Lizuga Manescu Lizuga scowls at the feeling of wet clothes and padding, and squeezes out what she can without removing her armor. Then, she sighs deeply. "I still don't think the woman of the house is home. I think that unpleasant man is in thrall to...an image, of some sort"... [B]

You get the boats and everyone back to the dock. The third boat, seemingly empty, slowly drifts to south-west. Adalbert starts to get his bag's contents dry ASAP. It takes some time. After he does all he possibly could, he checks it for water damage. The old Thassilonian writings are surprisingly fine. His own spellbook though... every page is a mix of what was formerly on the left page and what was on the right page with the page's original content having some precedence, but it's just too bad. Adalbert is not even sure it's safe anymore...

Iris checks the boat. There seem to be scratches by some metallic(?) equipment(?) and some drops and smudges of dried non-ancient blood, but no other signs of recent use. The boats themselves seem indeterminately old, but maybe protected by magic or something...

I don't think Adalbert went swimming with his big collection of books, so just his spellbook and journal? Mechanically, it would be as follows (either one, choose when preparing the spells):
1. Spend 1 hour per page and a spell slot per spell to review the text and try it out. Spend normal gp per page to rewrite it elsewhere. Each spell has 60% of turning out legible and good.
2. Try to prepare spells as is. Take x4 time. Have 50% of all prepared spells fail (10% of that - critically). The result is per spell, not per spell slot (write it down and re-use for this spell).
3. Try to prepare spells as is. Have 60% of all prepared spells fail (20% of that - critically). This result is per spell, not per spell slot (write it down and re-use for this spell). On top of that, each spell slot has 20% chance to fail (10% - critically).

"Well at least there really only seems to be one way to go, so we shouldn't get lost, though it also makes it really easy to be ambushed. I will be in the lead boat, just in case. What is our plan, other than the obvious of negotiating a non-bloody end to this? We can't let them take Lizuga for sure, and maybe we could try to compensate them for, uh, using the body, even though it was not directly our doing, but we clearly can't give it back at this point." Krusk asks the others as he gets his stuff ready and into one of the boats.

[CasualViking]

Lizuga Manescu Still sopping wet, lizuga takes the oars and starts rowing, bypassing the other dock. As they approach their destination, she leans in to whisper to Rakieth. "Whatever happens next, I think you should follow your own instincts, not necessarily follow my lead, or Adalbert's. We might need your perspective".

Rakieth Anlec As he listens to the others he looks to Lizuga and offers a shake of his head. "The body seems to pretty to give back now. Especially as they will be unlikely to have your old one in a suitable condition." Nodding to the south west passage he suggests "It was the way suggested, but expect a trap and be ready to defend ourselves. this place has already cost several of your friends' their lives, it would be a shame if it added our names to that list."

You navigate the underground waterway. It narrows down to something like a dark tunnel, about thirty feet wide with the ceiling some thirty feet above. Numerous ledges line the walls at varying heights. Several of these ledges contain manacled humanoid bodies. The remains are in advanced stages of decomposition, and in many cases are no more than skeletons. Then you discover that the dead bodies are not the only thing that is of note in the tunnel as two large bat-like things swoop at your boats from two of the ledges...

Adalbert Hornwood Halfling Mage AC: 18 HP: 26/26 touch: 14, ff: 15, CMD: 13 Conditions: Anger +1, Mage Armor (4h), Longstrider (5h)) The halfling mage tries to ready a blast of ice-fire as the beasts fly by, but he is stopped by visions of Lizuga being destroyed. Was it again? Or was it just memory? The halfling was unsure. He stumbles and slows as the bats fly by. Adalbert ducks from an inevitable attack and is surprised not to find anyone bitten. If they are not attacking us, they are fleeing. We should prepare ourselves. Spoiler Show Adalbert would prepare a Ray of Frost (dealing Fire damage) but his oracle curse prevents action in the surprise round and has him staggered the turn after. I roleplay this as taking a second to think, then another to slowly turn and gather his thoughts again.

Rakieth Anlec Rakieth ducks as the beasts flap past, a snarled, "Vile beasts, what manner of savagery is filling this place" as he levels his bow pointing at the bats as they flap past.

As the winged beasts fly over Krusk makes sure his sword is in a spot he can easily grab from his seat. "Are they smart enough to scout and try to come back from behind us? I doubt they are putting people in manacles so something else must be around too. I'll focus on rowing, you keep an eye out for them or whatever else might be about" Krusk says, as he puts more effort into rowing, trying to keep up his position in front of the boat Lizuga was paddling.

