[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 6801390, member: 11146"] With Kago out front and Shuushar close behind, the party fled the outpost single-file via the western passageway. Kamael focused on remembering the twists and turns the group took. Still, the going was rough. While the passageway stayed mostly level where water had leached through rock to form a natural tunnel that intermittently narrowed in places, close-set rock walls required everyone to occasionally squeeze between tight places. The sandstone floor of the drow outpost quickly gave way to stratified limestone that broke off in flakes here and elsewhere in huge slabs that petered on falling. Everywhere, a wall of darkness pressed against the bright light of multiple spells, which had to continuously be re-cast every hour or so lest the group be plunged into utter black. Jagged shards of broken limestone were hard on the feet, too, and no one had shoes. After perhaps eight long hours of a punishing pace, everyone had tripped at least once. Everyone had cuts and scraps. Everyone had fresh bruises. And, while everyone had water, no one had food...save for Raza, who'd secreted away a pound of salted fish. Kago, who'd take point all day long, felt the air change, grow colder. Up ahead, his orc eyes detected an opening. An eerie cavern littered with countless bones loomed ahead where the passageway yielded to an open space with a high ceiling. All was natural rock. [ooc]Current (non-default?) single-file marching order, using a fast pace: Kago << Shuushar << Solace << Turvey << Kamael << Raza << Jimjar << Stool << Brinn. [/ooc] [/QUOTE]
