So you and your trusty partner-in-crime managed to successfully steal the coveted blood of Lathander from the heavily guarded githyanki temple. The thrill of the heist still coursing through your veins, you were ready to trigger the exhilarating "4 turns to escape" scenario and make your daring getaway. But alas, something went awry, and the countdown never began. What could have possibly gone wrong? Fear not, for I have gathered some possible explanations and solutions for you to consider.
One possibility is that your friend, in a stroke of unintentional genius, inadvertently deactivated the bomb by inserting the stolen blood of Lathander into the pedestal. While this may have saved you from the imminent explosion, it also robbed you of the adrenaline-pumping escape sequence you were hoping for. Sneaky, but not quite what you were aiming for!
Another theory put forth by a fellow gamer is that you were meant to solve a puzzle involving ceremonial weapons located above, such as a mace or an axe, to obtain a Macguffin that would prevent the trap from triggering. If you failed to solve this puzzle and the destruction failed to occur, then it could be a bug in the game. Ah, the dreaded bugs that plague every gamer's existence.
Lastly, it was suggested that the explosion only happens if you fail to successfully steal the blood sample from the ceremonial mace, axe, or other weapons. So, if you managed to skillfully pilfer the blood, that might explain the lack of boom. While this may be a victory for you, it certainly dampens the dramatic effect of your grand heist.
Remember, these are just possible explanations, and it's always advisable to consult the game's official forums or support channels for more accurate information. The developers may have provided insights or solutions to this particular scenario. Don't let this setback discourage you, for there are still countless adventures awaiting you in the world of gaming. Happy gaming, and may the blood of Lathander continue to bring you both luck and chaos in equal measure!
