Most of the party is currently outside the high council's office in the Temple of the Moon (not the Temple of Luna ) and have learned that there is a secret tunnel that goes under the walls protecting and Forsaken District and under the undead that roam the district. This tunnel connects the Temple of the Two Sisters (located just outside the Temple of the Moon) and the Temple of Luna (located in the Forsaken District). To get access to this tunnel the party must find three magical keys hidden under the the Temple of the Two Sisters. To get into the Temple of Luna itself the party must have two different enchantments placed on an item. They have gotten the first enchantment from the Temple of the Moon and must now get the the second one from the Temple of the Sun; at least if they wish to try and deal with the bound Shadow.
Brutus and Olga are outside the Temple of the Moon. Dreamkicker, Happyhorn, and Andelia are inside the council's chambers. Everyone else is outside the chamber but in the temple.

"You mean an actual person? You may need several to get the entire Shadow. Failing that you could try to use a different building to bind it in. The Sealers used the Temple of Luna as its prison."
>>511869
Roll to see how much you can hear.
>>511870
Lots of pretty silver designs in the walls. You can hear some low, somber chanting coming from somewhere.

You find a few robed ponies chanting in a large room on the first floor. You'd swear this was a choir, but this can hardly be called singing and there is no dancing at all!
>>511875
You can only here mumbles through the thick door.
>>511876
"I wouldn't trust any bodies in that forsaken place to not be completely tainted already. To bind it into a new building you would need to draw it in first. After that, well, we have the rituals in our archives. We will escort you if you are ready."
One of the mares speaks.
"If you are lucky the Shadow could have become merged with the building itself. It is not wise to count on luck with a task so dire, though."
>>511871
You are greeted at the door by a donkey.
"How can I help you?"

"It all happened long, long ago and the people that survived it weren't too keen on dwelling on what had happened. I admit that I wish we knew more, however."
The library is softly lit by hovering white lights. The council leads the two of you to the very back and through a guarded door. Very carefully they take down an old scroll and set it on a table.
"This is it. Assuming you have at least three other magic users with you you should be able to power the spell."
>>511884
You can see Andelia walking to the Sun temple.
>>511885
You can see a few pegasi tending to the storm cloud over the Forsaken District.
>>511886
You see Bessy preparing to cheer up some somber singers.
>>511888
You've got it down well enough to sing it.
>>511889
"Sure. He'll be meeting with the public for a few more minutes."

They stop chanting and frown at you both, but no one tries to stop you.
>>511892
Thank goodness you finished that language book, otherwise you wouldn't be able to read this. The magic is old and looks difficult to do, especially during what will probably be stressful situation, but you should have no trouble taking the lead mage roll. On top of that there is little room for error and casting will take several minutes to complete, which is bad because serious screwups mean it will need to be restarted from the beginning. At least the components won't be used up until the spell has been successfully cast.
>>511894
You have to wait for a bit for the person inside to finish. After the old diamond dog leaves you enter. A bright yellow unicorn sits behinds a golden desk.
"Hello, child. How can I help you?"
>>511895
You recall hearing that the cloud keeps people out and monsters in. It certainly doesn't look like something you would want to fly through.
>>511896
Just barely. You've not done much reading on the local language, but you are able to spot the parts where necromancy plays a roll.

One of the city's council members went missing last night. There were scrapes on a windowsill and a bit of blood below it, but no body. A pretty standard vampire attack: someone leaves a window open and a vampire unicorn drags them out through it. The pony talking mentions how he had been doing his best to press the Inquisition into taking more action against the vampires.
>>511899
No, and the components don't look to easy to find. One of the ponies notices you paying attention to the components list.
"Those are kept in the Temple of the Sun's basement. We will give you a let authorizing you to take enough for one casting."
The stallion lowers his voice.
"We keep the components controlled because the spell can be used to seal other things, you see. The followers of the lesser gods and concepts petitioned us to do so.""
>>511900
Very.
>>511901
>>511903
You follow her up to the office and see the bright yellow unicorn at his golden desk.
"One moment, mam, I will help you after I am finished helping this mare. And please be polite."
>>511902
He frowns.
"Why would you want to do that? Suicide isn't the answer to your problems."
>>511904
The head council chamber is empty.

"Yes I'm sure it would be a shame if everyone ran around sealing his neighbor's ancestor spirits into various trees and household objects, or whatever it is they'd do with this.
"Thank you for your help. I'll make a copy of this if you don't mind."
I copy the needed info into my spellbook.

"Uhhh, very well. All you have to do is jump the fence when the guards aren't looking. Please don't, though. I am sure you have something to live for."
>>511911
They stop you from copying it.
"We can do better than that."
One of the unicorns touches her horn to yours and you feel the knowledge of the spell pass into your mind.
"That is good for one successful use. You won't be able to write it down though. It's for the same reason we control the components, you see. You will be able to share it with the other casters."
>>511912
You follow him to the back of the library and see him and Happyhorn talking with those three meanies while reading a scroll. The two guards outside the door stop you from entering.
"Halt! This room is private."
>>511913
So show him the dagger and tell him what you need.
>>511914
"You can find the lesser gods and personifications of concepts if you look hard enough. I understand Celestia and her sister did something slightly similar to this spell to a personification in Equestria some time before her sister went insane."

