[Taocow PBEM] [Everyone Together] Book 3 - Chapter IX - The Sewers

>> need to get closer to tell for sure, and soon enough the spray from
>> the water will remove even that trace.

>> I'm sure he could have gone through any of those other tunnels."

> "I can lay down lines to help?" Alex asks

[Justin]
Justin nods. "That might help." he replies.

> He was prepared to let anyone who wanted to assist him do so as

> [Ted]
> "Was?" the lizard man counters. "I haven't died yet." He hops into

[Justin]
"Sorry," Justin says, "meant the other thing..."
[/Justin]

OOC: Going to kind of make this up and compile it together.

[GM]
While Ted prowls around the boiling waters of this chamber, Justin and
Alex assemble a series of lines to give everyone something to grab on
to.

In short order everyone can safely get into the pool. Sir Prrcyvel and
his men are making a circuit of the chamber looking for any sign of
the creature, or of Louissa. The trick now is to figure out where the
creature went.

Alex can still spy a trace of the yellowish ooze on the largest
outgoing passage.
