This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Exactly so!

Mcbobbo sums it up nicely.

You can see that the multicolored clouds of spore to the North are dissipating very progressively. Beyond, you can see a long corridor with several lanterns similar to the one just after the plate trap, with a sort of little shrine and urn under each of them. You can clearly see there are two more red lanterns beyond. Maybe more. They are spaced maybe thirty feet apart, or so. They are all aligned one behind the other, on a north-south axis stretching right in front of your eyes. It's hard to tell what lies beyond the multicolored mist besides those lights...

Just as Ylarum and his companions are watching what might be going on up north beyond the coloured clouds of spores before them, he feels something hitting him on the shoulder. He looks around, and sees some sand or dust falling off the opening in the domed ceiling of the room right above them. Another small stone hits his helmet.

There is some kind of movement up there, in the tunnel leading up to the surface.

(DM: Is there enough illumination from above to tell what might be going on up there? )

(To the rest of the group) : "Move south, lads.  Keep those lines straight...let's see what might be coming down the 'chute."

(DM: regarding any NPCs I want to keep the same formation, just move backwards to the south so we're facing the dais, does that make sense?)

It does completely, yes. No problem.

You take your positions facing the dais from the south. There isn't enough illuminations from above to have a clear idea what is going on up there. There seems to be ... something, in any case. There are interminents showers of dust falling from the ceiling. Not enough to believe the shaft itself might be in jeopardy, but enough to clearly indicate that something's moving in there. Something that isn't the platform you are waiting for.

You wait a moment, but nothing emerges from the opening. It doesn't seem that whatever is causing this turbulence is coming any closer from the room you are in, actually, but it's there nonetheless. That's for sure.
