It's just a test.

Rolled 3d6 : 2, 1, 4, total 7

Maybe I should blow off the dust over here?

 Doors and corners, that's where they get ya

Need to find a way to kick this off again.

I'll figure it out one way or another today or tomorrow!

Considering this an official break for the holidays, so no pressure to post anything until after New Year's.

Especially no drunk posts ON New Year's.

The doors will require a Strength check to open, once everyone outside is done investigating.

The heavy wooden doors are shut, leaving the interior of the crypt a mystery.

Could've been a worse roll to go low on.  :D

Perhaps it's all the mud and muck, but Mara is unable to make a specific determination on time of death.  Recent, since they do still look like horses and ponies.

Mostly I was posting something here in case nobody has the other thread's notifications on yet. :D

If Sandy signals that it's safe to move up, everyone can react to the scene. :)

Sandy notices some bones underneath one of the horses, but would need to approach closer to see more than that.  Nothing else is moving that you can see.

The sparse trees at the bottom of the valley quickly give way, and you see your destination.

An archway of stone is set into the side of a small hill at the bottom of the valley.  Moss has overgrown many of the details, but one is still quite clear.  The keystone of the arch is carved with a flame symbol with a stylized rune in the middle.  Beyond the archway is a darkened tunnel that leads to a pair of massive wooden doors, one of which is slightly ajar.

A pair of horses and a trio of ponies lie slaughtered next to the archway, each corpse still tied to a post set into the ground
nearby. A swarm of flies hangs lazily in the air above them.

We're back!  Make sure you've subbed to the main thread if you turned it off.

Sandy, Maura, Kirdo and Dariel manage the steep, muddy descent without much trouble.  Checking the map, you see that you've reached the Serpent Gorge, and the Crypt of the Everflame is just ahead.
