OOC - Ewww. Looks like fun ahead.
IC - “Why would the clam eat it’s own baby egg? I think it’s safe. If we take the pearl do you think we can hatch it? Hmmm. I don’t know if I want to be a daddy to a clam. Where would you even begin to put the diaper?”
“Zur? You found stairs? I’m gonna grab this yellow & blue gem before we go anywhere.” Thunk picks up the nearby gems and adds them to his inventory.
“What do you think Cap’n Quaid? We going down?”
"Hey, grab that giant pearl too while you're at it! I thought that was the shrine, but maybe this weird tongu-ey clam is. Or it's down these stairs... Also, looks like a couple of potions and... is that a suit of armor south of us?"
OOC: If this ugly clam IS the shrine we'll take a minute to sort all our items out before heading downstairs.
OOC: it was going to be, but since the searchbot gave a secret passage out. The shrine will down the stairs.