[u-b]

The creatures fly around in circles, but no longer pass any closer than they have to, given the width of the cave. Soon you see the cave widening to the "north" into a large and well-illuminated area. The flying things do not go there and instead leave you be and perch on two last ledges. The illumination of the enormous underground lake you are entering comes from phosphorescent lichen and fungus cling to the stalactites above, reflected by the waters below to make the walls of the cave dance with a pearlescent shimmer. You are welcomed by the voices in your heads, suggesting you to proceed to the beach to your right, dress your best according to your position as visitors, which means no weapons, no armor and no magic gear, then await the summons.

Iris Iris simply lets out a low grumble as she concentrates on the voice in her head trying to get a gauge on it. Spoiler: sense motive Show Sense Motive (1d20+13)[31] - looking for any implicit threat, signs of bluffing and overall confidence. Is it the demon-man who is speaking telepathically to us, or are we unsure?

Adalbert Hornwood Halfling Mage AC: 18 HP: 26/26 touch: 14, ff: 15, CMD: 13 Conditions: Anger +1, Mage Armor (4h), Longstrider (5h)) And why don't we just dress ourselves WITHOUT our trousers, as to make the upcoming rectal humiliation easier on the fabrics of our clothes? If you are such a powerful sorceress, there is little reason we need to remove our armor. I shall agree to your other terms, Sorshen. Adalbert drops his wet backpack and with a few cantrips he dries himself and the others before enchanting his pipe with a light spell.

[u-b]

The voices seem pre-recorded and they don't change in the slightest to react to your responses. Iris can tell the phrasing is very well thought out and even augmented by magic. Not the demon-man, that's for sure, though the general principle is, of course, the same. By the time you land of the beach, the voices have faded, but the possibility to do as suggested obviously remains...

The beach is brightly enough illuminated by the large amounts of lichen on this cave’s walls here. Two other rowboats are beached on this sandy shore. Two dry tunnels head off to the east, while to the west the waters of the lake widen into a much larger cavern.

"Hmm, so the voice seems to be a magical recording of some type? If the original builder isn't here, which given the age is likely, they at least still have some form of power around. They will clearly know we're coming, and have a pretty good idea of what we're capable of, but this area doesn't look like that many people have been around lately. Can you make out any tracks and how many of what may have made them going down each tunnel?" Krusk asks as he goes to check the condition of the other boats and if it looks like they've been there long.

Iris Iris shrugs out of her backpack and places it in the base of the boat, together with her bow and aspergillum.

"I mean, that's a reasonable request. We don't want to cause offence if there is a chance they can aid us."

Adalbert admonishes Iris. Like a magical butler he just dries and cleans her soiled clothes with the tap of a finger. Off we go. But this time I am not taking point. If she wants anyone, it would be Lizuga, so Krusk? Rakieth? Go on ahead.

Rakieth Anlec Rakeith happily hops out of the boat onto the beach with a low crunch of gravel. "Well I'm glad we are here, although Iris" he adds looking at the young woman, "it seems a strange time to change for a party". At Adalbert's words he nods, "Give me a moment" he adds as he scans the beach and the cave they are in, taking advantage of his sharp eyes that can see well in the dim and the darkness.

Looking at the beach and the boats, Rakeith can make good sense of the following facts. First, the boats are regularly used, including being used for fishing, as there are some fresh-ish fish scales here and there and some residual smell of fish. Second, the boats are regularly approached along the beach from, well, a solid cave wall in the northernmost part of the beach. It does not take a genius to conclude there is a secret door there and Rakeith can propose more than one way of how it possibly could be activated, but refrains from trying any of them at the moment, until he receives a nod.

I can proceed with the part in the caves if you don't want to try secret door right away.

"A secret door? Good thing you're not relying on me to find things, I didn't notice anything. Did any of the tracks seem like they came from our demon friend? So it looks like the majority of travel is coming from the secret door, so I think we should check the caves first. I think if I've got my bearings straight, we came around this part of the cave, so there can't be too much space in these cave paths. Let's check them first. Let's set up one of the boats against the door, so if anyone opens it, it will fall and hopefully make enough noise that we can hear it. Anyone have any spare pans or similar we can stick on top for more a better clang if they fall?" Krusk comments, then starts to move the closest boat against the door and one done will head to the cave along the back wall.

[Spore]

Adalbert Hornwood Halfling Mage AC: 18 HP: 26/26 touch: 14, ff: 15, CMD: 13 Conditions: Anger +1, Mage Armor (4h), Longstrider (5h)) Secret door could mean trapped, and we took an icy bolt to the face today. After you then.

Rakieth Anlec Rakieth grins as he finds the door and then with the stave of his bow draws a rough semi circle in the sand to mark its location. At Adalbert's words he nods. "I agree, let us clear the caves before we head into the door. We don't want another chilling encounter." he adds dryly. he heads to the cave, merging with cave wall.

You see three berely dressed female bodies lying face down in the pool of water that is about 5 feet deep. They seem to have been physically well-fit, but then got themselves badly wounded all over, with no particular wound seeming very deep or lethal all by itself.
