1. A Sandy Beach

A peaceful bay?
The water is blood-red and the sandy bottom seems to boil just below its surface.
At one end, the bay fades into a jungle.
At the other it is flanked by a rocky height which borders the Lava Molt's volcano.

"Hey, big thing thing, Nor smell shiny!"
Nor sees the diamond egg and gravity shifts in front of the egg in an attempt to rip it out of the portal and makes Nor center pull of local gravity so it would come to him.


Nor is "helping" round up the egg as well. Submit a roll!
If you roll high you will be successful.

Hmph. I try to ascertain if the strange red water will hurt me if I touch it. If it seems okay, I'll try poking my finger into the water. IFF nothing I try implies that the water might do damage, I rock back and forth, hold my breath, and capsize my boat.

The water appears more eerie than harmful, suggesting the oiliness of fresh blood.

Capsizing the boat causes no answering spark of magic, nor does it allow you to make more progress.
Your dive beneath the surface shows you a whole ecosystem beneath the waves, however, so perhaps diving in the Bay proper could yield more avenues for exploration.

"Alright". I also manipulate the gravity around the egg. Hopefully having two deities doing this won't cause anything to blow up.

Thanks AIiCE. I assume the roll will be counted when 4 people help or when the 8 days are up?

Nah, I think I'll try for the jungle. I try rowing the boat upside down and backwards, both through the straightaway and the side passages. If that yields no results, I'll right my boat and try rowing backwards again - this time through the side passages.

When you back water, you suddenly find yourself approaching the jungle at high speed.

You also come crashing against a floating raft. Investigating, you realize it has a diamond egg in it, wrapped in frosty threads. You acquire the egg.
At any time, you may choose to hatch this egg. You may also leave it in the egg. The egg has been added to your profile.

Puzzle resets. If someone chooses to revisit this puzzle, they will find it changed enough to try again. The next winner will receive a mini-egg.

Well by all means I'll hatch it! I also continue to the jungle.
