Isla looked at Adykor. you obviouslly have never been to the court of Lord Istarix.. gossip sauys is that is his punishment for disobedient daughters.. there have been allrgatrion against his family about such matters for years, but there never has been any proof found..My father doesn't care much for him, as you might imagine.." Isla replied.

"The people under him would rise up and revolt if they heard of that" Adykon said. "He must keep it a secret very well, because no Dracon with the slightest sense of decency would let it continue. Surely he would be deposed by one of his subordinates."

Dracon Lords hold immense poower over thier subject. Any revolt would be supressed by his forces. However, their opinion of thier lord is not high, and I thionk they know of the "pairings" they just keep quiett as so not to be hushed up and locked away in his dungeons.. " Isla replied..

"Impossible." Adykon said. "He would have to be using some sort of mind control spells or something, because, as a soldier and a mercenary, I know that the Dracons who make up an army would rather commit murder than to tolerate such an act of unnatural-!"

"Can we change the subject?" Selturma said. "We ARE supposed to be going somewhere, right?"

Yes, we do have a youth among us.." Oisla replied.. they had been walking during thier talk.. as the steps continued to climb down.. finally leveling off. in front of a door, which was closed shut..

"Do you know what is behind this door?" Adykon asked Isla. "It seems like it isn't too sturdy... I might be able to smash it open..."

"No!" Selturma exclaimed "It might be trapped. You males always think with your muscles..."

Nick22 · **Reply #2186 on:** May 31, 2009, 11:39:17 PM

There is writing on it" She lidfted her staff to it, and read " This door will opwn in 7 ways, but must be closed in eight., Listen to it once..open the hle.."
Open in 7 ways, but closed in 8, its a riddle.." She said. " We have to solve the riddle to open this door..

Noname · **Reply #2187 on:** May 31, 2009, 11:51:40 PM

"Are there seven parts to the door?" Adykon said.

"Do you think we need seven keys?" Selturma added.

Nick22 · **Reply #2188 on:** May 31, 2009, 11:55:30 PM

Keys.. keys.. well there is no keyhole that I can see 'isla said. "but something about keys rings true..

Noname · **Reply #2189 on:** May 31, 2009, 11:56:18 PM

"Maybe it will take seven of us to open the door?" Adykon suggested.

"Do you even know the answer to this?" Selturma asked Ilsa.

Nick22 · **Reply #2190 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:02:08 AM

I thinking.. IT'll cometo me.. Listen.. listen. i'm an Idiot1 Its music!' Isla exclaimed. In Music there are 7 major keys, and there are 8 notes in iin a octave, which you close by repeating the noted do. "

"I don't know if any of us have a musical instrument" Adykon said.

"I can dance and sing" Selturma said "But I cannot play music."

Nick22 · **Reply #2192 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:09:42 AM

Sing in easch of the 7 keys A B C D E F G, and I think The door wil open" Isla said.

Noname · **Reply #2193 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:12:47 AM

Selturma did so, and her sweet voice echoed around the walls of the temple.

"That was very good, Selturma" Adykon said "But, did it work?"

"I wonder what will happen if Rex heard that" Selturma thought.

Nick22 · **Reply #2194 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:14:16 AM

the door began to shake and it swing open. " Excellent!' Isla Said, Giving Seltuma a hug.. " You are a wonderful singer... Do yiou take lessons..?"

Noname · **Reply #2195 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:24:57 AM

"I was trained by my adopted mother" Selturma said "She also taught me how to dance. My adopted father trained me in the ways of martial arts, in case you want to know."

"She trained you well indeed" Adykon said. "We should go back and get the others. If this truly is the way to the statue, then we will need all of the help we can get."

As they started back through there was a loud rumble as debris began falling in front of them in a loud earsplitting roar! " Can't go bacL! We need to move! " Isla said.

Noname · **Reply #2197 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:31:05 AM

Selturma charged forward, just as a major pile of debris fell behind her.

"Selturma! Watch out!" Adykon said as the debris fell with a loud crash!

But it worked. Although she was cut off from Adykon and Isla, Selturma was now on the path back to the camp. "I'll be back for you! Don't worry!" she said to them, hoping that they could hear her through the rubble.

"Can't you use your magic to blast a hole in this rubble?" Adykon asked Isla.

Nick22 · **Reply #2198 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:39:20 AM

Not through this amount of debris. " WE can't wait for her.. we must press on.."

Noname · **Reply #2199 on:** June 01, 2009, 12:41:01 AM

"The two of us don't have enough power to press on" Adykon said. "We don't even have enough power by ourselves to take down those statues we faced earlier. We will have to find another way back, or wait here until the others blast their way through."
