=== Day seven, === Ah a nice day it is. The treasure we found yesterday doesn’t seem to be cursed, the skeletons are still dead and no one tried to kill me in my sleep. What this must mean is that it is my lucky day. While Hugh and Tony occupied themselves with getting there spells in check I decided to start exploring the rest of the dungeon. After some exploring it turned out that both doors of our room came out into one hallway that came out into the main room where we fought the crystal scorpions. That leaves just one door and one portal as options for the exit. The last door was a heavy wooden door. Sam volunteered to go first after I had checked it for traps, ''"why not"'' I thought, his large body is bound to set of anything dangers that might be behind the door. Staying a good 30ft behind him I followed invisibly. Behind the door was a hallway that went into a curve. At the end of the hallway was a round room of about 25ft wide with in the middle a large fire about the size of a human and it giggled. Most people would take it as a bad sign to walk up to a giggling fire and pee on it, but then again, most people aren’t 200 pounds of stupid goliath. As expected the fire didn’t like to be peed on and attacked Sam, who tried to hit it as it came at him, ducked out of the way and ran past us. Then the fire came after the next first person he saw. Tony got lid as a torch ran past me and disappeared out of view around the corner. The fire didn’t seem to see me which left me to go explore the room better. In the distance I could hear screaming and a door slamming. It sounds like Tony is burning to a crisp and I am nor lock inside with a angry fire while the rest of my party is probably long gone. Nothing else to do then but look for treasure and keep quiet. In the middle of the room where the fire was when we came in, I found a hole in the ground. It was large enough for a Halfling to go trough and about 30ft deep with some dust or dirt on the bottom. Not really wanting to get stuck in a deep hole with pee of a goliath and the chance of a large fire coming back over it I decided to go check on the hole battle. The fire was still there being held back by the door, however it seems to be winning from the wooden door. I tried covering the hole but that didn’t do any good eider. The moment the fire broke through the door I could hear Hugh yelling something is some wear speech and the fire diapered. I’m not sure why but Tony turned into a hawk and flew down the hole in the floor. Judging from the smell I don’t want to know where he stuck his hand but he came back out of the hole holding what looked like a magical stone. I belief he called it a “Psionic stone”. It looks like we have only one option left to escape from here, the middle lever teleport. After being teleported into a new room I could see what the elemental ment. Probably 16ft tall and 7ft wide was standing on the side of the room a giant statue. On the other side of the room was some kind of dangerous but expensive looking orb. On the right and left side where one door each. Having my fill of stuff that shouldn’t be moving in the first place attacking me, I was more than happy to check out the doors first. The left door lead to a small room with nothing of interest. Tony open the other door and went in. a few seconds later the door closed and we could hear nothing else. When Hugh went to look for Tony he felt a strange feeling when opening the door. Looking into the room it was completely empty except for three levers. Hugh told me to do something, I don’t know what I wasn’t really listening, he went into the room, pulled a lever and disappeared. Sam in the meantime went to check out the statue, who in his turn didn’t like people staring at him. The moment Sam came to close it slap him hard. Judging from the size of the enemy and the sound of the hit this wasn’t a fight I wanted to join. On the other hand there were still two of us and Sam was carrying the magic items I still needed to steal. My hits however didn’t even scratch the statue and Sam was getting beat badly. I healed Sam with my “Belt of healing” but that wasn’t enough, we where no match for this enemy. Seeing Sam fall dead on the ground I ran for the teleport path. Unfortunately the statue wasn’t bound to his room and followed me and killed the elemental who was still pulling the lever. I went back tough the last flash that he elemental made before dying to return to the room where we found the statue. Hugh and Tony still weren’t back so tumbling and dodging I was able to get to the room where they disappeared and pulled the lever. Here I found both of them waiting in a room with 1 door. Not wanting to find out if the Statue could still follow me I opened the door and ran at full speed screaming “RUUUUUUUUUUNNNN!!!!!!!!!!”. While running I told them all that had happened after they disappeared and we kept running for the rest of the day. “Oh treasure and gold, we shall miss you forever. Oh and the mule that was carrying it was useful to.” Where on this island are we going to find someone who will get beaten for us like Sam did.
