(That spirit you're hanging out with is SERIOUSLY creepy, Gourd. Seriously.)

"Mm, well that healing went... okay. I could have done better...
What?! A room with a door on the ceiling and floor? That's quite bizarre. I wonder where the door on the floor leads to? I think I'll go see!
Zuko, since you, ah, didn't seem to hear me, I'll ask again: do you think casting Soak on you again is a good idea?"

Edit: This page break is brought to you by PageBreakers, breaking pages since 1986.

That's what spending who knows how long tethered to a black rock and constantly being harassed for your life forces by lost souls inside a forest of mist with no one around does to you, Wes.
"Why don't we use regular water on him?"

I say looking at Wes.

"It's basically the same effect and less dangerous."
You really enjoy making me look stupid, right seiromem?

-----------------

After an attempt of exploring the room that resulted in epic fail, just then I heard what Wes was saying. Then, I answered:

"Huh? Oh, sorry Wes! I couldn't listen you because of the sound of my brain getting stunned... But I think Razuna may be right, one of our Filled Canteens may have more chances of cure this burns... I think..."

After that, I say to Kairy while looking at the room with the altar:

"Hey, Kairy: Do you think we should inspect that room first? And for we, I mean you and the others. Because for now, I don't think I'll be very useful with the exploring..."
@Wes I kinda like him. I think he's funny.

Got any Dexreth amulets?

I agree wih Zuko that we should inspect the room with the altar first. Let's save the more complicated options (being the room with the many doors) for later.
"Oh, alright, let's checl the room with the altar first then."

Yeah, ho ahead and use a Filled Canteen, Zuko!
Soooo, anybody agrees that I use Zuko's Filled Canteen to wash his face?

@Neversilent: Why the "a" in "altar" is underlined?
Seiromem

Because I misspelled alter in the post.

You can make your own decisions! Do what you want! It's just splashing a little water in your face!

EDIT: You underestimate the size of your canteens.
I grab the Filled Canteen in my backpack and then I say:

"Well, it's just my only source of drink, I have nothing to lose!"

I use whatever quantity of water I need in the Filled Canteen to wash my face and heal my burns.
Awright let's check the room with the altar first.

No roleplaying sorry.
Tell the spirit to pull the levers in the order right, left, middle with a rock on the offering table.
I mean, what else do we have to put on the table?

If you could translate that to barks I'd appreciate it~<3

You have the marked thing to put on the table, did you forget?
Oh, hey, I did forget! Let's use that instead...

Pulling out his canteen Zuko pours some water on his face, curing him of his burns!
His Canteen is now filled 9/10!
Then everyone enter the altar room. It's a simple set-up, thee torches at the points of a crown symbol. Two sets of parallel lines come from the bottom of corners of the crown and eventually split into circles.
While inspecting it, Razuna notices a crack in the back wall, but before he can do anything else a Shadowy Being spills out of the crack! It splats on the floor and takes the shape of... A guy. His eyes are red and his beard is white, the rest of him is shadow.
"Helllooooo! Wouldn't you know, wouldn't you know, After 120 years I have customers! Not just one! What can I do for ya, eh? Enchantment? Supplies? Go on now lay it to me straight! Oh, but, uh, if you don't got the CEIL you don't got a deal, get me?"
...
Fell free to freely ask questions, he'll answer them separately until an action is submitted.

"Understand doggie? Huh, do ya!?"
Bazyli then looks at the spirit patiently.
"I'll assume you did! Let's put this on there then..." The creature floats over and places the Thing on the altar. "Now, what order?"
"Bark, Bark, Bark!" Then a pause.
"Right is always right, indeed!" The spirit says as it floats p to the switches and pulls the one on the right.
"Bark!" and a pause, the spirit floats over to the left and pulls on the left lever.
You go to bark once more but the spirit flips the middle switch before you can.
"That's that then! Oohohoooo my, you are a lucky doggie!" THe spirit says the glyph on the door flashes rapidly, then the entire door fades away.
"Come on now, we're almost there! Almost to life! TO FREEDOM!
YEEEEEEEAAAHEHEEEEESSSS!" The creature is about to charge into the tomb when you emit a growl of caution.
"Huh?" The spirit says as it stops. It then looks in the doorway more closely and hears a giant footstep. Then another.
"Ah, your dog hearing exceeds my own, thanks for that little guy!"
The spirit back up 30 meters and faces the doorway.
"He'll have quite the surprise for him when he exits the tomb..."
The spirit puts it's hands above it's head and ice crystallizes from the air into a ball. The ball starts to grow larger.
Immediately, the steps increase in pace frighteningly.
"Oh boy, he doesn't sound happy! You're gonna have to fend him off while I charge this attack dog! Hm, I should name you something..."
Then the guardian emerges. Rounded edges, green glowing gylphs and a human-like body of stone. It's head a lump with a giant, menacing eye and it wields a staff.
It quickly scans both of you and targets the spirit. It raises it's staff into the air!

"Oh, cool! Well, I don't exactly have that much CEIL, but I may be able to buy something... What do you have for sale?"
Seiromem
I would have more makerscore If I did things.

The shadowy man lunges straight in front of Zuko and eyes him with malice.
"I have what you need. Now buy somethin'."
That guy was scary and I didn't wanted to see what happened if I got in his bad side, so I said:

"Okaaay, then... Do you have a helmet I could use?"

P.S. : What was the Valkinite Ore for again, seiromem?

To quote the wise Haeyuna
"Ahhh, what you have here is Valkinite. It's used to make some MAGI armor, however the paltry amount you display to me is hardly enough, you could make a Valkinite helmet or boots, but nothing more. This ore is very hard to come by, and the only way to forge it is with an aptitude in magic! See, what you do is enchant the ore itself with whatever you want, those grey bit change color when enchanted, and then you can melt it down into mysterious bars. The metal is unknown, what is known is that the metal displays a powerful aura of the element you enchant the ore with. The metal's strength depends on the type and power of the enchant. A simple Demoni enchant means it's medium armor with a resistance to Demoni and defilement, but be rather weak."

"Helmet? Oh, I love headgear! What kind of qualities, hmmmm? Hard? Magical? Oh, I've gotten ahead of myself! How much CEIL do you guys have? That way I won't suggest anything that's more than you can pay."
"I have like... 90 CEIL. Is there something worth that price?"

P.S. : Wait, I don't get it... If my armor is medium and that ore makes MAGI armor, then that ore is useless for me then?
