"Yes, of course. We already sent a runner out to notify the Hunter and the halfling of our plans. With luck, they will return shortly with our runner." Captain Niko replies. "I see you are ready to set off, so I'll delay you no further than to wish you luck." With that, Niko turns and gets back to work supervising the people's preparations to evacuate.
Returning down the passages towards the gate you entered this place from, you find the darkness to be heavy as a lead blanket around you. The dead silence is only broken by the scrape of your boots on the stone and your breath leaving your bodies. Amazingly, you encounter no enemies until you Come within sight of the gate itself. Far in the distance you can make out the light of the gate playing over the cavern. Upon the bridge stands Allahastor, weaving magicks of power in a ritual not yet completed. Beside him is a large wolf, growling at him menacingly but not disturbing him enough to break his concentration. Between them and yourself is a pale man in hide armor leaning on a staff and watching the wizard with untrusting eyes. It must be Balthazar.
[sblock=OOC]The party is at a corner turning into the final passage leading to the gate. The path to the gate is 10' wide and there is about 80' between you and Balthazar. From here, you have the chance to make any final preparations before moving forward to engage. From here you can speak or cast and not be heard, but moving closer will be difficult to do undetected unless you ALL can make good move silently checks.[/sblock]
