Seraphina bows slightly to Tamalruk.

"I thank you for your assistance." She says. "I look forward to doing business with you again in the future, when we are done dealing with the goblins."

She then turns to the rest of the group.

"Well, let's not waste any more of Tamalruk's time. We have quite a job ahead of us, and I don't want us to take longer than we have to."
 

Tamalruk bows his head in response to Seraphina. "I too look forwardssss to our next meeting. You ssshow ressspect for Hisss waysss, and do not judge me like the humansss of the town."

You all head back out of the mine, accompanied by Tamalruk as far as the copper doors. "Hisss blessssing goesss with you." The lizard-man priest calls after the group.

You make your way back to the platform, and climb back out into the sunlit woods. It's a relief to be above ground again, out of the damp, cool air of the mine's tunnels. Looking up at the sky, you'd guess you've been underground for close to three hours, the sun now almost at it's noon height.
 



"Well," Seraphina says, looking around, "Tamalruk said that the goblins were at the top, or somewhere around there, and that the climb is 'treacherous'. I somewhat doubt our ability to track something over the side of a mountain or hill or whatever if there's a chance we'll fall to our deaths."

"Let's just head up to the top, then see what we can find."
 

Aiden quips after being insulted, but stays silent. Later on, he mumbles, "I perfer Pelor's name not being taken in vain, even with sarcasm." He sighs, "I understand we have religious, and even racial differences Gholog, but that hasn't put up a barrier for me and I hope that doesn't put one up for you."

After walking a little while out, "Not to sound cowardly, or anything, but since we've heard the climb is treacherous, maybe we can look for a back route? There might not be one but there must be some other way to go up."
 


Gholog

"My comments about the scrolls weren't intended as a slight, but as homage. No sarcasm was intended," Gholog says. "Our racial differences aren't so great. You could be a relative, as far as I know.

"I only look a savage beast, but oddly my lineage from my orc forebearers is better known to me." Gholog grins toothily.
 

OOC: I've not got any definite course of action yet. What are you all going to do next? Try to climb the mountain? Search the mountainside? Head back underground?

If you're feeling at a loss about what to do and where to go, try rereading all of the encounter with Tamalruk. There are a few clues in there.
