Tyrien, pursues the hornet that is still easiest to get a final shot at, sending an arrow down the tunnel after the large insectoid.

"Don't get away you stinger! Shar get 'em."

She tries to convince the lioness to pursue, but the large kitten wisely declines the honor in favor of staying at her side.

Without stopping to consider whether its a good idea, Throrg chases the hornet down the tunnel.

[sblock=OOC]He will only stop, if:
- it becomes too dark to see,
- he looses the trail
- he realises that he can't keep up
- he catches up. In which case he hits it.[/sblock]

Werit shakes the worst of the hornet gore off his dwarven waraxe then curtly crosses to Tyrien. Stopping short of the ranger, Werit eyes her wounds, saying, "How bad's it? Anyone else?" The dwarf looks around at the others.

Tyriens arrow hits its target just before it disappears into the darkness.

Throrg chases after the last honet, but while he is much faster than the bugs down in the tunnels, it becomes too dark to continue before he can catch up.

Tyrien sighs as the critter gets away. "Well, fat lot you did to stop them from getting away, Shar. But at least we made them run away."

The ranger girl is not really annoyed at Shar's decline to chase after them and she pats her companion on the head. The lioness sits on her haunches and begins to display typical feline apathy while she cleans her paws.

Tyrien looks to Werit, "Twas a lucky shot, and it does hurt. The stinger tip fell out so I don't think I got poisoned."

She will remain on the lookout for further threats around. While doing so, she will try to remember if there is anything she might have learned about this type of terrain or the holes in the ravine walls.

[sblock=OOC]She will accept healing if it's being offered. Take 10's on Skill Checks. Perception (21) and Knowledge Nature/Dungeoneering/Geography (15s). Not sure if there is actually anything to learn or not.[/sblock]___________________________________________

Werit crosses the gap between himself and Tyrien. "Stay still, girl." The priest touches Tyrien's wounds, knitting the flesh new with the blue-black magical light of Gorum. "There, better." Werit stands back, surveying his work. "Be bruised a bit, mebbe, but better in a day or two."

[sblock=Knowledge][sblock=Nature]From the number of hornets that have attacked you, this seems to be a small colony. There are bound to be many workers underground, but probably not many more soldiers than those you have allready encountered.[/sblock][sblock=Dungeoneering]The walls of the tunnels are smoother than normal sandstone, probably from some secretion left by the hornets to make their nests stable. you don't think there is much chance of these caves ever collapsing.[/sblock][/sblock]

 

[ghostcat]

Throrg may not be the brightest star in the sky but even he is not daft enough to go chasing after an enemy in the dark. Therefore, he reluctantly turns back and goes to join the others. "Too dark. Bug gone." he says.

Tyrien e'Drianne, Half-elf Female Ranger

Tyrien fidgets impatiently while the she suffers the cleric's attentions, but then speaks nicely afterward, "Shar, he does good work, neh. Thanks o' stout one."

The ranger frowns at Thorg, "Alright big guy, don't worry. Your lunch ain't getting away. We will be back for them later."

She follows the tracks to where the lone boot prints split off and peers down the tunnel.

Assuming she doesn't notice anything, Tyrien addresses the others sharing what she knows about the ravine's structure and the hornet colony. Then she continues, "Two choices. One, we head into this hole and finish off the hornets and find why one horse rustler went down there. Or two, we continue on after the rest of the caravan. What will it be?"

[sblock=OOC]Stealth Take 10s checking out the hole. Tyrien 24, Shar 21. Then 10 of Perception for 21.[/sblock]___________________________________________
