Alright. We're bound to have stumbled through every possible positioning of the two levers we have reached. Who's to say that the third lever controls the second door? Maybe the third lever turns off the acid. Maybe something else controls that door. Did we leave the secret door open behind us? Have we looked for anyplace to stick those skeleton keys or the wooden blunt? Does anyone have the skills "perform: sexy dance" or "profession: gigolo?" There has got to be a way past this that doesn't involve our hero and his pet dwarf getting sprayed with acid again and again and again and again...
Any ideas now that we've slept on it?

Why don't I summon a skeleton? We command it to go play with the middle lever. That way none of us gets sizzled while we experiment. Can't believe I didn't think of it sooner. |

as an outsider I think you should kill Rene and then bring him back as a zombie. Then he can die over and over again without pain.

The skeleton is a great idea. Rene as a zombie... Not so much. Todd, you have no idea how creepy Rene's character is already. Whistling zombie lips might give me nightmares.

When I first saw this I read "Ryan" instead of "Rene". Bringing Ryan back as a zombie is starting to appeal to me. |

I still think those key-like finger bones from the skeletons must mean something. There were four of them, could they be inserted in the four acid spray holes to disarm them? Do these holes look like a key would fit them? I am pretty sure we have tried every possible outcome with the two levers, there must be something else involved.
Does this even have to be the way into the tower? Maybe it's the way out. Maybe we should send the dwarf into the sink hole to check it out. It is his element after all.

I am thinking the holes are for Hin willies, but I wasn't there so how would I know?

I knew when given enough time to contemplate the water jugs he would figure it out. |

Because dwarf-bashing is as easy as Felosial on a friday night...
Cities Made of Stone (to the tune of "Castles Made of Sand" by Jimi Hendrix)
On the message board he lies about the whole Hin race
He's just a-babbling on like a mental case
Now it can't be denied
Everybody knows that dwarves are all fools
I had to set him straight, and now i feel bad
But he kept rambling on like he was stark raving mad
"The Hin live in burrows like the forest beasts"
I'm afraid it's time his crazy talk has got to just cease
They live in cities made of stone
Under your feet
They smell like sheet
A little Dwarven doorman who before he was forty
Picked on, pushed around, his "friends" called him "Shorty"
And he built up a dream that he'd find someone smaller
He would be so fearless if he could only be taller
The neighborhood watch finally let him tag along
And he noticed the Hin there amongst the throng
And he started making statements that were all just wrong
He couldn't get a single thing even slightly right
They live in cities made of stone
Under your feet
They smell like sheet
And he kept on talking, how the Hin live in the ground
He was too dense to notice the Hin's angry frown
And the Hin and finally had enough
So he decided to reply
"Dwarven women have beards 'cause they all fuck their kin
And the men don't shave--it sops up cum from their chins
They're inbred and deviant, it's why the smart ones stay
So deep underground out of the light of day"
And he really didnt have to stop, he could keep on going...
They live in cities made of stone
Under your feet
They smell like sheet

I think you may be correct on your last assessment. We should investigate the sinkhole to make sure we've exhausted all other points of entry. It's entirely possible that this location is simply a trap or that the lever mechanisms are broken. |

I know that the one that shoots out acid is not broken. |

Bringing back Ryan as a zombie is starting to appeal to me, too.

I don't suppose you can summon it by the third lever. |

I don't suppose you can summon it by the third lever. I don't see why not. I can summon it anywhere within a certain range. Ryan? What's your ruling? |
