[QUOTE="GlassEye, post: 6762179, member: 40413"] After all healing is completed and Aelspeth finishes her ritual, the invisible wickerman pushes against the makeshift door. It is heavier than expected but not so much that the magical being cannot push it, hinged as it is at the top, upwards. Autumn barely has time to draw breath for a warning and step out of the way before the door, not even fully opened yet, slams shut and shatters into splinters as a fire hardened stump swings down from the room beyond and crashes through it. The stump wedges in the doorway blocking the half of it and the pieces of the door fall away. This leaves the other half of the doorway open to reveal, at quick glance, a firelit room with half a dozen or so kobolds scurrying about for weapons (room 2, level 3). A slightly longer examination would reveal that there is a drop of nearly 30 feet just outside the door to the stairwell and that the nets or ladders the kobolds used to travel between the room and the stairwell have been cut away or removed. The floor where the kobolds are is a ten foot leap out from the doorway; a painful fall should one miss the landing. From your location there doesn't seem to be an upper room to this level. [sblock=OOC][url=https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1mgBBRPggO3a4oGJc-4cuPtvBC28PpE1m5zNAM_mkVIU/edit?usp=sharing]Combat map[/url] Note that the stairwell door is also 10 ft higher than the level where the kobolds are. So, to reach that level you would have to go out 10 ft and also down 10 ft. The first large square just outside the door is the 30 ft drop into the lower room.

I'll go with your less conservative estimate of an hour passed. And, I apologize, but it will be late tonight before I can get a current battle map posted. With the wedged log taking up half the doorway only one person/creature will be able to enter/exit the stairwell at a time.
