"The quiet one be a were I's wuild wannabe," Rezak says to the half-orc. "Nothin' be a there buts treasure," he continues rubbing his hands together.

"But our job is to find the source of the whispers, Rezak," says Celythia. "Kynar, the northwest tunnel? And be ready. I obviously cannot sure, but if there is a gaol or such around here, we could be dealing with somebody trying to tunnel their way out..."


OOC: I think we talked about a marching order of: Kynar, Rezak, Barek, Celythia, Caridoc.

The part crawls into the northwestern tunnel, with Kynar in the lead, relying on the light from Celythia's ring.

The tunnel branches off to the right. This small side passage reeks of foul odor, like a chamber pot. The walls are slimy and oozing.

Moving on, there is another branching, with tunnels ahead (north) and to the right (east). The one ahead proves to be a dead end, ending in a small cavity.

The tunnel to the east ends in roughly a T-intersection with a north-south tunnel. You can hear noises here but it's hard to say what they are or where they're coming from at this point.
 

"Let us stay silent," whispers Celythia. "So we don't alert anyone to our presence." With those words of caution spoken, she let's Kynar decide which direction the party heads from here.
 

Caridoc follows his companions into the northern tunnel. All the while keeping a guard against someone attempting to creep up on the party from behind.
 

Kynar would investigate the northern tunnel, attempting to remain as quiet as possible as he continued further, hoping there would soon be an opening where he can use his preferred weapons, and use his agility to his advantage.
 

The party heads down the northern tunnel, with Kynar in the lead.

The tunnel branches off to the right, but that branch soon becomes too small to continue through.

Following the main tunnel, you move a light wooden panel which covers a dimly lit cellar. The air is dry and smells of meats. Cured hams and sausages hang from the beams.

In the center of the cellar, there are signs of recent digging; the earth is darker, and a couple of shovels lie nearby. Something large could have recently been buried here. A couple of sacks of potatoes have been placed on the disturbed area.

A ladder leads upwards to a door, as in the other cellar. From the north, you hear sounds of what could be more digging, no doubt coming from another concealed tunnel.
 

Barek Fhald, half-orc bard

Not wanting to give warning to anyone with good ears, Barek points first to the ladder, then the direction of the sounds, raising his eyebrows to ask which they should take.
 

Celythia points in the direction of the digging. It was obvious to her that they were now in somebody else's cellar, and that someone was digging a tunnel under these homes. That last thing they needed to do was climb up into someone's house and end up arrested for breaking and entering.
