Turning to the others in Common, "Are you guys still standing there speachless? Looks like we have a guide."
Turning to the construct, she says, "POINT TO THE DEMONS!" In Abyssal first. If it does not respond, she then says it again in Infernal. She takes note of which language it was that it understood.
In common to the others, "What do you want to do about the statues? Looks like we have a group of hosts here and none of them are to be taken lightly. If there are statues to depict them, then there are surely some to be found..."

Seeing the statue get up Muradin almost get a heart attack "I told you! why did you wake him up?". then, when Adelia says that he can be their guide and the gloves buzz like the crystals Muradin says "I don't think he is willing to guide us! hear his gloves! he wants to attack us with buzzing crystals.. I mean those skelies from the before! we should run!" Then Muradin ready him self to battle incase he will be blocked.
OOC: lol! buzzing crystals ;D

"If he wanted to attack, then you would be dead." Adelia glares at the dwarf, with a look of disgust.
"But if you want to attack it, then go right ahead..." she winks at the dwarf, with a cruel glare. "It's your funeral..."

"We shall see." Muradin responds, he is much smarter than adelia - at least he thinks that.

"Holy Shit!" Skitt jumps back and readies himself for an attack. When he realizes that Adelia has some sort of power over this creature, he relaxes but is still tense. "So Adelia, what the hell did you do? Ok I know you made it come to life, but. . . what. . . .nevermind. This thing is on our side though right?"
{nice trick}

Abbar, also knowing the languages Krysta used, immediately expresses his thoughts, though still a bit daunted at the sight of the standing construct:
"So our lovely companion Adelia has cleverly schemed herself into control of all of us. I should distrust you in such a position and I do, but your wit makes up for it, I think. Well, Adelia, now you have made it listen only to you, what do you want it to do?
Oh, and as the master, would you please ask it what those three holes in its forehead are, if it can speak?"
He points at them, before addin: "Oh, and perhaps, if we can get this huge thing through that tunnel I and skitt went through, or vice versa, we could let it fight the insect."

Unfortunatly, your joy is interupted by a loud and low voice that echoes thoughout the dungeon.
"Speak the word or be destroyed!"
You turn towards the direction of the sound... Towards the construct...
He stands tall and firm, and fighting, as it seems, would not be a good idea. Espcecial for the wounded members of the group.
It seems that Adelia has no command over the being. She only woke him up, and now he's demanding a word. What will you do?
{*Shakes head* You still didnt learn anything from your gaming with me as DM, did you? Hehehehe ;D}

Muradin shakes with fear - his skills are fighting not magic. He wants to shout 'I told you!!!' but he is too afraid that the statue will thing its 'the word' or our guess for it - so he doesn't shout.
He is now like a statue.

Great... Now what are we gonna do, Abbar thinks to himself, passing a likewise look to Adelia. Giving a passing glare over all of his companions, Abbar takes the initiative. He slowly takes a few steps back, as he never came into the room itself, and tries to hide behind the corner of the room entrance. This will end up in a long run, Abbar figures, so at least I should make certain I'm not gonna end up in the rear...

Possible Knowledge check to get a hint at what words would be used to control constructs in Hell?
Adelia begins the thought process of what to do in this situation. Luckily, she is standing in the doorway, so should she guess wrong, or another one of these others shout something else, she will instinctively dodge around the corner of the doorway to get out of the room.

Skitt glares at Adelia, what once was seen as a happy emotion of having a huge construct on our side in hell has now turned into aggression misplaced to Adelia, not wanting to speak Skitt bites his lip and clenches his jaw. Slowly, and I mean very slowly, Skitt begins to inch his way into some shadows to hide. Coming up with magic words is not his specialty.

{OOC: now, tell the truth - If I didn't write that Muradin is afraid to speak so the statue won't think thats his guess for 'the word' wouldn't you be speaking?  } |

Kenji glares at Adelia. "You just couldn't keep your mouth shut could you?" He draws his blades and murmurs something about wizards and their egos. "Listen to me if this doesn't kill you I will unless you can contol it."

As the party continues to grow in impatience and tempers, Adelia simply stares at the creature, focusing all her attention on its features.
The stone blocks that shape it are carefully crafted, causing the construct to move with relative ease. More ease than she would have imagined. The small holes now pointed out by the other warns her of immenent danger. She would surely not like the idea of finding out firsthand what they are holding in store for any unfortunate souls.
Glancing downwards, she spies the radiating gloves. She knows there must be something about those gloves that must give way to this creatures existence. Possibly to its creator. And the fact that the creature is housed with the likes of the statues of these vile demons and such, only contributes to the growing tension with the others.
But she remains standing, staring back at the creature, with no words spoken. Yet.
Thinking in her mind, Could it be this simple? Or another ploy by whomever is watching us, testing our resolve and actions. This place reeks of death and destruction. By their actions, they have shown fear, and fear is for cowards.
She continues concentrating, as the threats from the others rise, even to the point of the threat on her life. But she simply stands her ground. Weapon down, and not in the manner that the others are. She simply waits. Concentrating. The eyes focusing into small slits, searching for an answer. The answer.
And she knows what she must do now....as she grins for the first time. Keeping her eyes focused, she simply waits for the reaction from the construct. No words muttered, but simply waiting for the exact moment...
Readying an action to shout one word. Should the construct make any move, including the lightning on its head, she will shout out the one word that will prove correct. It is the word that none have thought of. That when said, will be obeyed by the construct. No matter what!
And the word is....
OOC - (Sent Celebril the word she will shout via PM)
