Into The Catacombs

by Kupiou Hellkite Thalatte

After relaxing in this magic mansion after the failure of killing that blue robot a new adventure begins. Since the group's broke we, not me, went to the guild for work. We got a quest for investigating some burial grounds to the east. That robot finally did something useful for me in carrying me to the job site. It was hilarious watching Zee shield surf a mirror all the way to the site. Macro and I were bewildered by the failure of an archeologist we were presented with. I've never been to catacombs since that is a place for the dead. We entered the burial grounds and before entering the catacombs Macro sent his newest "creation" scouting. We eventually enter the catacombs and come across four murals. Each depicting one of the seasons. After Zee planted the seed I wanted to freeze the ceiling above it then melt it with fire. Too bad I didn't get to play with fire this time and they went with the safer choice of pouring water on it. It grew into a sapling. The spring mural opened leading to a new path. Zee then grows it into a tree. The summer mural opens. I wanted to burn the tree's leaves off but that bird blew all the leaves off. The fall mural opens. I finally got to freeze the tree opening the last mural. Macro sends his beetle to scout the north and east paths. Apparently the archeologist group is dead in the north path. Less cooks now. The east path looked like a trap so no one else entered. We went west and encountered a few traps. Ice solved the problem. We later enter this room with a huge drop-off accompanied by a platform in the distance with a door. There were smaller platforms in-between the two platforms, but I'm not about to die like this. So, Zee and me stayed behind while the others went on their marry way. Later Macro pops out of a portal with a shit load of gold. I was tempted to enter the portal, but there's a curse so no. There was a crack leaking black liquid. I froze it. While the other were still looting the place when a slime tried to kill Zee. The turtle ordered me to freeze it, but luckily Zee removed the slime from herself. She kills it then there's one on my back. I quickly threw it off my back into what I thought was a bottomless pit. The slime returned only to be killed. More slimes died before finally they return. The robot was all kinds of fucked up and was being carried by another robot. We leave the catacombs with a good amount of loot. The client asks for the treasure and we gave him the gems he wanted.