"Leave it alone and hope the spell lasts longer this time. There's not much else to do once it is rebound."
>>511917
"Can I-"
He looks at it, then you, then it, then you, then it, then you again.
"What? How? Yes, I can. One moment."
He grabs it and gallops out of the room."
>>511918
"You mean knowledge about how to open a hidden way into the Forsaken District and the knowledge and means to gain access to the Temple of Luna and the spell to bind the Shadow aren't enough for you? I'm sure the Sun worshipers would be more willing to donate artifacts to help your cause."
>>511919
The guards quints.
"He sounds like he can supervise himself."

"We have already told you we don't want to risk what treasures we have on your endeavor. You can see if any members of our militant order, the Mooniknights, which to join your cause though."
You leave the room and gather Pomelo into a quick hug.
>>511925
You wait. He sure is taking a while.
>>511926
"Lots of people did. Lots of people would, but between vampires in the city and monsters in the forest lots of people can't."
>>511927
"If anything we bet he has to watch over you."
Your eyelash batting is obstructed by Dreamkicker's mane.
>>511908
>Brutus
You see a pony run from the Temple of the Sun to the Temple of the Moon.

Through the front door. He is dressed like a medium ranking member of the church. He runs out a few minutes later and returns to the sun temple.
>>511930
He runs bck into you.
"Sorry! Sorry. I sent a runner to make sure everything was on the level. He will be back soon."
>>511931
"Elections have been canceled due to vampires."

"No, and he should be back-"
A pegasus flies up to the third floor, where both of you are.
"She's telling the truth, sir. I was given this."
The pegasus hands him a letter. The unicorn reads it then looks up at you.
"Very well. Tell us the sort of things you still need and I will see what I can have gathered from the armory. I can't give you too much, in case the expedition fails, but you can have some things. I will enchant your knife while others gather the materials."
>>511938
No idea, but there is no silver there so you can check if you want.

"And they say vampires violate a basic pony right to have all your blood in your own body."
They shrug.
"What're the people gonna do?"
>>511942
You return to the temple. A donkey at the door greets you.
"Hello! How can I help you?"
>>511943
>>511944
The two of you arrive while Brutus is at the door.
>>511945
"We don't have the spell. Think of something more…readily useful?"
>>511946

After about fifteen minutes the bright yellow unicorn returns carrying Andelia's dagger and a glowing sword. Several earth ponies follow him up with packs of materials.
"Here you are. Your key, a sunsword, and the components for one casting of the binding spell."

Pomelo and Bessy begin their search for the Discordian temple. After half an hour of searching the two of you find a likely looking place, but only wind up in the Joke Shop. The donkey behind the counter smiles.
"Has what's-her-name put on that mask yet? Does she even have it? I remember time getting a bit out of synch with that one."
>>512025
>>512026
>>512022
The three of you make you way to then through the forest to the Nature Temple. Andelia leads you all to the paladin barracks where several beefier members of the warrior order train.
>>512024
You gallop as fast as you can and eventually reach the library of the mansion.

Hmm. I've had a thought. If the Charioteer's name can cause a reaction by itself, what would the Shadow do to a Lycan's mind? Should I really be going into this without armor for that part of me as well…?
>>512028
"I might have to beg audience of the High Seed. I trust you'll be fine here for now?"

"My help? Me?"
He starts laughing so hard that he falls over the counter.
"That's not my roll in your story at all! Guess where you are and you can go talk to people who will help."
>>512033
You manage to find the book with their help. The basement looks rather large.
"Sorry, but we aren't sure where exactly you will be able to gain entrance to the basement."
>>512034
The Shadow is from Nightmare Moon. Tirek is the Charioteer.
>>512035
They all grin.
"Free for what?"
>>512037
You explain the situation and are lead up to them.
"We have no relics that can help, I am afraid, but I have the feeling most of our warriors will be willing to help. Because of this we must limit the number you can take. We will need enough left to keep our forest safe."
>>512038
They all look at each other.

"I would have no wish to leave your temple defenseless, but I actually had another concern that plagues me. When our group encountered the werefolk in the mountains, most were in thrall to the Charioteer. Even the mention of his name is enough to provoke a gut reaction in myself, who has no ties to him. I fear for the safety of the others if the Shadow within the ruined temple can strip me of myself as easily as he could."
I'll look to each council member.
"Is there some way my mind and soul could be shielded from such influence?"

One of them magically copies the map.
"You have this, sure."
The map was the only thing in the book.
>>512043
You thrash a few times when you say his name, but the spears of the guards are enough to get you back under control.
"The Shadow is from a different god entirely. It should not affect you and more than the full moon would, and there is no way to shield against that. You should keep your wits about you, however."
>>512045
>>512046
They look at each other.

