I only have 23 HP max, and if that fire will take out 24... :?

Um...can I run through that wall of fire without passing out midway through? If I can, then the Vigor will revive me after a few seconds once I'm on the other side... Or, failing that, anyone have any more temporary HP buffs lying around, or would be willing to carry me through and/or heal me after I pass out?

EDIT: Whoops, never mind, I have exactly 24 HP. It's still going to be buckets of fun once I come out the other side, though...

Ishaq can pass you his belt as it has one charge left if you like, Whistler.

Thanks, though I have one charge left too...I just wasn't going to be able to use it if I was unconscious, presumably. Although I guess I could've activated the thing midway through the fire, come to think of it...

Anyway, moot point now--and mooter point if Andre's Holy Storm gets rid of the problem. :) I'm going to wait to post until that goes through, in hopes that this'll become a non-issue.

Ok so portcullis wise, do any spell casters have acid type spells that can be cast on some of the bars? That way we can then bend them with ease and get out without having to try to open it.......

As Khalil points out our expedition equipment includes

10 kegs of Gunpowder
750ft of Fuses

that should make a big enough bang to blow a hole in Sebua.....

Although we might need some Camel sized ear plugs..... :wink:

Alright, we have the dagger, we may have the breath. We need the tears and the fire. Think? What could each be? I rather doubt the fire of the heart refers to Lia's 'deity', the Heart Beyond the World, but does anyone else think it likely?

Innocent's tears to cleanse it.
Adamant knife to cut it.
Breath of the twice-traitor to silence it.
Heart-fire to burn it forever.

There's the poem again just in case anyone needs it.

I honestly can't think of anything. If the clues are there, then I don't remember them or the significance is completely lost on me.

Maybe the Hellfire is the heart-fire.

Would it be possible to book it up to the Baanou's bedroom, break off a bit of four-poster bed, dip it in the flames, and torch the book, all within a minute or so? If you've got a particularly loose interpretation of the Transitive Property of Phylactery-Destroying, that'd technically be an Ethereal-Symbolic-Heart-That-Is-On-Fire...

Also, anyone feel like waving a raw onion around near Devereux' face?

Blow salt or pepper into a camel's eye, and we have the tears of an animal, usually guaranteed to be innocent.

Check, got that.

We may have this, bottled and all.

Nrrrghh ...! Thoughts, anyone? Anyone? I doubt it's the hellfire, since we don't have it readily available to us.

Do we still have Ulsaon's rat? Wouldn't it be easier to get the tears from it than from a camel? I'll post Ishaq holding the camel's head. If NT says the rat is still with us, then we can try get the tears from the rodent maybe?

Um, rats are tiny. Even if we make it cry, the volume of tears it'd yield would be much smaller than what we can squeeze out of a camel. Also, we'd be more likely to hurt the poor thing than if we try to tap a camel.

As a side note, the only way to tell if you're right about a given component is to use it.... and hope nothing permanent happens.
