Scene 7: Avernum Trilogy Forum

Scene 7: Avernum Trilogy Forum

Alorael, Erika Maroonmark, WKS, and the baby fluffy turtle enter the forum. Alorael immediately slips off to go collect skribbane plants. The baby fluffy turtle follows him. WKS and Erika Maroonmark search for metal bars. WKS comes across a metal bar that he can't identify, so he puts it into his pocket until someone can identify it.

Erika Maroonmark: Hey! I think I've found something!

WKS: What is it?

Erika Maroonmark: It's a slightly rusty bar of iron just lying here.

WKS: Good. Take it. We need it.

After a bit more searching, Erika Maroonmark comes across a bar of lead. Meanwhile, WKS is sitting on the ground, looking distinctly ill.

Erika Maroonmark: What's the matter with you?

WKS: I don't feel good and I don't know why. Look, my hair is falling out.

Erika Maroonmark shrugs.

Erika Maroonmark: I don't know what it is, either. Oh, look. A bar of silver.

Erika Maroonmark picks it up. While gathering skribbane plants, Alorael notices a bar of gold lying on the ground. He picks it up and throws it as far away as possible. The baby fluffy turtle immediately runs (or what counts as running for a turtle, anyway) after it. After gathering enough plants, Alorael returns to where Erika Maroonmark and WKS are.

WKS: I feel so ill.

Alorael: You must have picked up a bar of uranium.

WKS: Is that what it is?

Alorael: Yes. What's that?

Alorael notices a small key lying on the ground. He picks it up.

Erika Maroonmark: That's probably the key we were looking for! Come on, WKS, let's go try it out.

Erika Maroonmark takes the key from Alorael. The three Spiderwebbers exit. Meanwhile, the baby fluffy turtle is still in the process of fetching the bar of gold.
