Ceutinde winced at the pain and gladly took Zavier's hand as he led her out. "Did you not hear it?" She replied once they were outside. "Thalia and I are an unauthorized native species." She wanted to spit on the ground at the idea, but propriety kept her saliva in her mouth. "No elves allowed in to see the grand human experiments on mist-creatures. Wonder why? Might be we'd disapprove of the junior species playing with things that can't be understood."

Kjell caught up with the main party, followed by Elise, and walked straight into the room Nigel had pulled the lever in. "Fuck's sake," she grumbled as she got burned again, quickly stepping back out to where Ceutinde and Zavier were standing. "We have about a hour and a half before whatever the hell a 'lunar sanitization' is occurs," she announced loudly.

Thalia looked around the room as she was getting sun burnt, “I doubt it is anything so considerate, more likely we’d not approve because they were experimenting on us in some way, and our higher propensity for magic.” She summised, and looked around for any kind of markings she could decipher,”if we have an hour and half, then we should hurry and move on, what happened to trigger this?” She asked Kjell.

“Dunno,” said Kjell, shrugging. “Probably this?” she gestured vaguely at everyone roaming around in the halls.

“Now you’re here, we were hoping to use the magical abilities of 3veryone to open the door,” Thalia said to Elise mostly, “I can’t do it alone this time.”

Elise nodded, then looked at the chained creature with a puzzled expression, then she looked up. “Yes, best to get this over with.” She turned to follow them up to the vault’s door.

Herneiros was deeply unsatisfied with what he had found, but turned to join the other sorcerers. "I have wandered the Mist since before I could walk..." He growled as he moved towards the vault. "And never have I seen a more unnatural place than this..."

Justine went to Ceutinde’s side, getting out of the way of the casters. “Are you alright?” Her eyes were wide with concern.

She looked to the others including Herneiros, “agreed, this place reeks of death, and we’d do well not to disturb as much as we can, to that end, I’d like all magic users to help me in they can, it may be that a combination of disciplines are needed.”

Ceutinde smiled at Justine's resurfacing and placed an arm around the smaller woman while she turned to head back up the stairs. "I'm all right. Felt like it was more of a warning than anything else. At least at first. What about you? Seemed as though your sister was here for longer than usual."

At least at first. What about you? Seemed as though your sister was here for longer than usual." Justine leaned her head against Ceutinde’s side. “I’m fine. At least I’m all in one piece this time. Sometimes she isn’t so kind. So what kind of a place is this, other than a prison for monsters?”

"Temple, prison, laboratory? Some combination thereof? I don't know. Makes my skin crawl, at any rate. But they clearly didn't want us knife-ears getting in too far." Ceutinde glanced down and smirked at the contrast of Justine's show of tenderness, leaning up against the absurd dominatrix bodice, before quietly asking a question. "When she's...leading things, how much can you perceive? Out of professional interest."

Herneiros nods to Thalia. "My power is at your disposal. The faster we are through this, the better..."

Zavier walked over to them then set the bauble down in front of the vault. “This is supposed to help open it, but it’s been useless since we walked in here. If we suppress whatever Magic’s holding it down we may be able to get it to open without much trouble.”

"Where did you get it?" asked Herneiros suspiciously.
