Hyrule Adventures 2

Quest for the Lost Pages, Part VII

You have arrived at the spot Brin pointed to on the map. Brin stands outside a huge stone entranceway carved into the rock face. Above it, carved into the rock is a roll of parchment and a quill, and below, written in Hylian is "Temple of the Forgotten Legends". So this is where the last page is supposedly hidden, you think. Brin sees that a few of the voluteers have already arrived. "Okay, everyone, here we are, at the doorstep of the Temple of the Forgotten Legends. As soon as everyone arrives, we'll get this quest started!"

doesn't look very temple-ish!

Brin.. !
there you are...
You should have said something when you left!
it took my a while to have found you!
oh..never mind it

hmmm.. so this the temple.. it looks creepy...

"Okay, so almost everyone's ready now." says Brin as he sees Kasei and Azador arrive. "Yes, Kasei, it may not seem like a temple from the outside, but we haven't gone in yet."

shall we go inside then...?
azador peeked inside.. a bit dark..
azador picked up some sticks.. FIRE!
here...everybody some candles

allow me... kasei caused a large flame to appear in midair, illuminating the whole temple...

Xokorn, having arrived a few minutes ago, took a peek of his own. "Wow...! This place is creepy! ...Neat!" He marched inside, looking behind to try to usher the others in.

"Ok, enough of us are here. Let's get the final Quest for the Lost Page over with!" Brin, Kasei, Azador, and Xokorn enter. It is dark inside, only lit by Kasei's fire. "It's exactly how my grandfather described it!" says Brin. "except... ruined."

You are in a large, circular room, with long stone pillars stretching up into darkness, and a marble checkerboard floor, which is covered in dirt and dust and bits of debris from some of the pillars that are no longer standing. There are remains of old stone tables and wooden chairs, and even candleholders. There are four doors in this main room, one to the left, one to the right, one forward, and one being the entrance that you just entered through.

Brin points to the door directly ahead of us. "According to the stories my grandfather told me about this place, that's the entrance to the library. That's where I think we'll find the last Lost Page. But there's something here that wasn't in the stories my grandfather told me about this place."

Now he points to a large jagged chasm streching across the middle of the room. Standing on the edge of it, you see that it goes down farther than anyone can see, even by Kasei's light. "I think its too far to even use the Jump spell to get across. But there is another entrance to the library somewhere, but I don't remember where. So guys, what do you think we should do first?"

THIS! kasei puts a seal on the ground, and is instantly on the other side...

But then, all of a sudden Kasei trips on his way to the library door and tumbles into the abyss...

fire surrounds kasei, and he is back at the library door... see? piece of cake!

OOC: we're not supposed to get to the library that soon into the dungeon...

IC: its locked! and the door won't burn!

OOC: o.k.?

OOC: yeah, good idea!

IC: "It won't burn... We'll have to try the other doors." Brin heads off in the direction of the door to the left.

Xokorn followed close by, scanning the room for any signs of enemies. Keeping his incantation for Fire in his mind, should he need it, he opened the door for the party. Still ready for ambushes, he jumped into the adjoining room and...
