I find myself in some sort of hidden chamber underneath the church. Sticks has followed me down.
I light the area with the oil-filled globe.

We enter through the large double doors. The room on the other side is approximately the same size.
Two statues decorate narrow alcoves on each side.


"Miss Sticks, do you have any insight into what this place is?"
"Beats me, chief. I'd say it's a crypt but the smell of death isn't quite strong enough. And there's usually more shiney things.."

Have sticks check the keyholding one for traps. I'm starting to think this is an initiation chamber or a hiding place. Either way, it could be quite dangerous.

Just so you know... you're on a trap door.

This is likely one of those temple puzzles so... if I had to guess.

Light the brazier on the left side of the door if you want to open it.

Alternatively if you want to find out how deep that probable lethal drop pit goes, light the one on the right side of the door.

I light up one of the braziers. There is no effect.

Late afternoon = Old Man door

Unless it has nothing to do with the current time. The key with the sun on the horizon could mean either late afternoon or morning.

The front of the church faces East. That would mean the key depicts sundown.
If that's right, then using the key on the old man was correct.

I don't know how I can find out what happened, though.

I've already went through the double doors. It's where I got this key.

That chair.
Is it movable, or is it bolted to the floor? Or, is it not even a chair at all?

If it's movable, it would probably be enough of a boost for her to use well enough - although you might want to switch to the Baby room and get that chair as well, so she can reach the Old Man room's keyhole with minimal effort.

It is true that this set up won't be good for the base of operations I have in mind.
Obviously the original owners were more concerned with secrecy for whatever reasons.
I'll have to think of a way to alter the layout.

The skeletons are not animated.
I manage to salvage a pot helmet, a nearly complete suit of chainmail, two keys, a small gem, a pouch of gold, a rapier, a longsword and a mace. The rest is too worn to be valuable.

Are any of your companions familiar in the use of any of those weapons? How about you, since your spear is currently attached to the banner. Sticks is right out, but either you or Timotei could use the armor. You were a mounted knight, you'd probably be used to it.

Chainmail goes to Timmy. He'll be in the range where protection from slashing non-heavy weapons is crucial more often than you. Helmet goes to you, since it can protect against heavier attacks. Your build looks like a good fit for a rapier, unless Sticks is any good with one. In that case, you get the longsword and Timmy gets a mace.

Are you sure this is their base of operations? For all you know it could be an "adventurer-flytrap", that is to say, a series of rooms designed with an adventurer's expectations in mind- puzzles, occasional enemies, the usual such. Except that there's nothing at the end but a grueling death; the more realistic the entry path is, the less the adventurer thinks about what's at the end, since they usually associate the path's quantity of danger with the dungeon's quantity of treasure. Usually an adventurer can't resist these since they act the same as dungeons except without the loot.

Hold on, why don't they just build these instead of the dungeons that actually have loot in them? With all the adventurers these days it'd seem like a suitable preposal...

Damn, now I wanna write a quest where there's no treasure or escape at the end, just a spikepit.

Yes, I imagine that this empty room with only a monster in it is nothing but a trap.
That makes me suspect that there is a room of the walking adult man..
I probably was not the only one to attempt an easy way in with only two keys, only I was bright enough to figure out how to destroy the monster.

The chainmail and pot helmet will go to Timotei. The shape of the helmet is not suitable for my head.
The rapier will go to Sticks, the longsword to me, and the mace to Timotei.
I still prefer to find a polearm, ofcourse.

I put the keys and the gem in the pouch with gold.

Judging from the shape, the left key will fit into the undeath slot. The other is the sunrise key.

Check behind the desk of the young age door's room maybe? The chair too. Those are really bad guesses but who knows? Failing that leave the entire area, go back to the room where there are the set of double doors and another set of doors. Then try the other doors, being ready for any deadly mechanisms within.

There we are.
The book of the morning, the book of the evening, and here is the book of the noon.

That's all the rooms in this complex accounted for. The trap was a close call, but I am glad we sprung it now rather than when we had already settled in here.
Speaking of which, I proclaim this area safe. It is now our base of operations.

Me and Timotei will get to work clearing out the underground chambers and the aboveground church. Sticks will be cleaning whatever needs to be cleaned.

It is easily possible to open and close the complex from downstairs, and now I know which stone it is I can open it from above without lighting the braziers too.

As you put so well, the biggest problems is going to be turning this into a reasonable base of operations.
Here is the layout as I understand it.
The rotating rooms serve absolutely no purpose to me that I can think of, but before I go at it with hammer and pickaxe, perhaps you have any bright ideas on how to use it to my advantage.

When it comes to expansion, hollow out from the doorways that are blocked off when the key hallway isn't on them.

Also, do any of you have non-dungeoneering skills?
A craft?

Use it the way the previous owners did, trapped gaterooms for safety. Or make it a handy way of storage.

No wait those ideas are stupid. Alright. Find some way to make a hookup-terminal thingy to the turntable that moves the rooms around. Put one in each room and then use that as the main "hub" for your future fortress, expanding underground from each of the other 3 cardinal directions. It'd be cool.

Question- what powers the turntable-room thing? Is it magic, or can we find whatever engine it is and use it for our own purposes?

If an additional tunnel was dug out that connected to the four rooms, you could make it a sort of security gate. Someone with the proper key would rotate the room from the entrance side, and then would wait in the correct chamber. Then someone else would rotate the room again from either the entrance area or from further inside. Obviously to keep it from becoming a death trap, a similar mechanism should be installed on the other side that rotates it.

You can dig a secret tunnel that connects all the rooms, and still allow for rotation. Each person would get a room to sleep in: Blue for you, Red for Sticks, Yellow for Timotei. The white room could be for meetings. The other empty room could be a... um... guest room?
>>
No. 78862 ID: 632862

The problem with using the rotating room for anything other than a security gate is the danger of getting crushed by the moving wall. It's also likely to disturb whoever's in it when it rotates.
>>
No. 78863 ID: 94459b

I think the turning rooms would make for good storage. By default it only accesses unimportant stuff, and with each key you can access something else. I suppose using any incorrect key on any keyhole makes the trap room appear (you should check how it works exactly), so you could easily assign functions to the keys and given them to whoever should have them, with a reminder to trigger the trap room when they're done with whatever.

That's right. I have no way of digging tunnels or finding the mechanism turning the room by myself. I will need expert miners to dig underneath a city.
I was thinking about simply tearing down the walls of the rotating room, but you imply that it can be most useful. I'll use them for storage for now.

Me and Timotei are going out to salvage any supplies and furniture. He will pay any dead we find their last respects in the name of the Sungod.

..I'm absolutely exhausted.

An example:

Dawn room: Treasure.
Noon room: Weapons and armor.
Dusk room: Emergency food.

I suppose you could also use them as cells in a pinch.

An interesting desi-
OH SHIT.

I just remembered the Forest Temple from Zelda!

Anyway: Secret doors in all of the roundtable rooms connecting to the others. 'North'
connecting room is the Vault, where you keep your shit. The 'East' is your meeting hall. 'South' is an escape route to a safe location, preferebly with a FUCK THIS DUNGEON switch hidden cleverly inside.

Another secret room 'south' of the entry hall is one that leads to your private quarters. Enlarge these rooms as needed for comfort.

To make this even more effective, hide the doors into the branching rooms as engravings of the sun.

I was saying that if we used it for bedrooms or something, someone could decide they need to access a different room at the same time that someone else leaves. Also you can't really rotate the room from inside it, so it's not a place anyone would want to stay for an extended period of time.

So, I say either use it as a security gate, or disable the mechanism.
