Pyros gets a solid hold of the crown in one hand, and pulls his sharpest dagger. He begins to try to saw on the webbing attached but the dagger quickly gets caught as well. Fortunately, the nimble kender avoids becoming stuck himself. He tries to pull the crown and the dagger free, but simply isnt strong enough.

Finally Cross appears in one archway and the party is now completely present.

"If we had a way to secure the crown we could end all of the webbing with a fire," suggests Jerry

"Do we have any rope available? I could wrap some around, and send the end out to a stronger type, while I guide it."

Artanis produces 25 ft of silk rope. Try to keep it out of the webbing, eh? he says with a small smile

"I don't, sorry, Nocturno," reponds Jerry with a slight shake of her head.

Making a slip knot to surround the crown, then holding the rope up in the middle so it avoids the web, he will make sure to keep it out of the webbing as the rest pull.

Pyros ties the rope around the high peak of the crowm, the rim being stuck still in the web. Passing the rope to those along the edge, he keeps it clear of the sticky structure. With a steady pull, Pytor and Karl drag the artifact free of it's magical snare. Though the metal lools like pure gold, it proves much sturdier; bearing no injury from the force of the tow.

Pytor whistles low, gazing at the object of their quest as the blood red gems glitter almost with an inner light...

Jerry studies it trying to recall if it looks like one she may have seen in a visison just before being dumped in this unpleasant land. Well, unpleasant apart from her colleagues.

Pyros examines the stones and, while they resemble the ones found earlier, there are none missing and these are of a much higher quality.

Jerry inspects the crown relative to her dream and the sketch she made in her fugue state... the duplication could not be more exact.

She says, "This is exactly as I recall from my vision. I'm going to test the strength of its magicality. Does anyone want anything else tested for magic?"

After hearing any reposnses she does the Detect Magic thing..

Jerry casts her spell and turns to the crown. The glow emanating from the crown is so overwhelming as to be nearly blinding. Never had she personally witnessed such magical energy. This was truly an object of Artifact-level power...

"Wow it's powerful! Anyone need anything else examining for whether it's magical or not?" queries the Mystran. She squints at the crown a little longer to see if she can perceive its aura: what types of magic are involved.

Jerry squints at the crown, but cannot determine anything specific through the intense aura

[The only other clearly magical thing they don't knos much about is Pyros' thorn-bracelet