A bell dings a few times; streamers, confetti, and balloons rain down from the air; and a banner unfolds from the ceiling which reads NOT ENTIRELY DENSE! The donkey pats you on the back and shakes your hoof.
"We have a winner! Congratulations on finally picking this up, great scion of the Laughing One! Now, for bonus points, can you guess what. Is. Be.Hind. Door. Number. One?"
A door flashes into existence with a puff of smoke. It has a bright yellow 1 painted on it.
>>512051
"Bingo!"
>>512049
You go back there. By the time you get back all the others will be waiting for you.
>>512050

>>512056
"Okay."
A few of the beefiest looking step back.
>>512057
"ERRRNT! Try again."
>>512058
"CORRECT AGAIN!"
The door swings open and both you and Pomelo fall through. The door slams shut when you both get back up. From the looks of it both of you are in a massive circus, but the images of Discord everywhere let you know that isn't quite the case. A pegasus wearing armor lands in front of you.
"You pinkos are looking for soldiers to fight vampires and shadows, eh?"

Both. You can tell that this is a temple, despite the circus clowns and the giant tent you are in. There are so many zany things here your head is starting to hurt.
"You guys took your time asking for help. Watch and maybe you'll see what true power is."
Three other ponies, armed and armored, step up to you.
"You ready to go? The Shopkeeper says some of you want to pause and sleep soon."
>>512063
"This is it."
It sounds like there are hundreds of people here, but not all the accents are the same as what you have been hearing in the city.
>>512061
You find them in the barracks with some strong, but dull, looking warriors.

"You guys took your time asking for help. Watch and maybe you'll see what true power is."
Three other ponies, armed and armored, step up to you.
"You ready to go? The Shopkeeper says some of you want to pause and sleep soon."
>>512063
"This is it."
It sounds like there are hundreds of people here, but not all the accents are the same as what you have been hearing in the city.
>>512061
You find them in the barracks with some strong, but dull, looking warriors.

"The Temple of the Two Sisters?"
The sun is high in the sky and the party stands in front of the Temple of the Two Sisters. Attached to the largest members of the party are the materials needed to perform the binding spell to reseal the Shadow, assuming their guesses about the Shadow are correct. The party has acquired a collection of magical weapons, armors, and items. Dreamkicker has obtained a copy of a map of the Temple of the Sisters. The party has also acquired one paladin of Pinkie Pie, six paladins of Nature, and four paladins of Discord. You may all inspect their armaments if you wish.

The Pinkie paladin has a large steel hammer with a squeaky tip on the end. The nature paladins are all armed with weapons that look like they were carved or even grown out of trees and are wearing ironbark armor. The Discordians are all armed with silver weapons and all wearing jester outfits or clown outfits

You have five good Heal potions.

The discordian pegasus shakes her head.
"That building is a hollow shell. The roof and floors have all collapsed. We should search for some way down to its lower level."
>>515971
>>515973
There are two sets of keys. Your dagger is one complete set. The other set has three keys which are all located in the basement of the Temple of the Two Sisters, which you are all in front of.
>>515972
They just laugh.
"He was right, you really are blind for a three-eyed guy."
>>515975
He shifts his hammer.
"Careful. It's still a weapon."

All of you hop over the fence and walk up to the temple. The sun isn't as bright on this side of the fence, and the air is colder. All the trees that used to grow here are dead, and there is no grass growing through the cracked paving stones. It is dark beyond the front door.

The two of you can see a large amount of rubble scattered around inside. There is a small, hard to notice path through it though. Animal skeletons can be seen here and there.

The Nature paladins share your sentiment.
>>515987
Your shield is strapped to your leg where it belongs.

Very spooky. You see a skeleton bird sitting on the rubble inside.

You can't spot any traps or hidden doors as you travel down the path through the ruble. After a few sharp turns the path, more of a tunnel now, stops at a staircase leading down into the darkness.
>>515991
You can't hear anything except the sound of those around you breathing and walking.
>>515992
There is only one path through the rubble, and you follow it while ignoring the death around you.
>>515993
You skip over and ahead of the party and keep off the beaten path as you go. While bouncing along you devour several collections of tin cans and pocket the fishing line that was tied to them. What an odd thing to leave around.
>>515994
The only people that enjoy you attempting to hop over them as all of you travel in single file through the narrow rubble path are the Nature paladins.

Dreamkicker
You look backwards in time. You see vampires coming and going. After that you see a lot of nothing, but can occasionally hear the rumble and crash of collapsing tunnel and rooms. Eventually you see a few very beat-up looking people covering in armor and bristling with weapons leave. A second later you see six times their number dig their way in through the rubble, all as heavily armed and armored. Not long afterwards everything goes dark. The darkness gives way in streaks to show off dead ponies, then the ponies as they were moments before their death: running and screaming.

There is a short hall that leads to two rooms on the right. Each are empty of anything useful, but the left one has vampires in it. To the left is a room that also has vampires in it. Taking the path straight forwards then looping back will let you get around those vampires and also let you get into a room filled with a golden glow. There is no sign at all of the false moonlight you were warned of.

