Careful examination eventually bears fruit. The smell of stale Mooffalo blood can be felt once the dust you've brought up in the air settles down once again. And as you lean closer to inspect the carving on the table, Auron, you notice some weird scrapes on the floor... Rather shallow, mind you, but repetitive and parallel. They abruptly end near the rug that covers the floor under the table. Roy, you then notice another set of scrapes, slightly different. They're near the table's feet. It is being moved regularly.

Naomi: Hm... Exuberance gathered some data about the planetary system. I think there's multiple satellites?

Auron: "...Help me move this table out of the way."

-He crouches down and grips the edge of the table with his left hand.- "Quietly, now."

-to Naomi- "Hm...whatever it is, they're still preparing. We have a chance."

"The blood that I'm smelling is being used for something. And I imagine it's this."

Oh well, hm... What are plans of you for the now?

-B312 is silent-

-He takes a moment to bridge his hands on the table and think this over-

-Lisa looks at all the various markings-

Lisa: I can't tell exactly what the tenants here are planning, but it doesn't look good... summoning some sort of creature, perhaps?

As you move the table and stand over the rug, those of acute hearing among you can discern some weird sounds coming... from below it? It is rhythmical and monotonous, like a single voice chanting and others then repeating in many-voiced choir. The sound sometimes abruptly stops, and another one, slurping and wet, comes in its place.

Hastur meanwhile hesitantly enters and approaches the bookshelf, then skims through the names.

Hastur: Hmm... All in aklo language. "Luna Ipsa Mysteria" by Saint-Bernard The Stray Dog of Gevaudan, "The Almanac of Lunar Eclipses" by Remus Lupine... Oh, look, "The Rediscovery of Moons" by Furrycelsus. ~he looks at his companions~ You people can guess who'd own these books and what they are for, right?

"...cultist, like those in the movies?

B312: ...Go home, maybe. There's still a war to fight, and they still need my help.

Maybe if Noble Team was displaced like this I can find them and bring them back.

The Shack

-Auron doesn't turn to face Hastur, instead kneeling down to listen to the sounds.-

Auron: "...I can. Corrupt summoners, or something similar."

"Start looking for a trap door. We need to stop this. Now."

-He stands, and kicks the rug aside.-

-She lowers her weapon and keeps her finger off the trigger to avoid accidentally frying a nearby ally as she looks around at the thoroughly creepy house-

B312: And the first step to that is figuring out where I am.

Second step is a path back home. Third step is a way back.

The rug is effortlessly tossed away, yet again filling the air with dust... And as it settles down, you see a heavy trapdoor latched to the floor by thick iron hinges. It has no lock, yet from its rim protrudes a crude handle. Furthermore, you can discern most of the words now, spoken by the leading voice, haughty and inspired.

With every slab of flesh,
With every drop of blood,
With every splinter of bone
We devote our bodies to The Pale Moon.

(@Auron) Hastur: ~shrugs as the samurai's words are proven by the chant from below~ Indeed. ... Well, Helidor, Astronomers as well, but there are few astronomers speaking languages of forgotten cults. ~looks at the trapdoor in anxiety~ Man, and I thought I've left all that stuff behind...

-A furrowed brow encompasses Auron's reaction to the chant, followed by a shake of his head.-

Auron: -to Hastur- "If you want to stay, you can."

-He kneels down and gingerly grabs the handle of the trapdoor.- "Prepare yourselves. I don't know how loud this door is going to be."
