Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
With her natural ability to telepath to any creature with a language, Ka'Rishta never really learned to pick up on most of the written languages of Prime creatures and so she cannot make heads or tails of it. She looks to see if Ishtareh has any idea.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ishtareth
As with all succubi, Ishtareth is blessed with the gift of tongues. She glances at the sign for a moment, before she realizes that her companion may not be equally gifted. "Speak Home and enter" she offers by way of translation. "Shall I say the word, or should we fly across?" she seems reasonably confident in her ability to carry Ka'Rishta across the gap.Catapultam habeo.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
I would imagine that its the word for 'home' in whatever language that is. They probably hope that any interlopers wouldnt be able to read it. Lets go with the obvious answer, and then try to fly across Ka'Rishta, while knowing the range of Ishtareh's abilities, isnt quite sure about her capacity to carry her, tail and all, she is a mighty load.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ishtareth says the word home in the Giant tongue.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
As you say the word, you see a small flash of blue shimmer on the other side of the tunnel.
And as Ishtareth attempts to loft Ka'Rishta into the air, she finds herself unable to move such a large bulk.Spoiler

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ka'Rishta appreciates the effort, but as she suspected, she is far too heavy for the succubus flying limits. Readying herself, she teleports to the other side of the chasm.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
You appear on the other side of the chasm, whatever it was, had been dismissed with the word.
The tunnel continues further down and then bends, and you can see flickering lights around the corner, painting the corner with a moving tapestry of golds, yellows and reds. Movement can be heard.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ishtareth takes a moment to cast a pair of spells, making each of them invisible before attempting to move closer.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
A human general might consider the use of invisibility dishonorable, but then again, Ka-Rishta is a demon born to the treachery of the Abyss, where you only survive by taking advantage of every resource you have. She nods her thanks to Ishtareh, before continuing to slither down the passage, attempting to be as quiet as possible, and using her true seeing to try and spot an enemy beforehand.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ishtareth casts one more spell (See Invisibility) to keep better track of her leader than the detect thoughts ability she had active would allow. She then follows two paces behind Ka'Rishta also working to keep silent.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Casting your spells of glammer and misdirection, you cloak yourselfs in the magic of illusion and slither/walk around the corner.
"...I told you, get it together, or your going back into the cage!"
Ishtareth feels their minds sooner than seeing them, and then you both see them. A small figure is standing on a overlook of which the tunnel terminates, directing an Ogre, Troll, and Drider, to the side is another humanoid, by the looks of it, an Elf, maybe a caster of some kind. No one seems to notice you until Ka'Rishta slides over a twig in the tunnel and it snaps audibly, and even then, its the Elf, who turns to the empty tunnel with a sudden look of interest.
He begins to cast a spell.

Your choice, you can wait and see what he casts, or go into initiative.

Re: Blood War; The beginning [IC]
Ka'Rishta drops her wand and quick draws her 6th sword to engage in battle.
