I’ll be ready!
I can sense a bunch of artifacts though!

@Path

What sorts? I'm wary of traps, especially since we aren't alone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

No, they seem to be here for the same reason as us. The conservation doesn’t appear to be hiding, more of saving for threats.
*looks around at the wall inscriptions*
And they are moving away from us.

@Path

The odds seem low. We should be ready for this to become dangerous.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Their signature isn’t strong, but I can sense them.
*looks at the darkness*
Its on and off, like they are conserving their magic.

@Path

Was somebody following us?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Someone else entered the dungeon.

@Path

Someone besides us? That's the most suspicious thing I've ever heard.

*a red flash circles my pupil and I get up*
Well! In any case! We must continue in!
Let us go!
*rushes in the door as pans and pots clang from my backpack*

@Path

*Follows behind you with a skill activated that enhances my sight and danger inutition*

*waves my hand over it, reading into the spell further*
Both.

@Path

*Large portions of the structure optimize for magic efficiency and reducing the amount of magic required to sustain the spell, and others address reinitializing the channel if briefly obstructed or severed, and more manage safety features, stabilizing the spell*
The worst case scenario, we might learn something about the behavior of the dungeon, and the circle may come in handy later. The best case scenario, we get to unravel the entire magic protection of the dungeon.

Interesting.
*looks at it while crouching*
What if the dungeon hinders your magic that connects you to this circle?

@Path

*The structure of the spell seems to lean heavily on the gate spell itself, with most modifications addressing exceptions and unusual circumstances*
If we're lucky or if we're unlucky?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

No, how? Like I am curious of how that spell works.

@Path

It's a modified Lesser Gate spell, and can connect our magic back to the entrance by using the circle as a permanent anchor. Lily can give you all the little details of how it works if you're interested.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

How will it be able to do all three?

@Path

Why wouldn't it be able to?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Hm.
*walks up and looks at your spell*
What’s the purpose of this?and how will it work?

@Path

It's a beacon. We can use it as an emergency escape, to follow any changes in the maze, or remote cast spells.
