The Wayfarer's Inn

Gaderon mumbles to himself "Cool, it worked this time..." as he drops back down to the ground to join the others.

The heat coming from the hallway beyond the arch is not noticeable to Eilkhan anymore, due to the protective spell that Ahi placed upon her, and so she boldly crosses the archway and enters the hallway behind it. The stench of sulfur, heated metal, and other foul odors is still there though, and she can also still feel the evil and malice everywhere around.

Moving carefully forward, Eilkhan sees that the dark flames that burn with a rust-red light seem to spring forth from the stone of the pillars itself, producing shapes that remind her of prancing, leering devils and writhing humanoid forms. She even hears faint cries of torment and desperate pleas for aid coming from the fire.

The room at the end of the hallway is clearly a throne room of sorts, albeit a dark and gloomy one. Walls and ceiling are pitch black in color, and the double row of burning pillars leads directly towards the massive throne, cut from an amethyst-colored type of stone, on which the creature was sitting until recently. As far as Eilkhan can tell from this distance, there seems to be no trace of it left. There's no one here anymore.

Noting everything she returns, relating everything she saw and heard in the room.

Kherim frowns, with a doubtful look.
"I don't believe it could have been that easy. I think he's playing tricks on us."

Does Kherim's detect evil reach the distance to the throne? If not, he will advance through the tunnel just enough to encompass the throne and then rotate to try and get a scan of the rest of the room.

He goes well armed of course, and ready for anything.

As you all had noticed before, the evil in this place is so strong that it's almost palpable. This place is clearly tainted and marked by evil, and therefore it's no surprise for Kherim that he detects it everywhere around.

Is there no place or direction where that Evil stands stronger?

Unfortunately not.

Sol will concentrate on watching for danger as the group goes forward into the chamber with the vaporized creature.

Gaderon will caste detect invisibility, just in case there is something else in the chamber or the creature has survivied.

You all enter the dark throne room, still very much on your toes because of the evil that still permeates this place. After carefully scanning the room with help of his spell, Gaderon lets everyone know that there's nothing invisible in here.

"Then", Kherim says, "shall we try for the throne?"
