Searching for Labyrinth Entrance Clues

The party is searching for clues to find the entrance to a labyrinth in a ruined city. They discover different sections of the city are devoted to various sacred animals, with symbols changing daily to indicate the labyrinth entrance. They recall seeing a large Minotaur statue in one area and are now exploring a section with more rat symbols. They plan to continue searching different districts to identify special landmarks or statues that might reveal the entrance location. The party is also considering how to free prisoners and distract a dragon to gain assistance from a priestess in understanding the symbols.

Exploring City for Labyrinth Entrance

The party discussed their exploration of a city, searching for sacred animal symbols to uncover the entrance to a labyrinth. They found symbols for the Minotaur, Rat, Ox, and Ant, but were unsure of the correct sequence. They also discovered a statue of a dragon, which they believed was the first symbol in the sequence. The party decided to continue their search in the morning, hoping to find the remaining symbols and uncover the entrance to the labyrinth.

Pyramid Investigation and Minotaur Plans

Frankie, the DM, and the rest of the party discussed their ongoing investigation into the pyramid, focusing on finding entrances and potential symbols. They also discussed the possibility of freeing the minotaurs, but faced challenges due to time constraints and the need for a secure location to discuss their plans. The party decided to spend the night in a secure area near the ox, with plans to investigate further in the morning. They also considered the possibility of using a spell to break the chain holding the minotaurs, but were unsure of the feasibility due to time limitations. The party agreed to continue their investigation and report back with concrete findings.

Sacred Animal Symbol Strategy Meeting

The party discussed their strategy for the upcoming day, focusing on the sacred animal symbols and their locations around the city. They decided to spread out and visit different symbols, with each member assigned to a specific animal. They also planned to keep a watch for any potential observers. The party agreed to meet early in the morning before dawn to observe the oxen symbol and determine the next steps. They also discussed the possibility of someone following or spying on them. The conversation ended with the party preparing for their individual tasks and the challenges they might face.

Symbol Identification and Maze Exploration

The party discussed their encounter with the Don and the challenges they faced in identifying the correct symbol. They decided to try again the next day and narrowed down the symbols to three: monkey, ant, and camel. They also discussed the possibility of finding an entrance to a maze and decided to explore the park area. The party also discussed the potential dangers of unreliable magic in the maze area and the possibility of more mazes connected underground. They decided to look at the rat symbol before entering the maze.

Deciphering Monkey Statue Puzzle

The party discusses their next steps in solving the puzzle of the monkey statue and its prayer wheels. They observe that the wheels stop on specific symbols: scorpion, dragon, and ant. The party debates the significance of these symbols and how they might relate to the four symbols needed to progress. They consider various strategies to deal with the dragon guarding the area, including using spells or creating distractions, but ultimately conclude that directly confronting the dragon would be too dangerous. As they brainstorm, Splinter hears two quiet Minotaur voices nearby.

The party discussed their ongoing mission to free the prisoners and navigate the labyrinth. They discovered a cartouche with symbols that might be an entrance, but the symbols change daily. They also found a hidden room with a Minotaur who claimed to be the labyrinth keeper. The party considered various strategies to free the prisoners, including using spells to distract the dragon and flavoring food to entice her. They decided to take the week to think about their next steps and reconvene the following week.
