Korbryn peers into the pit, hoping that his dwarfsight will provide a better clue as to what lies below.

"It will be a happy day when we encounter some small folk with magical gear -- but then again, small folk usually aren't evil." Lenuran says with a wry smile while surveying the scene.
"Oh there are plenty of goblins, kobolds, dark stalkers, and xvarts to fill out the ranks of evil hordes in the world. So far though this cult seems to favor gnolls, men, and elves for its minions. The scaled one was a bit of a surprise to me. Do you remember any other races mentioned from the last uprising of the Temple Lenuran?"
The priest considers. "I will proceed with my attempt to wrest some answers from the spirit of the assassin." Miltiades then begins to intone his incantation, attempting to draw out the knowledge encased in the dead man's skull.
"Well, let me think about that." Lenuran says as he scrunches his eyes and looks blankly towards the ceiling, deep in thought.
"I recall trolls, giants, humans, gnolls, bugbears....but no smallfolk, it would appear that they had no interest in elemental evil... or the cult had a height requirement." He chuckles heartily, then realizes he is the only one laughing. "You all don't have a sense of humor." He says as he frowns and walks over to the pit where Thandis and Kobryn are looking downward.
"Thandis - I could make something very bright to drop down into the hole to illuminate things a bit more."
OOC: Can cast Light on something handy and disposable, then drop it into the hole.
The Kid holds up his hand, perhaps a bit perfunctorily. He was uncomfortable with his real name being bandied about. "Let the dwarf look first. No reason to awake anything prematurely."

Ithiken pulls out the items that he detect as magical and lays them by themselves in a part of the room. "Here are the magical items, gents. The rapier, the buckler, and the black cloak with silver lines." He also seperates the small, individual items. "We also have a scroll of some sort... haven't tried to read it yet... a copper vial that I expect is a potion, this here wand, and finally another potion that I'm pretty sure cures moderate wounds. Heh... I've drunk enough of those to know."
The same unnatural cold floods the bones of the sturdy dwarf. A rope is dangling down and disappears into the darkness, it's the pulley's rope.
A Second ledge can be seen 10 ft. down from where Korbryn stand, it is another tunnel but it is filled with water as the dwarf realizes when he spot a stream of water coming out from there. A waterfall carry the water into the depth of the unknown and the rope is going that way too.
Action
Miltiades – Speak with the dead.
Chatrilon corpse – Will save [Failed]
Without even looking at Miltiades, the dead corpse stares into the chamber's ceiling as her mouth begins to move. What is that you seek, you accursed and vile priest?

After explaining to his companions what he had seen, the dwarf takes a guard position to watch the hall outside. He stays close enough to hear what passes between Miltiades and the corpse of the treasure seeker.

"Should we pull on this rope?"says the small gnome as he hears the unnatural speech of the corpse from behind him -- he immediately turns around with his mouth somewhat agape.
"Egads -- that is something you don't see everyday!"

Miltiades first attempts to positively Identify the enemy organization "What is the cult you served?"

I serve no one. I'm a free spirit, working for the highest bidder.
The dead corpse replies as blood spits from her mouth and stains the floor I worked for the secret cult in Hommlet, they worship some hideous and evil god, the elder elemental eye I think.

The dead man continue Master Dunrat, Chensai the priestess, Toridan the Orc blooded, Grune the swordsman and Vacra the wizardess, Maridosen the Barkeep are all from Hommlet.
In The moathouse I know Gren the priestess, but she is up dead, Master Thaque, the cult’s leader were killed by the blue wyrm, I suspect Geynor Ton and Ysslansh are already dead, I left them in the pit’s room to fight the adventurers from Hommlet.
Then his voice is silent for good.
From the Hommlet list he mentioned, four of them are suppose to be dead, those are the ones you fought in the Welcome wench. You remember Maridosen the barkeep who fought and almost killed Lenuran before she jumped out of the window and crushed in the court outside, Master Dunrat who fought Miltiades and blasted the room with a pearl of power also fled from the second story and was killed by the Kid, Chensai the Priestess is probably the woman who were killed in the common bed room, as you recall founding a holy symbol and scrolls on her, you don't remember who was the last fighter you killed.
As for the Moathouse list, It is a common sense to realize that you are the adventurers from Hommlet, and Geynor and Ysslansh are the two dead priests who lies next to Chatrilon's body.

"Seems likely we've dealt with the cult 'ere," growls Korbryn in his low, gravelly voice. "Still, we should check below t' be sure."
