"Yes, there is someone or something in those ruins.. Not natural.. LEt's be cautious.. says the tureni druid.
He calms Highflyer and lets his compatriot and the elf take the flank whilst he stays in the centre.
To William, he says: "Do not run too far away from me my friend.. I have asked Dame Nature to provide me with some of Her Strength this morning. If we are attacked, I just need to touch your shoulder to make you much stronger.. You'll probably make better use of it than me."
That said, and once the scouts have progressed, he walks towards the ruins, staring at them constantly.
OoC: spot at +9. if William happy about it, would cast Bull Strength on him.

"Sure, try whatever, just don't get too far apart, we don't want anyone getting jumped while far from help." Alaric says as he follows the dwarf, his smaller crossbow in hand. He takes a moment first to wrap himself in invisible armor once again, with a short elven chant of "Seresthae Nif Miren."

Corath shrugs slightly as the others begin their approach to the building. She deploys her rapier and stays close to Alaric. Her eyes restlessly scan the surroundings.

Aleera nods at Valen's suggestion and the two scouts begin stealthily skirting the perimeter of the odd building while the others approach directly.
Muzdum leads the way, Aohdan close behind, with Alaric taking a moment to cast his spell and Johen and William toward the back, Johen enhancing the paladin's strength with a spell of his own. Finally, Corath brings up the rear, warily scanning the plateau.
Most of the buildings on the plateau are simple stone huts, having the appearance of temporary residences for mine workers. Ten years of harsh weather have worn away the surfaces of these buildings, leaving little to distinguish them from eachother.
The out of place building is made of a black, shiny stone and is roughly three stories tall and thirty feet on a side. There doesn't appear to be any entrances or windows of any sort. The type of stone is unsettlingly familar to the dwarf, shadowstone, a type of stone only found in dwarven lands. The Shadowstone Road seperates the hill dwarves from the mountain dwarves and is said to take the souls of any who die there. Quarrying the stone is against the most sacred of dwarven laws. And yet, here is this structure.
Valen and Aleera, closest to the structure, note an uncomfortable chill in the air around the building and notice what appear to be inscriptions etched into its surface about halfway up and encircling the entire building. Valen isn't able to decipher what language it is written in.
The tracks Valen noticed earlier seem to circle the structure and then lead away, toward the keep.
OOC: Any character fluent in Celestial will be able to read the inscription. Otherwise, Decipher Script checks for those trained in that skill.
