Since it looks like we’ll be awhile, Esra gives the accessible parts of the interior space a thorough search. Taking 20 for as long as it takes.

The long hall that you are in is a crafted stone tunnel semi circular in shape.  The entrance is an illusion from the outside but clear from the inside.

The sides of the tunnel appear as smooth stone, but upon close inspection is coated with a fine coating of sand grain sized gems.

The two ends have what you assume are similar 'doors'.  The one you can see that leads farther in is stone, not coated in the gems.  The other is open, so you can only see the edge of it in the ground and the grooves between it and the in place floor.

Can I use appraise to tell what type of gems?

Its not a colorful one, but other than that its hard to tell.  They have been ground down to a fine grain.

Rano asks Wirlpakura: "Does sorcery have any advantages over wizardry in these lands that have been overtaken with wild magic? I'm curious because you mentioned that the last group travelled with a Gremlin because that creature had some control over the magic."

"Yes, I think so."

Whenever Taye contacts us next, I think to him "Do you ever hear movement outside your cell? We've been told there's other creatures lurking about."

Jesse looks at the sword curiously.  "Really?  Can you explain further?"

Not much, I am not an arcane spellcaster.

I hear movement—everywhere—they are coming for me!!! Wait—I hear—nothing. I am... all alone. I will never be rescued. Never. What is your favorite food to eat?"

If you message a little later:  Do shadows have names? I should give them names. Yes... yes, that will help. If I close my eyes, do I still exist? I should ask the Unseen Servant

Is anyone else getting worried about releasing into the world a mentally unstable psion that can explode people’s brains?

Esra is now 300 xp shy of 6th. I need 60 more posts in the next 4 days. Does this one count?
