[QUOTE="Fangor the Fierce, post: 1662771, member: 17100"] OOC - Need marching order. From what I could tell, it was Kevin first, with Darius by him. Nyela said she follows, so I am putting her next, with Nedander. Gray Sparrow last. If you want to change this, let me know. Otherwise I will use this order unless you specifically tell me to change it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peering into the entrance, Gray Sparrows eyes adjust quickly. She sees that the path is wide enough for two people to walk side by side, and appears to end about 30 feet down the tunnel. As Nedander lights his lantern, the flame flickers for a few seconds, before gathering strength. The hallway lights up and the lights dance off of the walls. With Kevin heading in first, he sees the end of the tunnel, and sees that there is also a door to the left, and that the tunnel veers off to the right as well. Darius keeps his sword at the ready, waiting for a chance to use it. Nedander follows the two fighters types, letting them make their way into the cave. His lantern is held at a height so that all can see in front. The movements of the two in front of him make shadows dance around as well. The walls are mainly of rock, and some patches of dirt. The floor is dirt as well, but not as loose as would be expected. Nyela, with eyes wide and darting around to every nook and cranny, finds that this indeed is a sight to behold. The shadows sometimes change into menacing formations, but then again, they are just shadows. As she nears the end of the tunnel, she spies the door to the left. Darius and Kevin see that the door is wooden, and opens inward, as the hinges are not present on this side. The door also looks old and rotted, for the lower corner is rotted away and is large enough for a small creature to fit through with some persistence. Peering to the right, where the tunnel veers off, you can make out that it continues for another 20 or so feet before turning to the left. Nyela: [spoiler] As you peer around cautiously, your astute ears pick up something definately different. You see that the tunnel wall directly facing the entrance has a set of odd looking holes facing the group. While staring at them, you can make out a faint sound. Almost as if a scuttering sound.
