Looking down the corridor, checking for anything familiar, Michael states: "I suggest we check out left, so we're sure we can use this hallway to get back where we started. After that, we could check on the right hallway."
"Hmmm that sounds okay..." Thomas follows behind the others, making sure to keep his eyes open. "How do you think Arithel is doing?", he asks of no one in particular.
Michael leads the way back to the left. It does indeed lead around a corner to the junction in front of the room that Arithel is safely esconced in. Thomas checks as you pass by that no trace of any other creatures have come this way and that there is no evidence of the hidden room that Syfis has made for him.
Michael turns everyone around and goes back to the T-junction that you just came from (see post above). From this point you head back north. After a short while you come to another T-junction. This one heading east/west. To the west you can see the tunnel that you initially came down from the entrance cave. Looking east you can see that about 50 feet down there is a tunnel branching off to the north and the tunnel that you are in continues out of your light range.
((sorry about the delay with the map, will try to have it up tonight.))
"Uhm, south looks fine", says Thomas. He understands the reason behind wanting to get rid of the ogre-bugs once and for all, but would rather be with the angel boy, helping him get to the village.
Turning back south at the T-junction you move back towards the natural cavern towards the bottom of the tunnel system. You are little more than 30 feet down the corridor when Lomas hears a sound coming from behind. He and Thomas look back behind to the T-junction just as two bug-ogres come scuttling around the corner clinging to the ceiling.
((most of you are suprised except Thomas and Lomas who made their Listen checks, you are travelling in your standard marching order and have been ambushed from behind. Suprise round from those two first, then we will get to round 1.))
"Behind us!" Lomas cries out as soon as he hears the familiar scuttling sound. He turns and realizes that they've already closed in on the group.
As soon as possible, Lomas will fly back from the bugs, making sure the more heavily armored members of the group are between them. He will then engage them in the mindscape (Brain Hammer +0) and lash out at the closest with Ego Whip.
"Watch out!", Thomas echoes the cry by Lomas. He spins around to face the creatures and lets fly the arrow he had nocked. Slowly, he backs away from the advancing ogre-bugs.
