As she waits for Jack to pick the lock, Bible eyes the dwarven shield. "Valda," she calls out, "you might want to use this shield in the fight to come. I'd use it myself, but as I'll be usin' Waithe, I wouldn't get no use out of it."

As she walks towards the chests, Bible adds to the giantess, "If the treasure is enough to buy a ship for me to go orf in search of my cap'n, then you will have earned your ransom."

Also, @Lidgar, you're at the doors at the southwest corner of the room, right? I'm pretty sure from comparing the maps that have been posted that the chief's hall is through the pair of doors at the center of the room.

Bible wipes the gore from Weythe's blade onto her wool skirt and approaches the young giant and her servant. ::Well done, my love,:: Bible addresses the giant-girl with endearment. ::You've done right to surrender and to avoid more fightin' and bloodshed. An act that befiks one of high birth...

I think it’s meant to reflect these are characters of 7th to 18th level who have survived the lower levels (at least in some part) because of their natural giftedness.

The "Music of the Valar" was the verbal component of the original spell, which created the world. The gods, who have intimate knowledge of the music, having sung it themselves, can directly empower and implant mortals with their insight, which is what's called divine magic, or mortals can...
