Read aloud

Say this

The west gate buckles inward, and the horns shriek hard enough to rattle your teeth. A giant reaches for the central lamp while black glass grinds across the east door, and Odd Vale clutches the Floor Log case.

  2. 3

The battlefield

Zones

  1. 1

    West Gate25 ft

    Hull-plated entry with the west door and two 10-foot scream horns set into the walls.

  2. 2

    Lamp Floor25 ft

    A waist-high central lamp throws hot amber light across the floor; the Floor Log rests in its locked case beside it.

  3. 3

    East Door25 ft

    The east door opens toward the Atrium. The Colossus can block the doorway while the remaining horns cover the approach.

What the party can use

At initiative count 20, each active horn screams: DC 17 Constitution save or take 4d6 thunder damage.
A creature adjacent to a horn can use an action to muffle it with a DC 18 Strength (Athletics) check; success silences it for 3 rounds.
The central lamp can be shuttered or covered, denying the Hearth-Quencher its feeding point.
The hull walls provide full cover; the W, E, and Atrium doors are narrow chokepoints.
