Numenera 03-09-25 Jade Colossus

glass pyramid

  • We try to look down the hidden hallway that k'Mort opened but we don't see shit
  • k'Mort can't fit so he hovers horizontally while Yuzu pushes him down the hall. Ludin leads the way
  • Wranna’s Way leads from the Ballarad Colossus entrance all the way to the Mouthof Exaltation. The route is named after the explorer who first mapped it. Wranna is awell-known jack in the city, though she hasn’t been seen lately.
  • As we walk further down the hall the ceiling lowers and lowers to the point that we have to start ducking
  • Yuzu trips on her cloak while pushing k'Mort and sends him flying downs the hallway.
  • Ludin sends Saturnalia to the end of the hallway where it narrows to a point. There she falls down a hole to another chamber that is filled with hundreds of eggs about the size of a human fist. Around the room there are similar sized entrances to the one Saturnalia entered.
  • An egg enters the room through one of the other tunnels
  • Ludin recognizes them as Dritch eggs
  • Saturnalia checks out the tunnel that the egg came from and its similar to the one we are in but this one angles up
  • While changing state k'Mort flails around and knocks part of the wall off
  • Ludin try's slamming a midnight stone into the side of the hallway to create a doorway but it doesn't work. Ludin does get a temp bonus to intellect edge for an hour and a free healing roll
  • As we try to head back to then entrance we notice that the hallway is longer than it was when we first walked down it. We also notice that the doorway we entered the hallway in is gone and was replaced with a doorway to a room with a yellow powder floating in the air
  • The powder smells metallic and is seeping from the walls. On the floor there are outlines of heavy machinery that has since been removed
  • A connected room is still filled with machinery from wall to wall. They are infused into the structure of the colossus
  • Yuzu climbs over the top of the machinery and sees there is another room on the other side of them
  • Ludin prys open one of the machines and finds a leather pouch with the letters BR enbossed on it. Inside are 3 pills, Red (cateye), liquid god and glitter (telepathy), and neo green with something inside (stim).
  • The next hallway is lined with metallic machinery whirring away doing some unknown task
  • k'Mort examines the machines
  • In the next chamber there is a 12ft tall metallic pyramid which is glowing. No other entrances. One one side is an eye like protrusion. This eye matches the one on the Jade Protector necklaces we all have
  • On closer examination k'Mort notices it its not actually the same but slightly different
  • Yuzu touches the eye causing the eye to blink
  • Ludin uses Link Senses with the pyramid. He senses that the space behind the eye is empty
  • The pyramid is radiating a faint bit of heat
