Constables of the 14th Ward

[Fenris]

Raul finds that the box contains perhaps 1500 sp.

Thea and Jonas move toward the exits and find that in addition to the tunnel through which you entered there is another tunnel roughly opposite leading off to the east. Jonas discovers that Wally has gotten there before him and is sculking around the columns of naturally formed stone that are similar to the ones on the other side of the cavern. He turns suddenly as Jonas approaches with a light and a large bat is startled flying off down the tunnel. "I thought there might be another trap on this side, but so far I haven't found anything."

"Well, we'll find out soon enough I guess." replies Jonas.

***************************************
As the group sets up camp for the evening and the air becomes heavy with the smell of mutton, Jonas becomes a bit worried about attracting more visitors. But then thinks other denizens would just think the giant was having his dinner anyway. Still Jonas takes Bruno down to the new exit to keep watch, eyes, ears and nose on the alert.

Moru Sen, human conjurer

"Excellent idea, friend Darius! " The knight realizes he is quite hungry as well. "I shall gladly take the first watch, that you all may dine in peace."

Moru, still limping from his boulder encounter, says, "I won't be much good without a chance to recharge. If I can get 8 good hours sleep, I can take the last watch ready for trouble again."

Darius quietly informs Raul (outside of Wally's hearing) that many of the coins appear to be electrum rather than silver. After thoroughly checking his pack, Darius realizes that he can't find any of Wally's mushrooms, so he just asks Raul (who has the 1st aid kit) to help bind his wounds. [highlight] "Since it's still early in the day, it's going to be longer-than-normal camp - there should be plenty of time for everybody to rest, even if we have overlapping shifts."[/highlight] he says before joining Jonas on the first watch. Darius also plans to volunteer for the last watch. Let's let the spell-users refresh themselves before taking a watch, he thinks.

Raul gives Darius an incredulous stare at the news, but says nothing, thinking to himself, "I didn't see anything but silver."

Pulling out the healing kit, Raul cleans and binds Darius' wounds, "Ooo, that's a nasty one" and then moves to Moru and the others, one by one. After seeing to his fellow constables and Wally, Raul asks the former prisioners, "Are any of you injured?"

Once Raul breaks out the healing kit, Thea heads over to his side and speaks a few quiet words. "Some of the shrapnel from that trap bit me pretty deep, and we didn't have time to deal with it before the fight. I would appreciate it if you'd check the injury, since we're far from clerical treatment."

OOC: Thea took some damage from the trap- and more importantly she blew her saves, so we had probably better see if the healing kit can help. It is tough to do verbal components with lockjaw, and the nearest tetanus shot is too far away to matter...

"No, those of us who were injured at all by the giant were injured fatally. We who still live are fine. I offer my services to help count the money, as well." He winks at Raul. "I can tell the difference between electrum and silver quite well!" Then, almost as an after thought he adds, "In fact, some of that coin was taken from us, too...."

OOC: Good thinking, Thea. We'll take the efforts into consideration.

Jonas and Bruno

Jonas and Bruno find a comfortable patch of lichen on which to sit, but there is nothing else happening at the entrance besides Bruno wanting a bit of lovin' from his best bud and master.

Jonas and Bruno find a comfortable patch of lichen on which to sit, but there is nothing else happening at the entrance besides Bruno wanting a bit of lovin' from his best bud and master.

OOC: Not that a bacterio-fungal symbiont isn't comfortable, but perhaps a nice cushy bryophyte could be found.

Jonas sits and absently rubs Bruno's head and ears. He thinks about the former captives and what they would do with them, they had to go back to the surface, but that would mean a delay in finding the halfling. And then there were the sheep. How did the giant feed the sheep anyway. There had to be access to fodder down here, he couldn't count on a steady supply to steal. Perhaps they grazed on some fungus farm the giant had, but sheep wouldn't last long on mushrooms.

OOC: Most bryophytes prefer more moist environments than this dry hole.

OOC: Perhaps these are a new breed of "Cave Sheep" that relish lichen and even can eat rocks? Or, Jonas realizes, maybe it is more likely that both the sheep and the other captives were taken during the same raid....
