Alexander's words sink in. The floor does look dusty and unused, as if no one has come here in months, if not years. You begin to doubt that the kobolds now in charge of this hill know of the existence of these crypts.

"Well, should we continue?" Kel queries the rest of the group once everyone is well enough to proceed "It seems as though we are safe from kobold attack down here but other fell things reside in the darkness"
During their convalesence Kel spoke to Alexander about the Huntress "The God I worship is not the same as yours, although perhaps she just wears many masks?" he speculates "Not all elves emerse themselves in words and platitudes, some of us still revere the old ways and the Huntress is an ancient God, though truth be told not many of our kind still worship her"

After a good rest, the party carries on into the room with the large, stone staircase and the mummified kobold corpses. (Everyone regains their hps and spells). The burnt and hacked spider corpses still litter the floor. Right when Rix, who was taking the lead, steps into the room, a familiar pair of lips appears.
"Invaders! Robbers! The children of the dragon will slay you all!" It again repeats its hesterical message in the same order as before.
It seems not to recognize you.

In draconic you hear the lips once more say, "Welcome child of the dragon. Pay homage to Krystoryniaxast, the First of the Hill Delvers, but do not tarry. The dead deserve their rest."
It seems not to react to you in any other way.

Alexander answers he is disposed to carry on: "Then better take the lead, I'm not enthusiastic about being peppered with kobold bolts"
Alexander examines close up the blood-filled carvings on the blade strapped to his wrist... "I want to get done with this and move against the previous owner of this" He is silent for a pair of seconds... "I can but hope that this strange magicks have their origin in the invaders... as well as controlling bodies who should be resting, they might be the source of this control"
Will we need to make any more of this errands before earning enough trust?... as soon as this finishes, I'll propose scouting of enemy-taken territory

Rix takes the lead as the party moves up the stairs from the room with the dead spiders. The party travels for a short time, finally reaching the web covered ceiling. Silas uses a new torch to burn them away before the party reaches the last steps, which are just below the ceiling. A close inspection reveals a hidden passageway in the ceiling.
The kobold checks for traps, then opens the passage. The ceiling slides to the side, but several boxes that were stacked on top of them fall through the opening, almost crushing the nimble Rix. The rest of the party also avoids being hit by the tumbling boxes. You watch in surprise as these crates fall into the darkness below, and announce their stop at the bottom with the loud splinterings of wood.
The sounds echo through the halls, but no one comes to investigate. After a few tense moments, the party moves through the opening, finding themselves in a small storage room. It's a 15 foot by 15 foot room. A wooden door is to the east, which Rix searches for traps. He finds none.

After Rix checked for traps, Alexander nears the door and sticks his ear to its surface, on intent of catching anything from the other side.

As you listen, you hear another door open in the distance and the shuffling of five or so creatures can be heard. They do not come closer to your door, however, nor do they speak. After a moment you can hear someone humming a strange tune, as if they were lost in thought.

Rix rummages quietly through the crates. They hold equipment, and Rix is lucky enough to find the following:
3x Torches
1x Mirror
100x crossbow bolts
4x light crossbows
25x small traveler outfits
2x Rope (50 ft)
1x Grapple
And a small bag of silver coins (estimating 500 silver)