Andelia is at 118. Everyone else is at 122.

All of you charge back through the tunnels, but pull up short. Something resembling a large beam of moonlight is coming out of one of the walls and going into the wall on the opposite side of the tunnel. It is wide enough to completely fill the tunnel, leaving no way through without moving through the beam itself. The beam pulses and seems to move across the hallway, and small tendrils of the stuff poke off of it and slowly wave through the air.
Something about this seems familiar. Perhaps you read about it or were told about it?

"I thought you said we were trying to get through quickly."

All of you follow Dreamkicker through the tunnels, then through an ornate door into room 123. It is warm in here, like a sunny day. A the walls seem to shine with a light of their own. There are stylized images of the sun here, which you all recognize as Celestia's cutiemark. There is also an old collection of blankets and a pillow, as well as a few empty bowls.

The paladins agree.
>>516406
Room 124 has a few old chairs in it.
>>516407
The door will take a bit of muscle to open, but not much. It looks like it isn't trapped. Something pinches your butt.
>>516408
Andelia is in your way, so you cannot investigate the door. You wonder for a bit on how to make ponies to move without asking, like a simpleton. Eventually, you decide that pinching her butt with your magic would do the trick, and proceed to do so.

One of the nature paladins walks over and bucks the door down. The next room is more of a hall. There is another door on the other side. It stretches into the darkness to the left.
>>516412
You cannot help but blush. Maybe all these tight spaces are messing with your head or something.

You break open the door to room 126. It is entirely empty.
>>516417
You carry your torch north and the Nature paladins follow you. The floor, walls, and ceiling is coated with blood, and there are numerous bodies strew around, most without most of their flesh. The few that do have most of their flesh twitch and stand up, blinking milky eyes at the light. They hiss, revealing dozens of needle-like fangs and giant mouths.
"Ghouls!"

>>516423
That is automatic and instant.
You turn into a wolf and try to attack a ghoul but it is too fast and bites you first.
>>516424
One of the ghouls leaps over the paladins and bites your snout.
>>516425
The ghoul that bit Bessy's snout runs over and opens its jaws wide, biting your entire face.
>>516426
Your lamp is ready to use.
You blast the ghoul that attacked Bessy and Pomelo into a wall. It twitches and jerks while its skin sizzles and fries, then falls to the ground Helpless.
Andelia: 2/5 hits

You toss your shield and it strikes the ghoul's head before returning to your leg.
>>516430
The ghoul is gone, but by the time you realize it another has leaped onto your back and started gnawing on you. Its giant needle teeth tear your skin apart and hurt like crazy
>>516431
You hop away from the frying freak and heal Andelia.
>>516433
But then another ghoul grabs her with its jaws and throws her too the ground.
>>516432
You turn on your lamp and dispatch the fried ghoul with a bolt to the skull.
The paladins have been caught off guard by the ferocious ghouls and not not faring well.

You can't get it off of you, but manage to keep it from hurting you anymore as it is holding on for dear life.
>>516436
You leap over Bessy and slam the ghoul off of her in an impressive feat of acrobatics.
>>516437
You miss and a ghoul slips past the paladins to gnaw on your shoulder.
>>516442
You squirm loose of its jaws and tear into it with your own. By the time to revert to a pony you have knocked the ghoul to the ground.
The paladins are having a hard time keeping up with the fast moving monsters, but are slowly weakening them. The paladins themselves are starting to look pretty unhealthy.

You manage to heal the Pinkie paladin. He nods thanks at you before hitting a ghoul with his squeaky hammer.
>>516447
There are six searing flashes of light. When your vision returns the ghoul is no more and the air smells strongly of ozone.
>>516449
A green wave of energy explodes from you and pushes the remaining ghouls back, shredding one.
>>516448
>>516450
You charge one of the two standing ghouls, but trip on a bone and land on your back.
The paladins, now outnumbering the ghouls almost 3 to 1, finally get the upper hoof.

You start rocking Bessy back and forth to try and roll her onto her side. It works, but unfortunately she rolls over you. You are now trapped beneath Bessy, and you think something is broken.
>>516455
You bash the ghoul off of Bessy. After helping her up and notice a very flat looking Pomelo on the ground.
The paladins manage to knock a ghoul down without getting too hurt.
>>516456
You fry the ghoul the paladins knocked down.
One ghoul left.

Pausing soon. Sorry, but my brain feels like mush and I've got to force myself to keep going. Can we try again Monday?
>>516463
No one.
>>516464
You heal her up. The Pinkie Paladin taps you on the shoulder.
"Do you know a prayer of healing, by any chance?"
>>516465
Done, but you cannot raise anything without concentrating harder.
>>516466
You can't get the discordian to swallow your mixture.

Dreamkicker's lamp has 8/15 turns left before it needs a recharge.
All of you are standing in a bloody hallway. The bodies, dead ghouls, and bones scattered around makes it look like this is where the vampires took whoever they didn't drain right away. The Pinkie Paladin frowns.
"Let's get out of here and find those keys."

