From Citadel to Bastion: The Sunless Citadel

Eshand takes a rather critical look at his crossbow, then looks up at the rest of the party with a complete look of utter innocence upon his face, "dang thing is broke. It isn't working at all!"

Florian gingerly examines his wound and hisses. "Ah, that stings. Had worse, though," he says knowingly as he removes a flask from his belt and takes a swig from it. "That'll take th' edge off, fer now. Wanna spot, Lucas?"

"That's a little dangerous now, don't you think? We should be keeping our wits about us 'till we're safe, not soggin' them with gutrot..."

Khaira takes inventory of the group. "We might be able to get away with one more thrust into the goblin area, but we'd better be prepared to withdraw, especially if some kind of alert gets called up."
 

Lucas shook his head. "Thanks, but no thanks, Florian. The 'edge' lets me know I'm still alive. How are we for magic, anyway? I know Eshand's exhausted and I can only bargain with death once more - Quendros?" He indicated the direction of the room to the north east from which the voice had emanated. "Anybody know what that was all about? I'm no scholar, myself."
 

Investigating the two quiet doors on the north wall, you discover both lead to hallways. Khudaglun scouts for some distance, reporting that both join after twenty feet and proceed west for some distance to another door. Behind that door he can hear the sound of goblin voices conferencing. One voice is giving an eye-witness account of the recent battle, while others argue various courses of action.
 


"Quick, let's get to it. If there's one thing I hate, it's organised Golins"

Khudaglun readies his axes and prepares to open the door, quickly looking back to see if anyone is opposed to his intentions.
 


"Ready," says Florian, nodding gravely. He grips the hilt of his greatsword tighter and tenses, waiting for the time to strike. "Go ahead, Khudaglun."
 

FYI, here are the current injuries: Lucas 4/10hp, Khundaglun 5/13hp, Florian 9/12hp.

A circular shaft pierces the floor of this 40-foot-diameter domed chamber. Dim violet light shines out of the shaft, revealing the sickly white and gray vines coating the shafts walls. The light from the shaft is supplemented by four lit wall torches set equidistant around the periphery of the chamber. A crudely fashioned throne of stone sits against the curve of the northwestern wall. A large iron chest serves as the throne's footstool. A sapling grows in a wide stone pot next to the throne.

A hobgoblin sits in the throne, listening to an argument between a blue goblin and another hobgoblin. A goblin shaman stands next to the chief. Four goblins stand on the south side of the room, looking nervous. Two hobgoblins stand near the door you entered through, one right next to the shaft.
