B6: The Veiled Society - IC

"Tay pay an a I's do." Rezak lies ignoring the 'your mother' barb. "Lookin' we is on dae same sides an all." he finishes going to stand in the corner.

Folding his arms across his chest Rezak waits for the interrogation to continue.

Seeing no further questions from the party, the watch man says "Let's go take a look at the house where they were staying."

It's tricky to bring along the unconcious hobgoblins without overly alarming the charmed and still limping one, but by carrying them 'gently' the party manages to get underway.

You go down the tunnel, past where the kobolds had been digging. The hobgoblin warns against going to the right fork near the end of the tunnel - "Is haunted!" he explains - so you continue ahead, to the cellar of the house they had been staying in.

Along the south wall of this cellar is a large pile of dirt. Near the open tunnel mouth is a small wheelbarrow. It is loaded with shovels and picks. Wooden beams are piled neatly in the center of the room. In the southeast corner is a ladder leading to a trapdoor in the ceiling.
 


Caridoc moves to one side to let the group pass as they came out of the room. He then latches on to the end of the line and resumes his usual task of keeping rear guard.
 


Barek Fhald, half-orc bard

Barek sticks close to the charmed hobgoblin, doing his best to reinforce it's magically-influenced cooperation. As they reach the 'home base,' he asks the hobgoblin, "There aren't any booby traps I've forgotten in my adle-minded state, are there?"
 

"Huh? Don't know of any traps. Don't know what kobolds did today" the hobgoblin tells Barek.

Up the ladder, Rezak encounters no one in the house. The small house has no furnishing other than an old bed, a desk, and one chair. Muddy tracks on the floor lead to a trapdoor.

On the desk is a near-empty bottle containing a thick brownish liquid. There is no label on the bottle, but near the top is the remains of a wax seal. It smells of wine, a smell Rezak knows well ;)
 

After giving the small house the once over Rezak joins everyone back in the cellar. "Tare bees no one a home," he says to the others. "But ups dare I'n sees anutter trapdoor an anutter bottle of brown juice."

[sblock=ooc] Was there a second trap door or was teh tracks leading to the way Rezak came through? And did anyone smell the first bottle of brown liquid? I'm sure some must have it's only natural to put a bottle to your nose when it is in your hand. I'm wondering if we have drunk kobolds running around digging tunnels and that maybe we will find them at the place that makes brown liquid. [/sblock]
