Gross Fell: The dragon's lair

Thoart: You fly around in hawk shape for several miles in each direction. Gross Fell is a village whose main road runs north-south. There are some small roads that branch off the main road about twenty miles north and south - presumably to other smaller hamlets. The surrounding countryside is hilly with plains interspersed with woods.

You see nothing that could be even remotely construed as a crypt.

After a few drinks, Davik heads upstairs ( I assume the rooms are upstairs?), goes to sleep and wakes up early to pray. After praying, he comes back down to the common room in hopes of running into one of the dwarves he met yesterday.
 

Thoart forages through the outskirts of town for some berries to cast goodberrie on and puts the berries in a pouch. He then goes to the inn and gets a room.
 

You all gather in the common room of the inn. The innkeep serves you each a nice hearty breakfast of lamb sausages with red wine sauce, hot bread and butter, and wheat porridge.

Soon after you finish, Jolan walks in. He greets you with a nod and a smile.

"Ah! I am glad to see you all here."

"Aye, all of you.", he grins, nodding at Davik. "Follow me, we have a hike ahead of us."

Jolan leads you north along the main road leading out of the village. He soon moves off the main trail and follows a small game trail. It is a bright, sunny spring day, with only a few white clouds in the blue sky. Butterflies flutter among the bushes and trees as you pass, and you see sheep, cattle, and the occasional horse grazing on a hill.

You follow him about and around hills for a few hours, until he comes to a stop, about ten miles into your travels. You are at the base of a nondescript hill. It is grassy, with the occasional copse of trees, just like every other hill. Jolan begins tapping brushes and trees with a stick. He moves near a tree, and suddenly, he is gone!

As you are wondering what has just happened, Jolan reappears.

"I've found it", he says. He gestures for you to follow.

You follow Jolan into the trees, and suddenly, you find yourself in the entrace of a 10 foot wide tunnel, with masonry walls, and a 12 foot arched ceiling. You are facing north as you stand at the entrance, looking inside.

Lorenz, you can barely make out a tunnel leading northeast, illuminated only from the light outside. It quickly fades to pitch black.

Dwarves: With your darkvision, you are able to see a tunnel curving and leading northeast. The tunnel goes about 40 feet before it curves too far east to see any further.

Jolan stands behind you, his face serious- a stark contrast to the whistling good cheer of before.

"This is it. I sincerely wish you the best of luck. To get back to Gross Fell, you only need head westwards until you hit the main road. Following that road south will take you back."

Jolan nods at you one last time, and begins heading back the way he came.

Actions?

Note: I need a marching order. I know its hard to coordinate over boards, so I will assume as default: Lorenz, Takklin, Davik, Thoart.
I also need to know what is in each of your character's hands. Unless you tell me otherwise, I will assume you are each holding your main melee weapon in one hand, and leaving the other hand empty.
To keep the game moving, I may advance even if not everyone has posted :)
Finally, its pitch black for those of you without darkvision. If you use a light source, specify what it is and how you are holding it
 

Any of you have a torch you could give Lorenz? Doesn't make much sense to move on without one if the lead man can't see.

OoC: Knowthetoe, are you subscribed to the ooc thread? You are clearly online and reading this one, but you aren't answering my questions in the ooc thread about your spell selection... Pleas subscribe to both as I'd like to keep this thread mostly in character :)
 

Thoart picks up a stone that fits nicely into his fist, then makes sure he can wrap his fist around it. Once he finds the right sized stone, he casts light upon it and hands it to Lorenz.
 

OK then, let's get moving

Does it look like we're in the crypt yet? If so, Davik will be holding his weapon in one hand and holy symbol in the other.
