Grim_

Grim asks for an audience with the master and then describes what he saw asking "exactly what is this?"

I summon the cart and cold-fire stallions and go to the ivory tower (Hey Icu do me a favor and ask about the guardians).

Grim notes the area in which the "portal" is in before continuing to pace back and forth (how far away time wise am I from the ivory tower?)

Grim attempts to enter that world. But before that he checks if the sphere has gained significant power.

Grim continues pacing while he tries to activate the ring of nethersee.

I put on the ring and look around.

I pay the man and then leave to continue pacing.

I ask him "how much for the ring?" If it is less than 1,000 gold I buy it.

I say "Wonderful weather we are having. May I inquire upon your wares?"

Grim continues pacing back and forth through the forest.

Grim paces down the road in constant contact with the life sphere he stops when the miniscule change in energy happens.

Grim looks for the biggest tree in the forest. When he gets there he places the life sphere near it and examines it for a difference.

Grim scans the area under his feet again with geomancy before pacing back and forth through the forest.

Grim goes back to the road and starts going back through the woods. When he is done he checks the life energy in the life sphere.

Grim continues walking about periodically checking the life sphere.

I cover the nests with a layer of stone and then pull myself out using my grappling hook.

Grim scans the hole with geomancy. If there is nothing more to it he pulls himself out with his grappling hook. If there is more to it he continues down.

...Blast Grim continues walking around.

Grim examines what he has found.

(Do I detect a chance for a justified massacre?) Grim continues looking for animals to kill and when he finds them he disposes them in a manner similar to the wolf.

Grim attempts to bind the wolf down with geomancy. If that is successful he places the crystal near it and then kills it.

Hmm... Grim starts looking around away from the beaten track.

Grim looks around in daylight to see if there is any hint of the life altar.

Grim examines the life crystal for any traces of new energy.

4/0 against.
