[QUOTE="jkason, post: 5897134, member: 2710"] Anaerion continues his reading as Kalgor sends Gragnor into the final tunnel, moving his position to be closer to that one as he continues mapping. Kanli is by this point well and truly asleep, though interestingly enough even his snoring, like his words, seems slightly off-kilter. As Tyrien relays her question, the half-orc (coincidentally or not) seems to talk in his sleep: [color=red]"The prey is the hunter which eats its mother. The silkworm brings its breeders beauty through its forest's death."[/color] Ausk continues his patrol, nerves on edge as nothing continues to happen, while Tyrien has by now set up the notes and books in a tidily stacked pile for whomever will be hauling them out of the cavern. [sblock=Ausk]Despite his misgivings, Ausk hears nothing but Anaerion's murmuring and the echoes of dripping water, and sees even less in the way of activity.[/sblock] [sblock=Tyrien]From what Tyrien's been able to determine, whether it is wandering about the streets or somewhere below them, wherever the creature is it didn't come back through here to get there.[/sblock] [sblock=Anaerion]The wizard and his intelligent item gather than the ritual in the Sunless Grove was meant to create a planar portal, though the notations seem to indicate it wouldn't be usable for travel out of this plane, but only into it.
