"The Lux Sanctus begins its emation at each of the three waystones. The estimate of the cleansing aura radius from each waystone is 500 meters." The statue answered coldly, standing by for any further questions.

Judging by how the statue answered, Jenny suspected if need be she could ask several questions and gain clear answers in whatever order she asked.

"Custodian what other information do you know about this complex?" Jenny looked to Riley to see if she had some of her own questions. Hopefully the custodian would be able to answer or at lest inform her of the layout in the facility.

"Unfortunately I cannot tell you more. I am here only to assist in matters related to the great genius Dominicus creations." Riley stepped in for a quick question as well "Are there any more 'creations', besides the two we asked about?" "Not that I know of."

Her question answered Riley returned her gaze to the spinning sphere "So this controls the invaders?" she'd speak though clearly she was in deep thought "And is there a way to activate this device as it is now?" the trickster looked to the statue clearly considering some sort of plan.

"Ofcourse, it has been used numerous times recently. The spells to control the constructs energy are before you summoner." the statue pointed to the book.

"Riley is their away to make this only target invaders?" Jenny waited to hear the answer a quiet hope building in her heart. If they could elimate the invaders then they could have a much easier time of this. Not to mention if it did get activated it wouldn't nuke her or Riley not to mention anyone else who happened to wander in.

Riley furrowed her brow at the strange phrase "Do what?" she'd snicker playfully "So all the spells to control the creations are right here?" the trickster looked over the hefty spellbook "No you may only control the Guidestone."

The girl looked to Jenny and then to the statue "And the Lux wards?" "They can only be activated in their own respected chamber." noting what Jenny asked Riley would reform the question "And the Lux Sanctus activation, can it be readjusted or changed to not effect non-angelic life?" "I do not know." well there was a bust. Riley have gave Jenny a slightly disappointed shrug, leaving their further actions to her.

Jenny looked it over and sighed. Still if they couldn't use it... "Riley can we shut this thing off ... ya know make it not work ever again? Or maybe just lock it so that its stuck to a setting we want. I would to have it keep the invaders away indefinatly."

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"I would not suggest that." the statue would interrupt Jenny, causing both girls to look to it "Why not?" Riley would ask first "The magical build-up may cause... unforseen consequences."

Even if the voice remained as cold and lifeless as it was before, somehow Jenny got the impression they really shouldn't do it.

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"So we cannot shut it off and we cannot have it only target one thing." Jenny sighed. She didn't like the idea of such a thing existing right under her nose. It could be used for far to much evil if left unchecked. "Any thoughts Riley....."

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"Well..." Riley placed a finger on her lips looking at the device "If there was a Alien problem, we could use this and have an angel activate a distant ward. Could be quite useful..." the trickster turned to the statue "Can each ward be activated seperately?" "Yes or all at once."

"Then again we don't know an angel who could do it, or have an alien problem." Riley sighed lightly "I'd say burry the entrance and leave it here to rot away."

"If we could get Grace free she could do it. But the inquisitors....." Jenny's eyes shot open. "The inquisitors! Your right Riley we need to seal this off before they find it as well." Jenny looked to Riley a sense of urgancey. "We could use the dynomite we have to seal off this room and keep anyone from using the device with out risking it magically overloading."

 

[Ubberific]

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"You still got the sticks?" Riley cracked a light smile at the potential boom as they looked over their inventories. Indeed they were more than well armed for the explosion "But..." the trickster paused and looked to the device "Well.. I certainly don't know of any uses for it. You?"

Seemed Riley still had some doubts about the plan, but wasn't going to argue.

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"Yeah!" Jenny smiled but picked up on Riley's unsure mood. "Hey we are a team are we not. As such I need you to voice your thoughts on such things. If you don't like the plan we can find another." Jenny looked up at the custodian. "Custiodian what other uses can this weapon be used for?"

 

[Ubberific]

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

Riley cracked a smile at Jennys enthusiasm and looked to her ask the question "None." this even brought a light snicker from the trickster "No, you know, it's just it's a really impressive device. Whoever built this was... nothing short of brilliant." she'd smile widely to Jenny "If you could just feel how much energy this room is constantly emitting, it's... insane."

She'd sigh deeply once more "Well, but if it's between leaving it for any returning demons or blocking the entrance, pretty sure which one I wanna pick." she'd take out one of the dinamite sticks with a wicked grin "Shall we?"

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

Gathering up the boom sticks Jenny would check the hall to make sure that they wouldn't seal off a door they had yet to examin yet. Once she was sure of that she would set the dynomite as best she could. Which sadly included alot of guess work.

"Okay we are ready. Is there anything you want to go over with the custodian before we do this?" Jenny looked over at Riley and awaited her answer.

 

[Ubberific]

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"Not really." Riley smiled lightly throwing Jenny another dinamite stick "Alright it's your show." she'd grin wickedly, clearly putting the responsibility for the explosive to the heroine.

Still Jenny could only guess how these damn things worked, placing them about by guesswork she'd step and look over her handywork. Each side had an equal number of dinamite sticks... but thats it.

As Jenny considered her next move, the constant grinding of steel against marble from behind them got her attention... just as Rileys "Wait... if we blow this up, those things will surely swarm us..." not to mention Jenny didn't really know how powerful the explosive material was... or how to activate it safely.

"Damn persistant buggers arn't they." Jenny looked back into the custodian's chamber. "Custodian do you have a way to defened yourself from being attacked?" Maybe they could shelter in the chamber and let the defenses if any deal with them creatures.

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

Though Jenny couldn't see far down the hallway, from the sounds of steel scrapes against the marmur, the headless knights were still exactly where she last left them.

Calling out the chamber would only make Jennys voice echo, the moment both of the girls stepped outside the custodian was gone.

Meanwhile, Riley fixed a few of the dinamite sticks to a more orderly fashion and grinned at Jenny "Ya know, I've never ignited any explosives. You sure we're gonna do this?" she'd glance to the numerous sticks "Just how powerful are these things?"

Spoiler

Add Jennys decision whether to ignite the TNT's

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

"Im not sure but I think with this many we might collapse a big part of this passage. Before we blow it we might want to find another route out of here. That door should hold a moment longer." Getting up Jenny procceeded in a rush manner to look for another exit before igniting the boom sticks.

 

[Ubberific]

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

Riley looked to Jenny curiously for a moment before smiling "Alright, I'll wait here." the trickster smiled casually and ignited her flying lantern to a greater degree. Seemed the previous encounter with the ghost hadn't fazed the mage too much...

Still it was just one hallway, so Jenny wouldn't go too far. Looking through her options, the only other passage was into the blood chamber, otherwise the heroine would have to go past the headless knights and look around. If the complex followed the three straight path layout there was only one other complex she hadn't explored to the north of the entrance.

Spoiler

Possible paths:
Blood chamber, The Construct chamber.

If passing through the headless knights:
Back to the barracks, the entrance/exit, unknown path to the north.

Re: Dark Secrets (ranger) GMed by Ubberific

nothing but dead ends here they would have to pass the knights. Sighing Jenny returned. "Okay so we are in a bit of a pickle. No way out excpet threw the headless trio." Jenny looked down at the doors they would work themselves threw soon. "I want you to hide in the custodian chamber here as I bait them down the hall. Once we got them where we want them we can set the bombs off and kill two birds with one stone. Or rather three zombies with bombs. Sound good?"