You can't detect anything living or undead in the next room, but you can't see the room itself either.
>>516807
The room smells perfectly safe, but while sniffing you find some bloody hoofprints leading in and out. Vampires must come and go through this room, so there must be coffins near by. Better be quite so you don't wake them up and make them grumpy.
>>516808
The paladins look around.
"Do you see any diamond dogs around here?"

There are no traps in this room. What there is is a stand that was apparently meant for offerings. there is a good amount of money and other valuables on and inside it.

There are no traps in this room. What there is is a stand that was apparently meant for offerings. there is a good amount of money and other valuables on and inside it.
You look further, and in room 128 you see six coffins arranged around the room, and a small recess in the wall hidden by a drape. Inside are a few small casks of very old alcohol. To the south, in room 108, you see the bright, golden glow of sunlight.

Broken enough that trying to sit on one would be a pain in the ass. They'd make great burning wood, though, if you wanted to start a fire.
>>516820
Skellington stands in front of Dreamkicker.
>>516821
Looking very closely you can see old, faded paintings of Celestia and Luna's cutiemarks on the offering receptacle.
>>516822
It looks like an offering receptacle of some kind. In and on it are old coins and jewelry.

Enough to buy you a couple of golden party hates with diamonds on them if you keep all of it for yourself.
>>516825
You find them in a room with an offering receptacle. There is enough wealth here to make you a decently rich nanny.
>>516828
The nature paladins laugh.
"Maybe we should take them out, instead. Those two horses already have a kingdom for themselves, they don't need these."
>>516831
The Pinkie Paladin rolls his eyes.
"After what happened here? I doubt it."

A few of the necklaces would look good on you.
>>516836
The locals don't look too happy about you calling their homeland a backwater nation.
>>516837
Knowing that there is danger behind the door, you carefully swing it open. Inside are six closed coffins. It's a good thing the buffoons traveling with you weren't making noise, or they could have alerted the vampires you never told them about.
>>516838
Inside the receptacle you find a lockbox, and behind the receptacle you find a key for it. Inside is even more money.
>>516839
You note it down while the paladins each start taking things from it.

>>516844
You wind up having to squeeze past a female Discord paladin to grab a few hooffuls of cash.
[You got three cash levels]
>>516845
In the box are [seven cash levels], you guess. All the coins must be out of circulation by now, but might be worth that to collectors.

>>516851
You distribute to the money to everyone. Oh, hey, there are six closed coffins, among other things, in the next room. Because of how cramped everything is the paladins havn't seen them yet.
>>516852
Pinkie loves cash, it's true. She loves cash almost as much as the deity of tables and dresses.
>>516854
You muscle your way through and grab what is left, getting yourself [one cash level].
>>516855
Everyone stops. The Pinkie Paladin whispers.
"Can we get them before they wake up?"

You draw deeply into your reserves of magical power to create a magical firestorm, but end up drawing too deeply. Your spell goes off too soon and engulfs you in flames.
>>516865
Several folding chairs and many streamers rocket out of your party cannon and destroy a coffin, the vampire inside is blow backwards and cannot stand up.
>>516866
A dark, leafy green ball of magic explodes outwards from you and fills the room. It crushes coffins and mashes vampires against the wall, leaving all of them Helpless.
>>516867
You hop over to one of the vampires and headbutt it in the chest. The force of your attack, combined with the weakening effects of Olga's torch, causes one of its ribs to snap and pierce its heart. The vampire turns to dust.
>>516868
>>516872
You drive your staff into a vampire's chest, but cannot quite get it all through way through its heart. Your skeleton grabs a long shard of coffin and steaks a vampire, turning it to dust.
>>516871
All the paladins rush past you and fill the room before you can attack.
>>516874
It follows the example set by Olga's minion and steaks another zombie with a long shard of coffin.
The paladins take advantage of the vampires' confused state and go to town on them. In about a minute there are three more piles of dust on the ground, and the only person who got hurt is Dreamkicker who, as it turns out, is still on fire and could use some help.

Oops, Guardian. My bad.
You make sure Dreamkicker, who never got knocked down, doesn't run into anything flammable.
>>516879
You grab the tapestry off the northeast wall and beat him with it until the fire goes out. You see the familiar sight of bald, burned Dreamkicker, but this time the burns aren't from chemicals.
>>516880
You grab Dreamkicker once the fire has been put out and hug the bald, burned pony with all your might. The power of love and laughter heals his burn and regrows his soft, fancy coat of fur.
>>516881
You roll around on the ground a few times, just to make sure that goat didn't miss a spot when she was beating you.
The Discord paladins are laughing. The Nature Paladins are investigating the casks that were revealed when Happyhorn tore down the tapestry.

His coat has grown back.
The tapestry is faded and motheaten, but the barrels smell like they are full of good alcohol. The paladins have realized this too and are trying to figure out how to bring them along without risking them getting broken.
>>516886
You grew his coat back perfectly. Not only are there no bald spots, but the smell of roast unicorn has been replaced with the smell of the flowery conditioner he uses every day.
>>516887
There are no bald spots, Pomelo did a really good job. This is, what, the third time he has regrown your coat? Maybe he missed his true calling as a hairdresser.
>>516889
You shut it off. It has 14 turns of activity left.
>>516890
"Booze."
They have found a few barrels of alcohol that were hidden behind the tapestry.

