Caveman does not know about Blue Swede video, or these visions, but Narrhil sure as hell hears that crazed chanting in the cellar.

[Right, so high pitch howling and chanting, and the sound of rattles, got it]

Narrhil looks at Tillak and whispers, "were those half-men capable of such magic!" Referring to the beast-men who had captured them.

Yeah, thought it was meant to be him, still, they looked like me 3 months ago when some moron headbutted me, I made him run like a coward though. Idiot was not attacking a hippy, but a trained killer...

Still, @IR no I do not watch 'Blue Swede,' I not know what it is, or why you placed pictures in-game?

Is it meant to Tillak, cos he must look petty bad at present?

Tillak says, "We cannot stay here forever. I will not die in fear." 

"Well said noble warrior, but you will die of your wounds," replied Narrhil, "and I only said till the sun returns, which is only a year from now!" He added reassuringly.

"I am uncertain," strains Narrhil to listen at the secret door. He wished he had some kind of spell to search outwith their confinements..

Despite straining as hard as possible for the slightest sound through the stone, it seems  to Tillak and Narrhil that the noise makers in the cellar have left or fallen asleep.

"We could hide in here till next year," Narrhil said to Tillak. We have food, warmth, light, and good company," giving a nod to the great worm resting on the portal. "What more could go wrong?" He part smiled...

"Aye, savages," whispered Narrhil to Tillak, as he prepared his weapons.

"We can only hope they do not locate the secret door," says Narrhil.

Narrhil and Tillak hear movement outside of the dome chamber.

Narrhil listens at the secret door, "there was savages patrolling the temple, I rushed down here to make sure you were safe, and glad to find that you are well again Master Tillak, but I have no idea of their disposition. We have not had a safe haven in this lands. Last thing that came at me was six Hell Hounds and I was lucky to survive. Thing is the foolish dogs have a master, somewhere in the hills and he had sent the pack to invite me to conflab, but honestly I believe it was overkill, and it might have been bring him, alive or dead!"

"They are dead now, as I destroy the lot...!" Indicating his magical wand of freezing, which he now held in his hand.

Narrhil guards the closed secret passage. "With the Great Worm as our ally, and a neverending supply of food and moisture from the stew, we could survive here till the sun once more hovers over our heads and then begone from this accursed place. But this task given to us by the Witch-Ghost would forever plague us!"

"Thing is, with a portal through time," he continues, "we could comeback ten years from now, and still travel to the right time in the past, and with that we could be able to garner more power, and men to aid in our quest!"

"Ah, Votin and you did mention a thief, but he had disappeared into the void, just as I arrived at this forsaken temple!" Narrhil ponders the loss of Votin into some sub-dimensions. "Perhaps this infernal Time-portal is fluctuating the space-time-continuum and pulling people back and forth at it leisure?"

He tries to help Tillak rise...

[Nice Character Sheets Iron ]

"Thief, I saw no thief," the cryomancer, who was still in shock. This did not stop him looking around him for some invisible spell-thief. "No..," he pondered out loud at not finding a hidden spy. Perhaps Tillak in his coma had witnessed something he could not see. "We still have a problem, we have marauders infiltrating the temple!"

[Welcome back Sully, this is an unexpected pleasure. ]

"The other adventurer...nevermind. Perhaps it really was a fever dream. All that matters now is that we exit this temple, preferably with our prize in hand. Ythaqqa'a Blood, this is a cursed place. How many mauraduders are there, Brother Narhill? I am still weak on my feet, so you will have to lead on." Tillka readies his pick and shield. 

[It's great to be back, dude. I have a feeling that we may be coming to the end of this campaign and I would love to see the finish line.]
 

[Indeed, hope we can get through this portal. ]

"Tillak, awaken," he speaks with conviction, "you are needed!"
