Dave, Fist of Odin
Garden of Thorns, hey. Hmmm.
"Enough," I cry, "Of clues!"
There is a lotus seed, and a thorn-bush maze, and a Fist of Odin, who - much as he likes the clobbering, is thinking that he ALSO has four plant-growth potions, and a weed-killer potion.
And allow me to refer you to a post by the DM titled 'details' - when we opened the door just before visiting the Oracle. There are two comments to this post - it's about half-way down the page on the 10.8.2006 log.
Look at the first letter of each word on the fourth book.
Hey - I dunno if it's Odin's grace or Zelba's - but I know I'm not the brains here, so it must be some sort of divine inspiration.
We've got - what, a couple of rounds? I can think of a few things to try:
Grow the lotus with a plant growth potion. Maybe? I dunno. It seems like Vrill ate something just before he became V/C - maybe a lotus seed? I kinda don't want to be part of any DFoO/V/C concoction.
Grow the lotus, get a seed, give it to the dead girl. Again, I dunno.
Grow the lotus and KILL it. I doubt this would do anything.
Do something with the lotus, and also start weed-killing some stuff. Like a hedge-maze, or a lotus plant?
Tick tick tick on the Vrill . . . thoughts?
My vote is to grow the lotus and see what happens from there, but I'm not going to actually do that until I get a confirmation from another PC or two that this might not be dumb...
And Rob - we're in a hedge maze, where the hedges have thorns, right? And there's a dead Priest of Jesus, and a dead girl who might be vaguely Zelba-connected, and a crazy lich mage guy, and some statues. Plus us, and our NPC robot friend, and some other robots who are probably not so friendly. Anything else around here, while I'm grabbing a lotus seed and preparing to pour some Plant-Growth potions on it?
