The Adventure in the Mines starts here!

Gavril

Eager to see the mines which have brought them so far, Gavril starts forward, crossbow at the ready. "Might was well see what all the fuss is about."

Into the Depths

As the party approaches the upper level of the stepped mining area (see map in Post #1) they are greeted by three separate shafts, each with a winch, a 2" thick hempen rope, and a wicker basket. The shafts are about 16 feet in diameter and descend straight down into the ground. The walls are braced by wooden planks, and are rough hewn flint. The party cannot see to the bottom of any of the shafts - it's dark down there!

"Look a little like snake holes eh boys?"

Béar

Béar will inspect the ropes, winches, and baskets to see which one (if any) would be the safest to use.

Béar will then attach his silk rope and grappling hook to the top of which ever hole the party will use.

Into the Depths

There is no appreciable difference in condition between the three wench supports and mechanisms.

Béar

"If nobody objects, I'll go first."

Athelstan

"I certainly don't object - your battle prowess has been well proven. However, it might be wise to ask the little one to sneak down and see what he can see (if he's willing, that is). He could probably get down and up without being noticed by anything down there, and it would be good to know what we're getting into.

Also, which shaft shall we look into first?"

 

[Scotley]

Gavril

Somewhat crudely Gavril notes, "It doesn't matter which hole you choose, but what you do once you are in it. Let's start with that one," he adds pointing to #2. "Will you serve as scout?" He asks the little fey.

OCC - how much light is penetrating down the hole?

" I don't mind but I wont be able to see much past the light shaft and taking a light source would defeat the sneakiness."
