Dragon Warriors

Ak'kulula collapses in exhaustion onto the stony floor after the companions manage to haul Kubluu out of the river. He watches helplessly as Etwa helps the unconscious Prince expel swallowed water and recover his breath. Breathing heavily, his eyes close as he himself lies down on the floor for a rest. Several minutes later, the boy opens his eyes and rolls to his feet. Concern visible in his brown round eyes, the Mystic looks over to the Prince to see if his Highness has recovered from his near drowning.

"A powerful sense of peace and serenity permeates the area near that door..." He begins, pointing up the stairs. "Perhaps behind it, we might find a place of rest."

He turns back to the Prince, waiting for his Highness to give the word to continue.

Kuublu thanks everyone for their efforts. Once he has adjusted himself and wrung out some water he will be ready to go.

Catching Kubluu's eye, Ak'kulula nods and slinks ahead up the stairway to the door. 1st with one hand, then the other too, he gingerly places his palms on the door and slowly pushes it open. As soon as the door opens a crack, the lad peeks in cautiously as it swings open...

OOC - Dunno if there's a knob or bar. Description didn't say. But Ak'kulula slowly opens the door, as quietly as possible.

You enter a low-ceilinged chamber hung with sombre drapes. A flickering lamp burns on an altar stone in an alcove in the east wall. A large mask of Nyami hangs above this. There are double doors in the west wall and another small door, like the one you have entered by, directly opposite you.

Kuublu takes a central location and looks to the others to see if they want to interact with any of this. He nervously clutches his spear.

The Mystic enters the chamber slowly, casting careful glances with his enhanced sight all about the room. His attention is caught by what appears to be a small worship altar in the East wall alcove. He moves closer to study the lamp and the mask above it.

The altar does have a slight aura about it to his Mystical sight, the lamp is lit somehow...whether it did so itself when they entered or it has always burned this way...he suspects that it will be an ordinary lamp if removed from this place. The mask appears completely mundane, a religious artifact but not magical.

The aura of peace and tranquility is almost palpable here, it is a very restful place and soothes the somewhat harried nerves of all of the companions except the Prince who still looks about fearfully even here....

Ak'kulula does a search (respectfully) of the room. He turns to Etwa. "Revered Sir. Do you know what is this room for? A place of worship and meditation of some kind?"

The boy respectfully asks from his companions for the silver bowl from the Corridor of Winds. He lays it down on the stone altar and fills it with water from his waterskin. Together with some of the food from his rations supply, he makes an offering of sorts, bowing before the lamp and the mask.

The old priest smiled, " A place for reflection and asking for Nyamis favour. I think the Prince should ask Nyami to strengthen his spirit again.."

Kuublu takes a suitable kneeling position, presses earth to his brow and raises his hands in prayer. He sings a song asking that Nyami keeps his ancestors close, to shelter their souls from dark forces and in return Kuublu will honour Nyami and protect the weak and innocent. This might take a while, but as in all things amongst his people, it is important to get it right....
