[sblock=insight]It's not really clear, but perhaps the boys sister, if there ever was a sister at-all, died in a cave in and he's just not ready to deal with it, now dragging a bunch of adults down into a cavern. Yet, there is a strangeness to the candle being lit here, and you can't help but recall the fleeting sense of being watched as you crossed that bridge.[/sblock]

Raghnall turns to the boy places a hand on his shoulder"Speak, tell us what has happened" Raghnall's gaze keeps drifting to the face and the candle.

Sobbing, "There was a tunnel here, but it started to close. We ran. She fell. I didn't look back. It took her, but she's still here!"

OOC: Some information might be gleaned with Perception (DC 20) at the moment.


He keeps pulling out more of the soft clay and stacking it.

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
Ersarkess tries to comfort the boy, but he is also wary, both that the boy lost his mind and that part of the sentence...

"What do you mean IT took her? What it?!" as the boy keeps working the clay Ersarkess speaks sharply "Sorweel! Enough!"
Assuming the boy snaps out of his frenzy
"You got us to help. But we need to know everything. Now. In detail."

Kilvo stands back, ready for the trouble that is certain to come. He is anxious to see hoe far down this rabbit hole the boy's insanity will take them.

The candle flickers out. The lantern still burns, however. A warm wind passes from the western edge of the chamber to the east.

As the boy takes his fingers and tries to shape the mouth and eyes of the mound, the mound suddenly "gasps" as the air passes over and through.

The boy gasps in his own way and mutters, "She lives! She lives! her voice!"

He points to the west. "We must go! There! Further!"

Many of you get the feeling this particular part of the cavern is absolutely not safe, and going further through this passage could result in having your return route eventually cut off by another cave-in.
