FINAL INVESTIGATION

[It is time.

The chill which had come from the now-open, unnumbered room has now begun to seep into the rest of the Depths. It seems to call to the Titled, beckoning them to come forward and to face whatever is now beyond that door.

Fie and Rubedo were right - that room was, indeed, the exit to the Depths. And at the end of the staircase is a door, which the Skeleton Key can very easily open. A few seconds later, the door at the top of the stairs opens.

And the city within the cave below is revealed to them, as they stand on a platform high above the ground.



The ruin still looks as new as it did the day it was built. The air here is cold mountain air, though the only light seems to come from one massive building carved into the very rock of the cave. There is nothing coming from the mouth of the cave save for snow.

On the door they just came through is a single parchment of paper which reads "LEINALZIND OUTER DISTRICT." Each building, they will find, is labelled similarly. Which means there is only one conclusion.

Welcome to the city of Leinalzind, Titled. And good luck, teams.

You will need it.]

[She ain't gonna kill the sad dude without everyone's say so]

[defriendestration]

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S STILL ALIVE!!

[zephyranthe]

Same. ...I don't think we should feed them bread anymore.

[bythewaves]

Poor souls.

[ Maglor says sadly when he hears the story ]

We should find the Intercessor, I think they should know - they called for them by name, yes?

[zephyranthe]

Yeah, they did. We should probably let them see [...actually she had this whole conversation with that guy and never got his name oops] those guys before we do anything else. Maybe they can decide what they want done, too.

[bythewaves]

If they called for them by name, as terrible as it sounds, I think it would be best for the decision to come from them also.

[zephyranthe]

Do you know if they're feeling up to it? I haven't seen 'em since they got hit by those invisible guys.

[bythewaves]

They probably are not. But a lord holds their people's lives in trust - they probably need to.
