"I nearly always listen, though I did get a lot of water in my ears as a youngster. I just wish some of the rest of you would listen half as hard," says Keldar. "Tarag, I know you're well protected with mail and shield, but we need you on your feet to heal us, Chennet' forbid - and remember, the two most dangerous fire elementals are even higher up. I think perhaps I should go first this time. If we are pinned at the top of the stairs, I can duck and weave and tumble my way past to let the rest of you out. Not that I have tried to dodge living flames and rock before...." Keldar begins to look doubtful. "Or... you don't suppose we could draw these incurious elementals to the head of the stairs, and fill them full of arrows and bolts? No, I suppose the stairway is too tightly curved, and we're just not that organised."
