The kitchen
As you pass the door into the adjacent private room, it is clear that others are fighting. In the doorway in a pool of blood is a hide clad shaman. Further into the room are serveral more bodies, some servants and a couple who look like northmen in hide armor. Clearly a fierce battle took place here.
The kitchens are relatively calm until your force bursts in on the heels of thunderclaps. The room is very large and contains several work areas with oven, fire pits, and chilled stone slabs where food is being prepared. Small doors lead to wine cellars and larders, while opposite the doors you entered are double doors leading to another hallway of private rooms. Stairs down from the kitchen lead to storerooms of cooking gear, china, glassware and cutlery. On the lower level is also a large staff breakroom where several frightened servants are gathered. No one offers any resistence in these areas.
OOC: What now?
OOC: I was confused in your game. From the first couple of posts I had the idea he was in the room and then it just didn't make sense for him to go back out. I for one pictured him putting his back to a wall inside the room.
