"He-re is wh-were it-t-t-t hap-p-ppPPened," simply says the crippled warrior.
"K-kk-klyman." Here. "Mig-gg-g-Grim." Right next to it. (He'd learned the names from Pieter, shortly after coming back). Several points in a row: "Orc-c-csu." And, finally, to a subtler splash on wall and ceiling, "B-b-b-bin-Binhar's hand-d." The one that started it all.
This is, strangely enough, the happiest place down here for him. The place where he escaped the dark pits of insanity. Where he found his mind again...
It's only been a few days, not even a month, and already it feels sort of nostalgic, just standing here...

Gargrim simply grimaces, staring off for a moment where Midgrim had fallen. Finally, he says, "Well, enough is enough. Let's secure our backsides before getting in too deep, eh?"
OOC: If we are in room 1, how about we check out that door north of the entrance. We'll clear the rooms around us before searching out the orc lair.

Exploration it is.
On their first door though, Klyman's absence is immediately felt...
"Exp-p-ppppert-t-t?" questions the crippled man after a pause, looking towards their two new members.
[sblock=OOC]I propose the following SOP for all doors we encounter?
1. Yrel checks for traps
2. While Vindar (our highest Wis PC) listens for noise and peers under/through
3. If nothing and unlocked, Gargrim opens and goes through.[/sblock]

Yrel, Elf Magic-User / Thief
Yrel looks from Vindar to the door and back again. "Are you asking me to do something? Here, why don't I check the door for traps and see whether it is locked." The Elf then moves forward, has the others move back so that they will be out of range of most bad things (15 feet, if possible), and then will check the dor for traps. If no traps are found, he will test it to see whether it is locked.

Vindar points, two-fingered, towards the Eastern door with a questioning eyebrow. There might be small trinkets hidden in the dust, a copper or two, but nothing that will take them towards the path to godhood.
Best to step lively in these abandoned parts.
As to Robert's question, he shrugs: his memories of the time before are alternatively crystal sharp and muddled, weirdly distorted. In all cases he has no understanding of what was being said though, remembered voices a roar of shouting/murmuring gibberish...
Maybe Gargrim can do better?

Gargrim only nods. The threat came more from the east. "Let's check out the southern door for traps and then go on through. We'll secure that and then north, before taking on the eastern passages once more."

Yrel moves to the southern door, limbers up his picks and spanner, listens carefully at the door, and then proceeds to go to work on the lock.

While the cloaked elf does his thing, the crippled man stiffly stares into the ruined 'guardroom', his sunken eyes taking-in the marks in the dust with horror: He remembers this place now. He- That was them! Their boots! Typhon's Fist. They'd come through here... *He'd* come through here. Through that door he just pointed to! Onwards, down stony corridors to those devilish skeletons that had slaughtered them...
They'd almost gone the exact same way again!
OOC: I think true North is to the left, i.e. not actually up in this case, but that was clear enough: we're going for the door at the bottom, next to the statue, right?

OOC: Yes, the door towards the bottom of the map, near the 'To Surface' words of the map. Sorry for the confusion.

The door is unlocked, and untrapped as you gingerly lift the catch. Listening as you work, you think you might hear the beastial sound of the orc language on the other side. Carefully cracking open the door you see that it leads to a corridor with an opening on your right, a closed door to the left and an opening to a larger room to the east. A faint glow of firelight is coming from the east, along with what is now more clearly orcish.

Vindar tears his gaze away from the guardroom, back to the matter at hand... Which sounds far worse, actually! His heart speeds up in his chest at the perspective of battle, although... "No sn-eak-k," he whispers to Gargrim, pointing to his right leg.
He'll have to be rear-guard if they go that way.

Gargrim looks at Vindar as if he's insane, then grips his mace tightly and whispers back. "We are not here to sneak. We are here to kill." Gargrim slips into the next room quietly, looking for the source of the orcish voices and not caring if Vindar and the rest follow or not.

The crippled man watches Gargrim *slip quietly* into the next room, before sharing an utterly puzzled look with Robert and Yrel: just what does the dwarf think sneaking means?
OOC: Rear-guard, behind everybody else, please.
