As Secretmaster and his whiny assisstant make their way into the dark tunnel, she spots a suspiciously artificial mass in the near distance. Approaching it, she sees, withthe aid of Secretmaster's globe, a dark, metallic polyhedral."Vicky, what do you make of this?"
Viconia
"Why, abbil, this is a drow device. A Machine of Lost Souls. Drow magicians use them to imprison magic-users that they have a particular grudge against. They are conscious, but devoid of any sensation. (shudders) A horrible fate."
Attalus
"Yeah, Gal, don't you remember? All sorts of magic-users came out when we operated it. Most of them hostile. Probably, we shouldn't disturb it."
Galadria
"But, this is evidence of a drow presence here. They could be expanding their realm. This is perilously close to Baldur's Gate.Perhaps we should free one of them and question them."
Viconia
"Abbil, the drow put these things where they think that no-one will find them. The fact that it is here should argue that not many come this way. (considers)But, also, it could be a trap, to entangle unwary wayfarers. I agree with Attalus (their glances lock, again, but they look quickly away) We should not disturb it."