It sure is. In fact, you decide to get some before the paladins can hog it all. You magically grab a barrel and open the top, then drink half of it before they can get it away from you.
You are now drunk. Roll when you speak to see how badly you slur it, with 1 being complete nonsense.
>>516898
They nod, but look sad.
"That's probably for the best."
>>516899
Just those barrels of alcohol.

Dreamkicker.

It looks very spooky down there. There is no light in that direction at all to let you see anything.
Dreamkicker.
You can't find any keys in this room, but looking north shows you several shapes, almost ponyish forming and disappearing the darkness in the hallway. Just looking at them gives you an icy feeling in your gut and really makes you want to retreat to the safety of the Celestia shrine to the south. Your magical gaze, no mater how hard you try, cannot penetrate the divine shield around it.

>>516941
"Ooh, a tough guy? Why don't you go in there and show us how tough you are. We'll watch."
Your sun lamp pushes the darkness back further, but the border between the light and the darkness is strong.

"It would certainly beat walking around like an overgrown throw rug while nothing happens. So long as there isn't any of that tainted moonlight down this way, it's where we'll go."
I'll take a few steps towards the darkness.
"So are we going or what? I can't see in the dark."
I'll shrug.

You are all inside room 108. Bright, warm sunlight comes from all around you. Painting of Celestia's cutiemark adorn the walls, and on a small altar at the far end of the room is a large key with a diamond in the hilt. In one corner in the room is a pile of blankets and a few empty bowls.

I should have posted this as soon as you all entered the Temple of the Two Sisters, but I forgot.

A soft breeze tickles the hair on the back of your neck.
>>518196
Just like last time it pushes the shadows back, but not as far as it should. The barrier between the light and the darkness is a hard line instead of a gradient fading.
>>518198
You light the firework and throw it down the hallway. There is a small spark and a pop instead of a bright flash and a boom.

>>518204
You stretch your leg as far forwards as you can and see that the light from the lantern stretches from one side of the hallway to the other, but is no where near long enough to reach the other end of the hallway. You figure that if you make three trips you will be able to bring everyone across while keeping them in the light, otherwise some people will have to walk in the darkness. You feel a soft breeze against your back.
>>518205
The result is the same.
>>518207
It disappears into the darkness. You don't hear it land. A gentle breeze brushes against your mane.
>>518208
Many of the paladins agree.

"Something was whispering in there."
He points at the hallway.
>>518225
"Anything is better than this hallway."
>>518228
You throw another firework into the hallway.
>>518229
"You heard it too?"
"There wasn't any talking."
"You mean you didn't hear it?"
>>518231
You move back.
>>518233
A breeze blows out of the hallway.

It lights up the hallway for a split second. In the brief flash of light you see your best friend from when you were growing up.

"There wasn't any talking."
"You mean you didn't hear it?"

A breeze blows out of the hallway.
>>518249
The wind blows stronger and you see the darkness start to seep into the room. You back up fast enough to stay away from it, but Happyhorn isn't so lucky. The darkness engulfs her.
>>518250
The breeze grows stronger and blows dust into your eyes. You rub them with a hoof, then everything goes dark. The wind surrounds you, buffeting you from all sides, and you hear several voices whispering over each other.
Flesh so fine

You charge in, holding your pink lantern high, and the darkness swallows you. A dark figure appears, but it is a pony. It spins around when you draw close and you feel a small cut open on your nose.
Flesh so fine
>>518255
"Get the unicorn with the lamp!"
Three of the Nature paladins and the Pinkie Paladin light their torches and charge into the darkness that is slowly filling room 129.
>>518258
A deep cut opens along your neck. You feel yourself hit the ground hard, and still cannot see anything. Maybe you should light a torch?
So fine to tear
>>518260
>>518262
The two of you see that half the Nature paladins, the Pinkie paladin, Bessy, Happyhorn, and her minion are missing. A strong wind is blowing out of room 129 and the darkness from the hallway is slowly flowing into it.

