Round 5 Transcript

Jeane’s eyes flicker as the arcane glyph beneath the moss hums softly, revealing a faint, silver‑lined ward of the Arcane type that extends in a 30‑foot radius around the pressure plate. The spell ends with a gentle pulse, leaving no trace on the stone.

Jeane traces the silver lines with her eyes, then raises both hands again. Arcane Mapping—reveal connections. A swirl of shadow and light erupts from beneath her palms, spreading across the ward in a intricate web of glowing threads. The pressure plate triggers a resonance cascade—three points of failure, linked through this central sigil here. Disabling it requires precision, not brute force. The spell's illumination fades slowly as Jeane lowers her hands, leaving her with a clear mental map of the trap's structure. We can pry that plate without tripping the spikes if we break the connection at these two outer runes first—carefully. Her eyes narrow as she studies the glyphs. Or we could overload the entire ward with a single powerful burst of disruptive magic, but that risks alerting whatever lies beyond.
