treasure now remains to the... SamewordagainnotsureARGH pack

[03:21] <Dark_Quill> "Hey guys, these are dog skeletons:

[03:21] <GreenLight> "..."

[03:21]  * GreenLight looks at the skeletons

[03:21] <GreenLight> "Ruh roh"

[03:21] <Broken> "As in Diamond Dog?"

[03:21] <Dark_Quill> "Yeah"

[03:21] <Broken> "Curious."

[03:31] <Broken> It slides into the hole, filling up one half of it.

[03:31] <COL_Dusk> "Damn you Al!"

[03:31] <COL_Dusk> "We're missing part of the cog.."

[03:32] <Broken> "Maybe more than one piece that we're missing."

[03:32] <Broken> "What do you make of the pattern on the door?"

[03:33] <COL_Dusk> "It looks like it would turn to open.."

[03:33] <COL_Dusk> "After we put the pieces in."

[03:33] <COL_Dusk> "For that to happen, this cog would have to turn.."

[03:34]  * COL_Dusk facehoofs

[03:34]  * COL_Dusk tries to turn the pieces to align with the lines on the slab

[03:34]  * Dark_Quill takes his collar off
