Theme Music is now mandatory

The hole Jason carved with his fist forms a perfectly circular entryway into a deeper galley of the pyramid...

Oddly enough, a staircase descends into the room at the exact level of the Claydol carving's face. Those who step through are greeted with a monstrous chamber more regal than one would expect from an ancient civilization; gold and silver glyphs decorate the stone floor molding, and beautiful lanterns seem to replace the primitive torches from before. The room is essentially a trapezoid, with the ceiling a tad smaller than the floor. There are three large entryways into rooms of varying colors.

To the left, there is a large metal archway with red runes painted on it. It seems a bit melted around the edges.

To the right, two marble pillars surround an entryway with blue reflections adorning the ceiling, sparkling like an ocean.

In the back of the room, there appears to be an entryway up as well. A spiral staircase seems to ascend into the entryway, which drips with vines and seemingly natural light.

In the center of the room is a small hole, an entrance that looks like a sewer pipe. It has a ladder down bolted to the back.

((This is essentially a hub room, so feel free to split off to whichever way suits your fancy!))

Inei enters, Yari floating behind him, it's wings buzzing soothingly. Looking around, the lithe man opens a button on the bottom of his dark military coat, easier to move that way, and takes in the room as good as he can. He turns around his own axis a few times, trying to decide where to go.

Hmmm. The red path and blue path look like they'll be perfect for Tekikaku, but if the green one is a "forested" area, I'll be able top move better...hmmm. Plus Yari could get the work out he needs to be in better shape.

"Yari, be ready. New Terrain, new area. Don't be rash, we don't want a repeat of the workshop, now do we?"

The Beedrill starts nodding enthusiastically, which quickly turns into a nodding when it realizes it's gesture. It becomes alert, buzzing behind, and roughly 2 meters off the floor, from Inei. Walking towards the green, vine covered entrance, Inei prepares himself, adopting a slightly crouched position to not become too apparent and move more quietly.

Inei and Yari both ascend the stairs, Inei silently; the loud beating of Yari's wings make a nice cover. (Will cover the Perception part of that in the Greenhouse)

Stefan enters the chamber just before the foyer and approaches the staircase he noticed after the battle with the claydol.

"Pardon me!" Owen called to Stephan before the stranger disappeared up the staricase, a bit out of breath as he jogged to catch up, staring around in wonder at the massive chamber. "My, this place is quite breathtaking. I wish I'd brought a camera! Ahem." He smoothed his jacket out as he got the man's attention, a friendly expression on his bearded face. "I don't mean to intrude if you prefer your solitude, but do you mind if I explore alongside you? I'm not as spry as I used to be, and I'd certainly feel safer with some company. I assure you my Pokemon can pull their own weight. If it's a hassle, I can find someone else to accompany."

Jones pulls up short as he sees the duo that are still in the Foyer. "Well, this is a cozy little party. You two planning on heading down there as well?" He indicates the opening at the center of the room where the Claydol used to rest.

"Oh, hello again Mr. Jones! I've no idea what direction to start my search in, so I was just looking for a partner or two to tag along with. The more the merrier, I always say."

Jones nods. "Well I'm headed down to an area I was clearing out yesterday. Might lead to a new place inside the Pyramid, might lead to someplace that we've already explored. Feel free to come with; if you don't mind helping haul and split rocks along with my team and myself. Oh, there are a number of Metapod and Kakuna down there, as well as a Beedrill and a Butterfree that I'm guessing are their parents. They didn't seem to mind my being there so long as I kept my distance and didn't threaten them. Just a heads up."

Stefan eyes them for a moment. He hadn't had two partners since day one, but he didn't think the old man would be much trouble, and Jones was trustworthy enough.

"Krieger can help split rocks, but I don't have much else. I'm interested in catching some bugs, maybe find something Merchant doesn't have yet, but I'm most interested in taking a look around. I've been to all the other areas, and have at least surveyed them, but I've not even looked down there yet, so. . . ."

Stefan shrugs and continues to descend.

Jones nods to the old man. "Onwards and downwards then. Watch your step, the ladder is a bit slippery."[color] With that he descends as well.

Reya steps through the opening, getting a glimpse of the foyer. The melted archway catches her eye. After taking in the architecture she heads through.
