[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

There isn't a ledge there this time, as the ground slopes slightly upwards as the group heads through a tunnel entrance and exits the room, following the track.

The tunnel doesn't go particularly far, however.  The track and tunnel both end at a large pile of black rocks nestled in a dead end.



A single black rock at the bottom of the pile is slightly glowing with the dull red color of heat.



"Well look at that!  It's a Charcoal!"



"Hmmm...I wonder if this strange path has something to do with why this large pile of coal is here..."

Upon sighting the smoldering lump of coal, Pyra perked up immediately at the strangely alluring thingy and - if no one minds or stops her - made a beeline towards, not waiting anyone or scoping out the room for danger beforehand. The she demon tentatively hover over the Item for a few seconds, trying to discern what it was and how it was affecting her, during which Marcus' string of observations played out. She looked over at him, her expression weary but curious, and made a circular gesture at the now indentified Charcoal.

"This is burning lump, hot rock is a....Charcoal? What is that, what does it do, and is it safe to pick up and touch too?"

Intensely curious and willful as she was, the brimstone imp had taken to heart that such passions unchecked often lead to doom, peril, drama, embrassment, or so combination of them all, and so sought more information about the radiate lump of fuel before she attempted a closer inspection of it.

His comment on the pile itself is met with only a tired shrug; she was not overly interested in the hows and whys of the mine and it's various oddities, far too burnt out and focused on getting this increasingly burdensome favor of his over and done with. Maybe latter she'd contemplate these mysteries with much more relish and excitement, but definitely not now or soon.
