Inspect
''You blink your eyes several times just to be sure they aren't deceiving you. What you see is... Astounding! A tall, blue woman is sitting on a massive marble throne. She only wears some sort of feather cape, and her naked body is covered in runes. Ah, and she is guarded by four gigantic cats. She doesn't seem to have noticed you, but the cats have. They purr and lick their paws while staring at you with their disdainful eyes.''

Relevant Skills:  Scavenging, Courage , Wisdom  ''Those cats... Are scary! You try to hail the woman from a safe, far enough position, but she doesn't seem to notice you. In fact, she doesn't seem to be moving at all. You even wonder if she's not asleep. There's no beating around the bush: if you want to check her out, you'll have to get pass these monstrous felines.''
 * Advance with confidence ( Courage )
 * Success : You take a few confident steps toward the throne, and the annoying cats. The four of them freeze in an instant and start hissing at you! You're at paws' reach, but weirdly they don't make any move toward you. You come safely closer to the throne, and can check out the blue woman in detail. She is not sleeping. She is in some sort of trance, her blank eyes staring into the void.
 * Try to wake her.
 * You think that maybe some physical contact would wake her up. You take a step toward her, but you seem to have crossed an invisible line... In a blink of an eye, you feel four pairs of claws ripping through your back! You scream in pain, fall on your knees and crawl out of reach of the four guardian beasts.
