FitzTheRuke
Legend
There was little sign of movement in the old chamber at the end of the long hallway. It was likely that the chief didn't go down here often since the chamber had been cleared of its collapsed ceiling. The hole in the wall that lead to the natural cavern was more interesting. It appeared to have been tunnelled through from the natural cavern, not the other way around (as had been seen in the back of the cell). Something had broken through, and had done so some time since the collapse had been cleared. Rubble from the wall still lay scattered in front of the hole.
When the group reunited in the main chamber to discuss their plans with the liberated prisoners, Tenibor and Bible agreed that it was likely that the two parts of the natural cavern that they observed would join at some point.
Quinn, who had been gathering information from the ex-prisoners was able to point out two more options to add to Eoghan's list: The orcs claimed that there was more of them, enslaved and digging to the south (past the forge, but the forge could be bypassed, they said, by going down a large central corridor).
Other prisoners pointed out, (and Quinn had earlier heard the sound of it from near Tamanar's cell), that there were two hill giants torturing a prisoner (or two) in a room that was through a smaller door that was to the south-west (and directly north of the forge).
