It didn't take long to strip the magical items off of the many women; and what a number of just<em>gems</em>they got!  Kass was, in all honesty, rather impressed already... but she had to remain focused on the job at hand!  Done and having cast a number of spells upon herself and her companion, she was ready too for what may come.<br/><br/>Of course, what she saw wasn't what she was expecting... a storeroom filled with boxes and barrels?  I looked to have had a doorway but was now appropriated for otherwise, there were pillars and something on top... and what was that large circular thing... and did it just jiggle?!  As Aria relayed what she saw, Kass' blood ran a bit cold.  The spell, as she told aria, was a prismatic sphere... something only the most powerful of wizard's could cast with ease, and to make it permanent like she suspected it was... well, that was no simple feat either.  It was extremely deadly, and as she thought about it, she realized there was little she could do to get into it... but that pillar... perhaps the pillar could be made to fall and reveal whatever was on top of it; she knew that nothing could move<em>into</em>a prismatic sphere, but she also knew it was stationary... but was it stationary in the air or on the ground?  Perhaps if they 'dropped' the pillar it would bring out whatever was held inside the sphere... otherwise, it would bring the sphere down on that... blob.<br/><br/>...and inside the blob was the statue of Adon!  But Kass couldn't see it... because this was no mere shape... it had to be an ooze!  Kass all but swore; her invisibility and stealth was practically useless now to the blind creature working by scent and sound.  That also meant that perhaps their weapons wouldn't even damage it anyway... but again the idea of the statue came to mind, and perhaps they could drop it and kill the creature and, hopefully, spare the statue... it was a shot anyway.<br/><br/>She relayed her knowledge to Aria in it's entirety, not moving unless the ooze itself moved, and then she asked a<em>very</em>important question...<br/><br/>"Aria, is the statue<em>still</em>magical?  Some oozes eat magic... and if that is the case our mission was for<em>naught</em>..." she said, her voice measured and cold "Also tell me if the ward changes... if this is an alarm spell of some such a thing, we may alert the man or woman who cast such a spell upon this place, and that could be very bad for us with the ooze as well.  Finally, do you think we could take out the pillar, use it as a weapon, more or less by dropping it on the creature in a way that would not harm the statue?"<br/><br/>Would you care to tell me what sort of ooze it is?  Not any I recognize... but then again I've never really encountered them... it's not one that will split when I cut it, will it?<br/><br/>Regardless, how thick is the pillar, and even<em>more</em>importantly, how much damage would I have to deal to it to cause it to fall down at an angle onto the ooze?  Kass has a bunch of sonic spells capable of damaging solid objects with ease... so what would I need to do to drop it?  Thought I'd get creative with this thing ^_^<br/><br/>Thinking of 2 things: dropping the statue on the creature to try and kill/harm it, and also trying to drop it because as far as I know the prismatic sphere prevents all things incoming, but doesn't prevent a solid object from leaving the spell.  Would be an interesting way to get to what's inside of it without having to dismantle the prismatic sphere, especially since I<em>can't</em>without a mage's disjunction or seven other spells... I don't have...<br/><br/>Unless you think it'd be a waste of time in any of that, honestly?
