DM Note: I keep describing torches and lighting but I'mma stop doing that now and will just describe instances where it's too dark or dim or you can't see.

DM. ( Korvan & Ra-ul's perspective )

Ra-ul swings the cabinet doors open, having to bend at the knees to effectively reach the handle.

The top shelf contains a yellow napkin blanket that had been laid over it, and a closer look reveals crumbs of, perhaps, some kind of bread on top of it. Leaning to the left of the shelf is a leather book, binded closed by an easily-untie-able rope. The bottom shelf houses a stack of plates, bowls, and cups - in that order - to the right. To the left is a wooden box. The cover of the box is not fully-closed, and as such, Ra-ul can see into it. Kitchen utensils.

He must have been uninterested in what he saw, for he leaves the cabinet to go back to the rocking chair. Sitting down, it becomes apparent that it was not made for an elf his size, or, better yet, an elf at all. Nevertheless, he fits himself into it and begins to rock awkwardly.

( Glim's perspective )

Glim throws open the door, and it slams open into the wall next to it with a heavy thud. So much for stealth.

Immediately, he sees, in the middle of the room, what appears to be an oddly-placed slimy rock , about half Glim's size, except - the rock is moving. Although it doesn't have distinguishable eyes, it looks at Glim as he throws the door open. With no warning, it charges at him mindlessly.

Now, back to the room. It's a small room, with no other exits besides the way he came in. In the back of the room, lies something machine-like that could be further examined once Glim handles the creature? in front of him.

( Entel's perspective )

Entel comes to consciousness in a small room, not knowing where he is or how he got here. There are two wooden doors, one on the upper wall and another on the lower. The walls and such look as if they had been carved from a dark stone.

"What is this place? The kitchen of some dwarf or gnome?" Korvan asked himself, having had a look inside the cabinet and seen the elf try and relax in the too small rocking chair.

He didn't bother trying to identify the makers of the furniture; he knew little of history and culture outside of his own people.

He then decided to open the door in the south of the room, leaning around the door to look into the room beyond before entering. If this was a kitchen, it would be part of a home, and the occupants might still be around.

 

[SecondBreaking]

Glim knew an ooze when he saw one.... or was it a slime.... a gel? No matter, these things were dangerous, people can't just leave these lying around, someone might get hurt! He runs over to a sconce in the room he was just in, remembering that oozes were weak to fire! They have to be, right? How else would you hurt these things? He attempts to pull the torch down from the sconce, intending to use it as a weapon.

( Glim's perspective )

Glim leaves the room, and the slime follows right behind him. Although slower, it catches up to him as he pulls the torch from its sconce, wielding it as a sort of makeshift weapon. When he turns back around to face the slime, it's directly right in front of him and ready to attack.

[Cyan_]

DM. ( Korvan & Ra-ul's perspective)

Korvan opens the door, creeping around the wall. He looks into the room and finds no inhabitants. Instead, he sees a long room with a quern stationed to its left side and a small, ugly-looking farm messily set up to its right. The farm is a clayish soil and bears no crops, or at least any that can be seen aboveground. The quern has specks of flour coating it.

Entering the room, Korvan glanced at the quern and the plot of land within. At first the latter had confused him, but then he supposed that dwarves would need to produce their own food. He couldn't help but wonder how they were able to grow things without sunlight

Not bothering to check if the elf was still following him, Korvan went over to the door on the eastern side of the room, and tried to open it.

With a soft groan Entel sat up, running a hand through his white hair to move it out of his face. Slowly, he stood up, stretching his body slightly before he went through a small series of warm ups to get his body into fighting shape. It always helped to be properly prepared. With a soft sigh, he looked around for his quarterstaff, finding it leaning up against a wall.

Then he noticed that he wasn't in his room at the monastery. The walls of the monastery were also stone, but of a different color, in his sleepy haze, he hadn't noticed the difference. Now that he was awake there was a clear change in color. Looking around, he saw two doors 'What is going on?' he wondered to himself before he began to check the room more thoroughly. His time as a thief taught him to always check his surroundings before moving on.

DM. ( Entel's perspective )

The room is mysteriously empty, besides of himself and a torch in a sconce on the left wall.

[Seraph Darkfire]

"Strange, no dust or even droppings left by passing animals" he said as he finished checking the room. It was very unusual. The monastery had to be cleaned at least once a day. With a frown, he walked towards the upper wall and placed his hand on the door, testing its sturdiness before he moved his head closer and slowly quieted his breath, listening for any sign of life beyond the door.

Either way, he was ready to open the door, as long as it wasn't locked.

Satisfied with his brief nap in the rocking chair, Ra-ul got up to further investigate the contents of the cabinet. He took a deep breath and then began to unravel the knot that clamped the book shut. Once that had been he decided to attempt to read.

Lord0fFate Normally you'd use the Discord link and then post your character there. Unfortunately, it seems that our roleplay is either dead or on hiatus as C Cyan_ has not replied on the thread or on the Discord despite prompting.
