Shroom cave? You mean Mushroom huh, you messy non understandable creature.
Maelicent's face darkens beneath the rim of his tusk-studded helmet in response to the perceived slight. Instinctively he takes a step backwards and draws the arrow he'd had knocked. The temperamental goblin spits out a fiery retort. "Ya want a pound a me hide ya white broken bastard? C'mon. I'll finish what yer mama shoulda done wit ya."

"Um, Mael, the bad guys are that way," Brakkus says pointing toward the rest of the cave. "He's not much to look at I'll grant you, but its the Magic Rod that makes him annoying, not his fault."

Mama? Mama! You little rat!!! I would have shrunk you to the size of a mouse if I weren't like you.
The outraged grumpy dwarf continues to curse in mixed dwarven and goblin tongue everything he might think off.

Magic you want, I'll show you magic!! It's all Dter's fault, curse upon his lineage, curse upon the rod, and curse upon the world.

After shouting and cursing all around the cave the dwarf leans on the cave's wall, sobbing at his miserable condition, the goblin's words were much more painful then a real arrows.
 

Seeing that the belligerent dwarf was all bluster and no bite, Maelicent seems content to let the matter drop once his barbed words have reduced the albino to a weeping wretch on the floor. In the shadow of his helmet's brim, the malicious Gudwulf allows a pointy toothed grin to spread across his face. Raising his bow once more, the goblin turns and skulks back out of the tunnel and into the crystal cave, leaving the other giant-kin to collect their dwarf friend. Maelicent moves to the chamber's column (C-3) and, hiding himself (Hide +13, taking 10), takes up a defensive position to guard the room's two other exits against intruders while waiting for his allies to join him. Alone in the darkness, the goblin chuckles softly to himself.
 

With Maelicent skulking at C3 inside the crystal cavern and the others at the ready, Gamad is left to bemoan his ill fate back in the tunnel bottleneck. The dwarf's last shout echoes wildly in the caves. As Brakkus, Chev, and Voadam check gear and armor straps in preparation for what lies ahead, everyone's ears prick several seconds later to the sound of a heavy piece of metal banging against stone with a thunderclap as a door is opened somewhere in the dark recesses of the cavernous network of tunnels.
 


Shaking his head at the exchange between the dwarf on goblin, Chev is reminded of stories of disputes between soldier sof the same army.

"I say we check out this digger or whatever might be making that noise."
 


After the door thunders open with a clap, the cave falls silent for a few seconds. A beat or two later, everyone hears heavy footfalls. The rocks embedded amidst the dirt of the cavern shudder and groan at the impending approach of the apparently large creature. Voadam dodges to the side as a chunk of mineral falls from the low ceiling and narrowly misses skewering his shoulder. Just then, the heavy footfalls cease and are replaced by the sound of labored breathing and the scrape of fur and hide against rock. Judging by the muffled but loud nature of the sounds, something very large is trying to squeeze through a narrow passageway, and whatever it is will come up via the tunnel just to the south. Dirt clods and shards of rock fall to the cavern floor, shaken loose by the rumbling approach of the creature.
