Welcome to Gaia! ::

Coriander rolls her eyes and laughs softly. "You exaggerate... but I'd love more help as well. To show me what I should be sketching."

Coriander puts down the books she has in her arms and scrounges about for a pad of paper and some charcoal sticks.

She follows the other dragons outside, then moves to Igniska's side.

"What am I looking for, Lady Silveria? Or do you just want me to draw the whole area?" she asks as Igniska lowers herself so Cori can mount.

"Right now I want you to merely draw what you see from the air... and Luceil, if you could be so kind as to dive into the pool, to see what you find there. I'm looking for a hidden entrance to a major tomb. The tomb is ancient... I doubt very much it has anything left in it beyond the stones which contains it, but Hlal-son and I would far rather be assured of the fact after uncovering some of the stuff we have in Paladine's store rooms. The containment spells of our ancestors appear to far out match our own."

Halfway down he find steps carved into the stone, eroded with time and barely noticeable until he began looking for something. It is too cold and too dark for him to see anything else with any degree of clarity.

While high over head, Coriander is sketching the pool and it's surroundings, including the secondary spill which leads down to the valley floor.

Up close things don't look like much but as he swims back from the rocky face of the pool just below the falls he notices what appears to be some form of relief carving, so worn and cracked it is barely discernible. Of course his eyes could just be playing tricks on him.

Overhead, Coriander spies something odd about the meadow and asks Igniska to land on it. She begins digging with her bare hands at the edge of the clearing, looking for something.

The drawings are enormous and even with his lightstone, he cannot make them out clearly enough from a distance. The only reason he realized what they were to begin with is that one has a hand upons which the fingers are still clearly discernible. Fingers, each as long as he is tall.

Up on the meadow, Cori is frantically digging. Igniska is trying to help, but Cori keep telling her to be careful. So she doesn't dislodge something.

The relief extends up out of the water's edge, but below the water's surface he begins to lose it, erosion and time have taken their toll.

Meanwhile Igniska and Coriander have uncovered another flat stone, similar to the trio's sunning stone, but more regular in shape... at least along one side.

Silveria lands beside them and examines the stone before telling the two to stop for the day. "It is obviously worked." she remarks running a claw along the edge, and if your hunch is right, Cori... this whole field may be due to their presence... But I think we need your father here to document the find and some help in getting it uncovered."

Sad to say, unless he can find a way to drain the pool, he soon finds that most of it has either worn away or lies buried beneath centuries, perhaps eons of debris washed down from the face of the cliff. But he has seen enough to know it appears to be two figures, standing side by side.
