"Got me flint and steel right here. Problem Solved. Lets hope it dosnt come to burning an oil soaked rope. Well, Daggart anything down there?"

Daggart slowly makes his way down the polished staircase. His vision, full of colors available from the torch... Graffiti cover the walls with colorfull illistrations of small humanoids pulling down larger opponents, and celibration. The torch also raviels a drawing that gives the dwarf pause... a picture of the same small humaniods worshiping a much larger, skelatal dragon.

He continues on to come to the foot of the stairs. Sounds of running water can be heard through the structured room that the stair lead into. Paying closer attention to the beloria realm beyond the ring of light from the stone on the rope, dangling from Khaz's hand.

Khaz, ears trained to hear noises under background noises hears movement to the east, as if someone was trying to stay quiet and failed. It could have been anything, and the noise only lasted a second.

d = Dagart Kromdain (Just beyond the stairwell landing)
v = Vanlain Rockfire (On the stairs above Faust)
t = Tiptoe (Last on the stairs... can not see much do to the walls of the spiral staircase)

 

Dagart will head around to the south of the staircase to see if there's another similar passage heading south. After that, he'll move in for a closer look at the grafitti on the wall, and try to see if he can recognize what type of creatures are supposed to be represented.
 

Pulling his crossbow up, Faust whipsers to the others "I heard something trying to sneak twoards the east. I think we should check it out. I dont like getting ambushed much"

Dagart, moves so that he can view the southern portion of the room, and does indead see a simular passage there.

Looking at the drawings in the light of Khaz' spell, he notes only that the stick like figures int he drawing are all carrying long spear like weapons. They have little to no more detail then that.

No other sounds from the east (or any other direction) can be heard, other then the continuing rush of water inthe distance. The dwarves, used to the echoing effect of the underground structure determine that the water is to the north.
 



[tiptoe] split up?

OOC: Everything is finally a-ok in every respect.
Also, I'm assuming you meant the hitching posts to be Ds?

Tiptoe shivers a bit... he was certainly prepared to come alone, but it seems a shame to split up now.

"I come with you?" he says, pausing a moment. Tiptoe turns to the north, squinting a bit "Or to the..." unable to find the word, he makes swimming gestures frantically, pointing to the north passageway.

"If it goes away, why follow? It goes, we go?" shrugging, he resigns himself to the decision of the group.
 


Heading east, the group all begin to hear scrapping noises. Soon, a glowing faint light can be seen int he hallway that the passage to the east tees into. It seems that there is light coming from the north and south of that new corridor!
