8. The way we seek to the Lich, is it through the Archway to the South?

[TristenC]

8. the cold is a bone-deep chill

[Nocturno]

9. Thinking of the doors on the west wall. Does the door on the left lead to the path we seek?
If 9 is a negatory - 10. Does the door on the right lead to the path we seek?
If 10 is also negative, does the patch lead through the chapel?.

[TristenC]

[I'm not sure which doors you mean]

2 doors on the West wall
Oh wait, that is where the spear came from when we opened them?

[those are false doors. there is a blank wall beyond them. only a trap]

[Nocturno]

9. Can the lich be slain with the weapons we currently have?
10. Does the riddle on the floor tell us which colour orb to take?
11. Do we need to put a magical ring in the grinding slot?
12. Will we literally need to fall into pits?

[TristenC]

The response to the next 4 questions results in a luke-warm sensation; indicating uncertainty

===
It seems his contact doesn't have the answer to those

[Nocturno]

Out loud. "Ok, let us see if we can narrow this down a bit at least."
13. Does our path to the lich lead through, the ORANGE orb held waist high, the PURPLE orb at the feet, BRONZE orb held waist high, or the GRAY orb held at shoulder height?
14.Does our path to the lich lead us through the BRIGHT BLUE orb at the feet, the WHITE orb held high above head, the TURQUOISE orb held at the shoulder, or the SCARLET orb held waist high?
15.Does our path to the lich lead through the PALE GREEN orb at the feet, the PALE BLUE orb at shoulder should height, the SILVER orb at the feet, the GREEN orb held high above the head?
16.Does our path to the lich lead through the YELLOW orb at shoulder height, the PINK orb held high above head, PALE VIOLET orb held at shoulder height, the RED orb held waist high, the BUFF at feet, or the INDIGO orb held high above head.

=====================================
Just trying to narrow down our choices a bit with the questions we have left.

About to yeet the group through the wall after this I guess.

[TristenC]

The connection ends abruptly

possibly from uncertainty or from incompatible questions

[Nocturno]

He stands up.

To the remaining NPCs. "It seems that the way to find the rest of our fellows is to go through this wall."

[counterkid]

Tabbi says: " Let me go first." She walks through the wall.

[TristenC]

[tabbi meets the same fate as the others...]

[Nocturno]

Once all the NPCs are through, Van will suck in a deep breath, and hold it as he pushes in.

[TristenC]

Van ushers the others through, one by one. They pass Beyond the wall with mixed waves of determination and trepidation. Once all have crossed over, Van finds himself utterly alone.. Steeling himself, the Dwarf follows.

Vision goes dark as his eys cross the illusory plane and he passes into the unknown. A force pulls uncomfortably at his body as if stretching him beyond the possible world...

Abruptly he snaps back together in a dark place only lit in the faintest measure from above. His Dwarven eyes adjust to find hmself standing near Sorril, Elidyr and Faldair in a pit full of poisoned spikes. Above, at the open mouth of the pit, ge spots the eyes of his brothers, Galan, and even Tabbi as she finishes climbing out. The decorative fresco on the ceiling seems reminiscent of the first Great Hall... in fact, it seems exact...