>>518265
The fireworks illuminate several shadowy ponies attacking Happyhorn, three Nature Paladins, and the Pinkie Paladin. All but one of them are bleeding, it looks like, but one brings his hammer down on the head of a shadowy pony hard. There is a flash of green light and the shadows comprising the pony scatter.
The wind continues to blow around you and the whispers continue.
So fine to tear
>>518275
The darkness pushes towards you faster than it moves into the rest of the room when you start to squeak your balls. The wind nearly knocks you off your hooves and you hear a cacophony of yelling voices as multiple cuts open up and down your sides.
>>518271
You light up a torch with your spark powder. It gives very little light in here, but lets you see a pony moving towards you in time for you to roll away and stand up. You see a green flash in the darkness. The wind continues to blow around you and the whispers continue.
to gnash the skin
>>518270
You grab Dreamkicker and start dragging him into the room. The darkness surrounds the pool of light cast by his lamp, and you see a few shadowy ponies. The wind blows very strongly now, and you can hear voices whispering.
Flesh so fine
>>518272
Your lamp only reaches the edge of the darkness here. A Discord paladin shakes her head.
"Because your friends didn't. Hold on tight, sparklepants."
The darkness finishes filling the room and surrounds you, Andelia, two of the Discord paladins, and and a Nature paladin in its light. A shadowy pony runs into the light and strikes you, opening a gash on your face as the pony melts away. You can feel the wind blowing and hear voices whispering.
Flesh so fine
Your lamp has 8/15 turns left.
>>518287
>>518284
You light your torch and raise it high. It's light finds Brutus, two Discord paladins, and two Nature paladins. You can see several shadowy ponies running around inside your pool of light. The wind blows around you and whispers fill your ears.
Flesh so fine
Your torch has 12 turns left.
>>518276
You cannot see a thing, much less Happyhorn in the darkness without a source of light. Wind blows at you from every which way and you can hear voices whispering.
Flesh so fine
Everyone can hear a loud squeak and see a bright flash of pink and then a flash of green. Brutus and Olga can see shadows engulf two Nature paladins. The shadows dart away a few seconds later and leave them crumpled and bleeding on the ground. Dreamkicker and Andelia can see the Nature paladin with the fall to the ground, blood leaking from his armor, as a shadow runs through him.

It is automatic. All you can smell are your friends, Dreamkicker, the paladin, and a lot of blood. A firestorm suddenly fills the room, but you are left in a pocket of air. When the storm dies the room is free of shadows. The pinkie paladin takes one of you and utters a loud and foul curse, tehn strikes at you with his hammer.
Roll to dodge.
>>518301
You fill the room with a whirlwind of fire, twisting and nudging it ever so slightly to not touch any of the people with you. The wind grows fiercer and fiercer, then dies along with your fire. The room is now clearly lit by your lamp, Olga's sun torch, Bessy's pink lamp, and torches help by every paladin or lying next to them on the ground. The inky darkness is gone, as are the ponies that were inside it.
>>518308
You cannot see anything in the darkness. All you can do is-drop to the ground and hold your head as everything around you turns into fire. When it stops you can see a Nature paladin on the ground in front of you. Placing a hoof on him, you mutter a prayer and he rises to his feet. Before he can thank you you hear the Pinkie paladin say a really bad word.
Everyone is stopped in the tracks as the room catches fire, but everyone is kept safe inside a pocket of air. When it clears everyone can see that all the darkness and shadows are gone and that the room is filled by torch and lamplight. One Nature paladin stands up as Pomelo heals him, but two are still bleeding on the ground. Nearly everyone is bleeding at least a little.
Brutus is in his wer-form. The Pinkie paladin curses and attacks him.

"What are you doing!?"
>>518323
You are too shook up after all the shadows and whispering then the massive firestorm to focus on your prayer.
"Friendly? How can that thing be friendly?"
>>518324
You roll away as Dreamkicker magically grabs the paladin and holds him in the air. Your hooves click and clack on the ground when you shift back to being a buffalo.
>>518325
You jump between the now buffalo Brutus and the Pinkie paladin. He struggles and shouts in Dreamkicker's grasp.
"Why are you protecting that monster!?"
>>518326
You have a bit of trouble finding all the right things.

Keep trying!
>>518336
He is facing the wrong way for your old person glare to work.

There is no door between rooms 129 and 130. The room is empty, except for the back part which has some mismatched couches and recliners. There are drops of blood here and there.

You heal Happyhorn, and even think you got rid of a few of her girl germs.

The room you are in is full of soft looking couches and chairs.

You end up having to muscle the door open. It breaks apart and reveals the empty hallway to you.

Previously, the party and the paladins charged into a room and hallway filled with shadows to rescue Happyhorn. The following fight was short, violent, and confusing but Dreamkicker saved the day with a firestorm.
The party is currently in room 130. Bessy broke down the door and the party can see that the hallway goes east and has two different passages splitting off of it. Room 130 has several couches and recliners in it, but they all have small bloodstains on them.
Dreamkicker's lamp has 5 turns left until it is recharged.

They get you into the Luna temple itself. These keys are the alternate way to get into the Forsaken District where the Luna temple is.

You discover that it is caved in, so you sneakily check out the other hallways. The other split turns north, and the hallway turns left then right further down.

You don't find anything like that, but you do see that room 132 is filled with blinding sunlight.

You jump out of the way just in time to watch Brutus charge down the southern hallway. A strong wind blows down this passage, and at the end of it you can see the pitch blackness that exists beyond your torches somehow gets even darker.

You shine your lamp at the moonbeams and open your third eye. What you see is incredible, it explains so much-a rolling Bessy grabs you and continues to roll, squishing you against the floor and banging your head around as she goes. When you finally get free you are several feet away from the moonbeams and can't remember anything after switching you lamp on.
>>519854
You roll backwards, accidentally grabbing Dreamkicker, and stand up several feet away from the moonlight. You see Brutus backing away from the dark end of the hallway. The wind is starting to die down, you notice, and as it does so the darkness becomes less, well, dark.
>>519856
You back away towards the others.

