The length of shackles does not budge beneath the weight of the rodent, so you cast your eyes toward the slightly taller, even fatter rat. The gnome catches the intent of your stare and glares back.
“Fine.” Bredbeddle hisses as she clambers up onto the scale, setting the machination into a winding freefall down. The scale clicks with a clack as, with the sound of stone against stone, the rigid rock door set into the room’s wall opens to reveal the dark ahead. “Ah! It’s opened--”
The gnome begins to move off the scale to set ahead, but the moment she does, the scale winds back up and the door along with it. You watch the iron door slam shut with a clatter of dust. “Oh, I see. This won’t do. We’ll have to keep the scales even for the door–not too heavy, not too light.” You observe. “How much do you weigh, Bredbeddle?”
“Uh.. about 3 SLUGS. Though, that’s a normal weight for gnomes of my size..” She adds quickly. “Why not just have the wild woman hold it open with those cannon arms of hers?”
“There’s some magic to this door mechanism. You could ask her to try, but you could seriously injure her. I’d rather not risk it if we can.” Sigrid folds her arms. “If you ask me, we ought to just cut the fat from our party and leave the gnome behind.. but I suppose we’ll have to find another weig–”
“I am NOT FAT.” Bredbeddle barks back at her.
