The gnome stops by a door. Bonwhill states, "The rumors of our insanity have been greatly exaggerated. As my husband stated, I have no intention of letting them in. Now let's see what we have."
The Wizards open the door, to reveal a circular room. In the center is a round table with multiple crystals embedded in the surface.
The table comes to life as people enter, displaying a three dimensional image of the tower and its surroundings.
The Wizards manipulate something, and the image shifts, showing more detail of the inner grounds. Much of what is out there. Should have been torn up or destroyed, people are circling around the inner edge of the maze, apparently looking for something, others gather in front of the door, launching a steady stream of cantrips in it's Direction.
A tiny representation of Commander Cyanwrath can be seen speaking with a tall woman in austere robes.
"Oh my, they certainly seem to have caused a good deal of damage."
Perry breathes a sigh of relief after hearing the gnome verify that they will not be opening the door to speak with the evil army. He follows the gnome into the circular room and begins sharply looking around the space, his eyes darting around the room.
As the gnome begins fiddling around with this magical contraption, Perry adjusts his monocle. The dapper tiefling now appears to be holding what appears to be some sort of pipe. He then appears to inhale a big hit from the pipe and blows out two magically created rings of smoke into the air, the smaller ring passing through the center of the larger one.
"My, my, what have we here with this contraption. Quite an impressive display of magic this is, wot," Perry says with a golf clap. As the image of Commander Cyanwrath appears, Perry points the dragonman out and says, "Hrmph, that blue one there is their leader or commander or whatnot. What was his first name again? Captain Ponderosa or some such nonsense I believe. But who is that robed woman he's talking to? Is she another dragon in disguise, wot?"
Perry then asks the gnomes, "So how do you plan to communicate to them then, wot? Also, don't mention that we're here if you could. Wouldn't want to ruin the surprise and whatnot, you know."
Lia looks at the images with great interest." Who is she indeed.. That is a great question. We know about Cyanwrath. The unknown is the more dangerous at this time." She studies the images with a discerning eye.
Mari keeps glancing at the sight of the foppish Perry. She mumbles under her breath, "He thinks he is a prince now, wot." She rolls her eyes.
Specific Action: Lia will study the apparent wizard along with everything in the images looking for anything useful to their cause. She will use guidance to assist her.

Poljen sighs with relief when the doors reveal another room, rather than an army of enemy mages. He walks in, and is impressed by the image of the tower. He frowns when he sees Cyanwrath speaking with a woman, almost deferentially. "She must be someone of importance in the cult, dragon or otherwise."
He watches the figures scurry about, then says, "The ones at the edges are looking for us. Or at least where we will emerge from." He turns to Velon and Lia. "When this turns into a fight, unless our hosts can simply banish them, maybe have some of us out in the maze, ready to enter the courtyard. The rest of the Blaze come from the tower, or even… teleport? Yes, teleport into their midst. That gives those coming from the maze a great distraction to strike from behind as well. I could strike from the maze, or I can storm into their midst like a whirlwind from here." He pauses then shrugs. "Just a thought. Anyone have a plan for the fight?"
Morgaine seeing the rest of the group following the gnomes; follows as well. Once she enters the room the gnomes went to along with the others, she is most impressed with the contraption before her once she see what it can do. She thinks and sends over the mental link(If still active, if it not she will just think it) "Could this be what they are after? It would be very using to several people."
Observing with the rest of the group, Lawrence compares the magical viewing techniques with that used to empower the pilots room in the castle. *I wonder how far this device can perceive? The pilot room is more immersive, but limited in range. This seems far more flexible. *
Looking closely at the assembled troops, he trie to see if they have anything special in their arsenal - items of significant power or perhaps even some of that which the party seeks.
Sa- perception. (Advantage with the robe, or not?). Forgot to put in the +5.

Velon sees the others making their way down the stairs and follows along. As he catches up and enters the circular room he starts to ask "What's going on now?" "Winter showed… "At that he sees Lia in her new dress with her hair done differently, etc and unintentionally drops his hammer on the floor with a large clang. It echoes through the room as Velon's eyes grow wide and his cheeks red with embarrassment. In his first attempt to pick it up swiftly and mitigate the situation the tip of the longsword on his back hits the wall and prevents him from doing so. At that he turns, clanging his armor off of the wall but, after a few more bumps, manages to kneel down and retrieve the hammer. He hops back up as if nothing had happens, looks at Lia again, and takes one more deep breath to complete his recovery. He slowly moved over next to her, trying not to bump anything, and whispers, "Um, you look REALLY nice." Clearly he's still quite embarrassed. He sees Mari and adds "You haven't introduced me to your sister here, Lia." "Hi, I'm Velon." He winks at Mari, looks at her dress and mouths "Very nice" to her as well.
The paladin peers at the wizard's table with great interest, yet again impressed by their various devices. He waits eagerly to see what they will suggest is to be done with Cyanwrath and the others and is thankful that Lia, Perry, Mari and Poljen found a way to get the wizards to focus on the problem at hand.
