A Merc's Life: Howl of the Carrion King [02]

[renau1g]

Aodhan bravely acts as rearguard.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

You enter a wide room supported on each end by crumbling stone columns. The room appears empty of life.

[sblock=OOC]It is dark in here. Darkvision works normally; low-light vision is sufficient in this room but likely won't be once you enter the next; regular vision is useless here.[/sblock]

Houwlou Groulenas

Houwlou has no difficult operating in these dim environs. "Let's check these three openings on the other side of this room," he says, indicating one to the west and two to the north.

Keeland

With a nod, Keeland assents to Houwlou's suggestion.

 

[Leif]

Houwlou Groulenas

Taking Keeland's assent as attributable to the entire party, Houwlou heads over to the western-most door, and listens. "Grrr, I'm not very good at this sort of thing. Tsadok, you seem to be possessed of a high degree of awareness, why don't you listen?"

OOC: Houwlou has still made a listen attempt, please note.

[Maidhc O Casain]

All of the exits from the room are doorways rather than doors. Houwlou hears nothing through the western door.

 

[Leif]

Houwlou Groulenas

In that case, Houwlou will lead the group through the doorway cautiously, sword and dagger in hand (paw).

Harnrey quickly casts low light vision with out any ado or fanfare.

Tsadok

Before the group proceeds, Tsadok will hold Houlwlou back and listen intently to see if anything might be heard before proceeding. Then he will fall in line in the natural marching order.

Houwlou Groulenas

Houwlou [barely] resists the urge to smack the pushy Tsadok, and lets him listen at the door.