Dreamkicker lights up his horn and closes his eyes. Taking a towards the fake moonbeams, then another and another, he doesn't see a small one that has grown out of it and started moving into the fork in the hallway where all of you are. It makes contact with his chest as he moves forwards, and Dramkicker crumples like a dropped doll.
Dreamkicker is dead.

Dreamkicker lights up his horn and closes his eyes. Taking a towards the fake moonbeams, then another and another, he doesn't see a small one that has grown out of it and started moving into the fork in the hallway where all of you are. It makes contact with his chest as he moves forwards, and Dramkicker crumples like a dropped doll.
Dreamkicker is dead.

There were some Shadows to the south, but looking that way now you can see that they are gone. To the north the hallway is full of fake moonbeams and impassible.
>>519866
Not very. Your eyes are all bugged out.
>>519867
>>519868
You can easily grab his back legs and pull him out.

You drag him back into room 130 and set him on one of the couches.
>>519871
He doesn't respond.
>>519872
Your spell has no effect on him. It's almost like he's dead, but he can't be dead, right? The Pinkie paladin puts his hoof on your shoulder and shakes his head sadly.
>>519873
You light some incense and draw some designs on the floor around his couch with some mud you always keep with you. After chanting, dancing, and pulling a few hairs from his mane then tying them around his ears you give his horn a flick and headbutt him. Dreamkicker sits up with a loud gasp.
Dreamkicker is no longer dead.

Looks like you can buy it.
>>519910
Some vampire with a lot of time on his hooves, probably. Or it clawed its way out of the earth under the couch and went up through the couch, who knows.

All of you follow Olga's skeleton through the halls. It leads you past the moonbeams and down the hallway that was full of shadows. When you pull a left you can see that the rest of the hallway to the south seems darker than it should, but the way to room 132 is safe.
Sunlight seems to pour from every surface in this room. Swords and shields hang from racks around the room, but none appear to have any magical properties. There is a golden statue off Celestia in the middle of the room, and from her horn hangs a key.

All of you proceed carefully behind Olga's skeleton. The journey is uneventful until you reach room 149. Each of you, upon entering, see several coffins scattered around the room, but cannot get out thanks to all the people coming in behind you. The noise made rouses the vampires from their slumber.
The party is now fighting 8 vampires.

You jump around and sing songs about wooden stake parties.
+2 to all rolls next turn.
The magical light of Dreamkicker's lamp aids the paladins in their attacks against the vampires, which were discombobulated by Andelia's spell. Despite this a few of them still get hit.

Your rayblade shines bright as you club the vampire in the mouth and cut it, sending it to the ground where it lands on its teeth.
>>519996
>>519998
Your sun-blessed sling throws a miniature sun at a vampire. It explodes on contact and leaves a cloud of dust behind.
>>519997
Your shield flies low. Instead of cutting the vampire in half it only cuts off his legs. He falls to the floor and rolls around cursing.
>>519999

Your bolt sinks into the head of a vampire. It falls over while trying to pull the bolt out.
>>520000
You sneak up behind one of the vampires, then jump into the air and headbutt the back of his head. You hear something crack and he falls over.
>>520001
The light from Dreamkicker's lamp bounces off your fangs and you claw your way into a vampire's chest and tear out his heart. The heart and vampire both turn to dust.
>>520002
>13
>7
Your skeleton tears a long strip of wood off a coffin and spears it through a vampire, piercing its heart. The vampire turns to dust. You, meanwhile, light your torch and start beating a down vampire with it until it turns to dust.
The paladins team up on the downed vampires and before long there are three scattered piles of dust on the ground.
There is 1 vampire left.

You catch the vampire on your horns and ram it into the wall, holding it there so that-
>>520005
You can slice up the vampire with your sword while it reflects the dying light of Dreamkicker's lamp.
>>520006
Youy shoot your bolt into its heart and as its flesh starts to dry and crack-
>>520009
You jump onto Bessy's back and dive teeth first into the vampire, causing it to explode in a cloud of dust.
>>520010
>>520011
That beastly part of you cannot resist the urge to grind its ashes into the ground with your hoof.
The paladins all relax.
"Good fight."

You find a diary in one of the coffins. It belong to some stallion who, from the looks of things, made the horrible decision to try to sneak over to his marefriend's house the night after she agreed to marry him. There is even a sketch of the tail ring he gave: a silver horn ring with a ruby in it. The tone of the diary changes after that as he talks about being a vampire.
>>520017
You pick a coffin on the other side of the room from the one Pomelo is searching. It has trophies taken from victims. Trophies like hats, saddlebag buckles, pictures, a silver horn ring with a ruby in it, a few watches, and other odds and ends.
>>520018
Just vampire dust, if you think of vampire dust as important.
>>520019
You turn off your torch.
