After steadying your breathing upon realizing the torches were not a trap you finish examining the room, scribbling descriptions of the coffin into a notebook. You then go over to the writing on the wall and to your surprise, you are able to easily translate it given that it is unown script, something closer to modern language. You read it aloud to make sure you understand it and Heimdall nods along like he understands. After contemplating who this "Keeper of knowledge" might be you ask Sprocket to take some pictures of the Unown script who happily does with lots of flashes before moving on to the next room where presumedly the test lies. You walk through the room leaving the sarcophagus behind. You walk for a short time before coming upon another room. This room is more square shaped where the previous one was a circle. On the far wall just across about a dozen feet away are two stone doors with more of the same decorations that were on the sarcophagus: pyramids, shinx at the same scale, and the disc with the triangle below it. Above it is more Unown writing that says: "The PHARAOHS are Plenty, Holy, Absolute, Splendid, Absolute, Merciful, Holy, Revered. HOROS is..." In front of the door on the floor, you see tiles of stone that have more of the same lettering. You see from left to right: Absolute, Splendid, Revered, Holy, Plenty, Merciful. You can tell just from looking that the tiles are designed to sink when stepped on. With that, you don't see anything else of interest outside of additional torches providing light to the room. Heimdall does let you know that he can feel a presence beyond the far door. What will you do?

With the Gyarados attempting to flee, it fell on you to make the call to finish it off and risk angering it more, along with the possibility of more combat, or to let it flee and risk it coming back. You can already feel the rain weakening as it starts to make its way back down the river when you call out for your Decidueye to Spirit Shackle it in place. While you doubt this would have worked with it at full strength the weaker and paralyzed Gyarados seems to be unable to move further despite the attack doing little damage with the mega pokemon's dark typing. It turns around with water leaking from its mouth to blast with another hydro pump but is met with the continual super effective blows from your pokemon, along with more electric moves and signal beams from Tron. The Empoleon mom stands nearby, not offering anymore attacks but recuperating. And with the combined final assault the Gyarados comes crashing down to its side. Defeated. It begins to glow and shrink, and it actually shrinks more than you were expecting. It seems, while the Gyarados was large even compared to yours, the Mega Evolution accounted for much more of the size increase than normal. Gendra calls out her Talonflame and speeds over to the fallen beast as per your instructions to search for the mega stone. It doesn't take long, as Seebor and Tron care to Owen she flies up to its mouth and pauses with wide eyes for a second before she and her pokemon pry something from behind one of its teeth. She comes back with what looks like a beach ball sized cluster of pearls stuck together. Except they aren't pearls, they are Megastones. "This was all I could find. It may have swallowed more but this seems to be the biggest root of the problem." She explains. The porygon z looks worried over its trainer but then does a move you recognize as Pain Split and transfers some of the damage to itself allowing Owen to regain conscious. The grizzled Viking starts awake but quickly relaxes with a smile. "The rain's stopped. We did it. Right?" He asks. How do you respond?
Ymir, Argo, Thor and Balerion each gain 2 levels. Sigurd and Atalanta each gain 5 levels.
