She removes the ring of fire resistance from her left finger and places the one of cold resistance on it. Larry then moves forward to open the door...
As they continue ahead, poisonous fumes fill the air. ~ "Good thing we've these anti-venom rings on!" ~ She grins gratefully at Larry ~ "You didn't think they'd come in so handy now, did you?" ~ The passage extends another twenty feet, before they reach the next room which glows from a distance. ~ "This is it!" ~ she whispers in awe.~ They step in...
Gales of cold wind whip their hair mercilessly and the chilling air bites them to the bones. The walls are covered with ice and they discover that the room is well below freezing temperature. ~ Thank goodness we've these rings on! We'd have frozen to death otherwise... ~ She surveys the room carefully.
It is brightly lit, with a raised platform bearing a coffin. A woman corpse lays with her eyes closed and her hand cupped together as if wishing to hold something in them. Mistral reads the inscription on the coffin aloud ~
If life be joy
And death be peace
I seek my toy
Before I release
This precious prize
Which all covet
Herein it lies
No doubt about that
"What say you to that, Larry?"
(ooc: Sorry, going to eat some breakfast. BRB too)
