I will check the far door. Norim announces as he walks towards it.
While Dacen and Gordon discuss justice, and Dacen ministers to the wounded, Norim checks the far door. Xenon and Nemos back him up. The far door is barred from the inside.
"What would an ogre want to keep out?" Xenon wonders aloud.
Nemos removes his leather cap, and he presses an ear against the door. "I don't hear anything."
Back in the cell, the conscious prisoner, who has introduced himself as Ian, says to Dacen, "When do we get out here? I'm strong enough to walk." To prove his assertion, Ian rises awkwardly to his feet, bracing himself against the wall.
Dacen ministers to other two men. One of them groans. His eyes flutter and then snap open. He flails in a panic, mouth distended, but Dacen calms him down after a bit. Gordon and Dacen tell the newly conscious man about his rescue. Tears well in his eyes.
The third man, even after Dacen's ministrations, remains unconscious. He is truly in a bad way. One more day in this hellish place would likely have seen him die.
