Tobriad cocked his head towards Coop, a curious look on his face.
"He's new." Eleutheroi says. "We think Montrose was contacted by an alien intelligence - like a god, but blobular and tentacally - and was talked into becoming a mutated demonized form of himself, and convinced to destroy the pyramid in a bid to carry out the intelligence's wishes. We assume that it's because it just wants to see what will happen. Is it clear, now? Can we move on?"

Once Coop recovered from the slackjawed look on his face, he replied quietly," Uh yeah, let's move on then." He nodded. At the same time, his grip around Sarah became a little tighter without him realizing he was doing it. The idea of another person he knew being manipulated like his mother struck a chord in him.

"Then." Eleutheroi says. "I'm officially off to interrogate a thousand-year-old cranky creature of magic. Later." And he walks out of the room.
"As for us." Tobrias says. "I believe Miss Lockheart agreed with our suggestion of touring the pyramid."
"Good enough for my side." Says Rozatonosky. "I'll make sure no-one kills us by accident."

" We'd appreciate that." Coop replied to Roz, though his obviously wasn't acting like himself.

Sarah nods at Tobrias, trying not to wince at how hard Coop was squeezing her hand glad, for once, that she was stronger than the average person. "We should get going then." she says to Tobrias. Glancing at Coop, she shows her concern for how he is doing as she squeezes his hand.

Coop realized what he was doing as Sarah squeezed him back, and he instantly released his grip. " Sorry." he apologized lowly.

Sarah smiles quietly at Coop and says quietly. "It's ok."

" I... I'll explain later." Coop said, trying to compose himself. He looked at Bianca, " Are you coming with us, or heading back to the guild?"

Bianca nods and says, "I'd like to investigate the pyramid unless we have another topic to research."

After about 20 minutes (note, they are already at the guild), a small group of people, including Tobrias, Rozatonosky, Sarah, Coop, Bianca, and a pair of armoured Fayde guards are waiting.
"OK." Says Rozatonosky, hanging up his cell-phone. "The military will not shoot to kill us right away. Best we could do. they are not fond of us just waltzing in the front door."
"They do not know where it is." Says Tobrias waving his hands. "It has been buried for centuries."
After a minute, a shimmering mirror-like... thing appears in the room. "Step through, but be careful, it might a little disorienting." Says Tobrias. The guards go through first...

Coop wasn't sure about it, but when his turn came, he walked throughwith a gulp and his eyes closed

Sarah nod at Tobrias and, when Coop has gone into the pyramid, she follows him shivering quietly at the sensations she feels and stands beside Coop as they wait for the others.

Bianca casually walks through the shimmering thing, clutching her bag and holding her breath.

One the other side!
Following some Stargate-like effects, the group finds themselves in a cool, dry anti-room.
"We are currently 120 feet underground." Says Tobrias. "In the ante-chamber. In that direction." A flashlight turns on and points. "Is the original entrance." The light flashes down a hallway. "This is way we want to go."

" This place feels more like a tomb than ..., wait," coop started to ask as a thought occured to him," If we're so far under the city, why is this place so hard to defend? Just drop a squad of guards here in the hallway and stop anyone trying to get in."
