Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

OCC - Scott, do you feel there is a need for a map? I assume we are still on the same floor as before. If we've cleared this floor, have we found any way to descend further?

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Sorry guys, work has been kicking my ass this week. I should be back on track Monday. You did decend to the lowest level of the grotto. There are only a couple of mostly empty storerooms at the 'boxcar' service exit on this level. You have also cleared the level directly above which was a larger collection of storerooms. Assuming you don't wish to leave now your only choice is to go up.

The party climbs the stairs back up to the storage level and then continues on up to the first level of private rooms. They are all empty now and in various states of disarray. The level above that is wider and has private rooms on the front and kitchens to the back. In the kitchen areas you can locate more knives and even a few meat cleavers if you choose. Making your way on up to the next level you find another layer of private rooms and something more...

The Hallway

There is a long curving hallway. Far down it there is a bright flash of light followed deep whoomp sound and a warm breeze blows past smelling slightly sulfurus. What ever it was is far enough down the hallway to be unseen around the curve.

OOC: Actions?

Rook

"We're here to look around, right? I'd rather stay in the shadows, but fate doesn't seem to be pushing us in that direction - let's head into the light!"

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Listen checks please.

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

listen check (1d20+7=9)

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Rook

Rook listens (1d20+8=28) carefully down the hall, shushing his companions as he does so.

"I think I hear something!"

 

[Scotley]

The Hallway

The sounds of battle come clearly to Rook. He hears an old yet still powerful voice shouting battle cries in dwarvish. Radoon finds that Rook's exclaimation about hearing something drowns out his own hearing.

OOC: Actions?

 

[mleibrock]

Radoon

Radoon will make ready two of the daggers he found on the floor.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Rook

Rook will report what he hears, and also ready his dagger in his primary hand, and a found dagger for throwing in his off hand.

OOC: Sorry, I should have posted reporting what I heard earlier - I'm slipping!
