> Gustaf: "Be careful and keep your guard up- I see a clear path straight ahead all the way to the end of the room, but the sides are cluttered by all of these pipes and ♥♥♥♥. Dunno if there's anything lurking there."

You follow Gustaf as he makes his way forward and up a stairwell. When you and everyone else get to the top, you're momentarily blinded by bright light.

When your eyes adapt to the new scene, you see that you've arrived on the ground level of the building. The light sandy stone walls are perfectly intact while the massive windows are all blown out, flooding the area with warm sunlight.

Except for glass shards on the ground and up-turned benches, the level looks clear, and almost peaceful.

You pop another fireball into place and notice a pink, fleshy tube hanging out of mist's pocket.

Mist: "I don't know how big it is down there. I'm going to get some medical help quickly with Aucupe, we'll be right back."

Mist leaves, followed by Aucupe.

You again cautiously advance, keeping sharp for any signs of life or danger. As you reach the opposite side of the room, you see another stairwell, and you and your allies head up without any incident. Upon arriving at the top, you're momentarily blinded with light instinctively shut off Firebrand's light.

When your eyes adapt to the new scene, you see that you've arrived on the ground level of the building. The light sandy stone walls are perfectly intact while the massive windows are all blown out, flooding the area with warm sunlight.

A fireball flares to life from John's hand, illuminating the area.

"I don't know how big it is down there. I'm going to get some medical help quickly with Aucupe, we'll be right back."

You make your way through the armory and step outside with Aucupe. Bright sunlight warms your body, making you feel a bit better.

You breath in deeply, and exhale slowly. All is well.

Hakua: "We're at the south end of Nullam right now. Once we get out, we can follow the road east to Luttiim, and if it isn't safe, Magusalto. I don't know what's going on anywhere else besides here, but more teams were dispatched to Luttiim than here, so maybe they're okay."

There are racks of ordinary equipment, such as longswords, halberds, shields, bows, arrows, crossbows, crossbow bolts, plate armor, and chainmail.

More interesting items are a few mage stones, ornately decorated cloaks, and a staff or two.

Gustaf Anorak [ 2 ] = 2
> Kyros: "Sunlight and fresh air. What a relief."

The bat-creature heads towards the wooden double doors at the front of the building and opens them up, letting in more light, and puts hits weapons away.

Kyros: "We've gotten out of the tunnels. Where to next?"

You sit down and relax with the dragon setting itself down beside you, while you reflect on your past experiences: Jumping through portals, killing mutated soldiers, fighting mages, getting fried by your buddy Cihas, messing around with magic scrolls, finding the Black Dragon, killing a giant, and wandering through sewers.

Trying to sum up all your experiences into a lesson, the gears in your mind whirl for several seconds, and suddenly, it hits you:

Fire hurts. A lot.

Hakua: "We're at the south end of Nullam right now. Once we get out, we can follow the road east to Luttiim, and if it isn't safe, Magusalto. I don't know what's going on anywhere else besides here, but more teams were dispatched to Luttiim than here, so maybe they're okay."

> "Sunlight and fresh air. What a relief."

Carefully allowing the Kinetic Sphere to slow down before releasing control, you distinguish the spell and draw Giibi's shortsword in your offhand.

Walking towards the closed wooden double doors and pushing them open, you're met with a grassy field, and not too far off is a short wall. Looks like you're at the edge of the city. The only unusual things in sight is the cracks and rubble around the wall and occasional bodies here and there in the field, but nothing seems dangerous. Putting away your weapons, you relax yourself and address the others.

"We've gotten out of the tunnels. Where to next?"

Hakua, Koa, and Ettiin stand beside you, enjoying the air of outdoors.

Hakua: "We're at the south end of Nullam right now. Once we get out, we can follow the road to the east to Luttiim, and if it isn't safe, Magusalto. I don't know what's going on anywhere else besides here, but more teams were dispatched to Luttiim than here, so maybe they're okay."

The shadow flinches and whines and in the blink of an eye vanishes, dashing away some distance away ahead of you.
