Crystal Quest Aftermath, Part 5
10-15-04
The group awakes, and talks to the watchers, getting their items identified (Ring of dex, amulet of animate, lucky rock of int, broken bag of stasis, chunks of hematite [control person], Sarai's dragon core [same])
Fully rested, they go downstairs to investigate the remaining people in the barracks, leading the watchers down to the third floor. They run across a room filled with suits of armor. Sarai tries to animate one of them. She is successful, although the Watchers want their animated mannequin (named Manq) back when she's done.
They go upstairs, and find four guards with crossbows pointed at them. Andune erases three and three quarters of them with a lightning bolt; Akili finishes off the last quarter. The Watchers move into the room, and the proud adventurers go back downstairs.
While in combat, Akili calls Chaos to his hand as a weapon for the first time. These guys are harder, but they are soon defeated.
