"Lower... the pig? Gah..." sighs Kragen, still scanning the darkness for unseen foes.

The spy laughs at the suggestion, then calls down from his ascent, "No, Kragen, just the digging gear. I'm pretty sure I don't have the strength to hoist an entire pony." Then he resumes the climb.
 

Fear moments pass through Kaen's heart as he hears the pully squicks under his weight as he climbs the rope, It's takes some time, but you reach.
As you climb up the ledge you spot a death scene.
Stonebless mouth is filled with blood, Gortok's throat is open wide, his mouth open in a screming position, fear in his eyes, he is dead.
As you can see, he tried to escape.

you can do whatever you want here, but I assume you starts to lower the equipment.

You lower the digging and mining equipment down the rope, until they reach the water, Kalzaam grabs a pick and starts to work, There is also 2 other shovels and another Pick.
Thimur stands behind and give safty instructions and tries to find good spots to dig.

"Uh ... good boy," Kaen stutters to the wolf at the sight of Gortok's final fate. He tries to smile reassuringly as he gets the equipment and lowers it. Once he's done, he shinnies back down.

"Looks like Gortok didn't believe you, Rogno. Your companion seems to have had to deal with an escape attempt. We won't be questioning The Mighty Gortok any more."

Kaen grabs himself the other pick and sets to work trying to help the party dig to the other side.
 


NOOOOOOO... hopefully give it a few days as EN World has been down... :P

Kragen grabs a pick and follows suit, but keeping his crossbow within easy reach.
 

OOC: OK, I'll continue for now ...

As Kragen, Kalzaam and Kaen are working to clear the stones and rocks.
Alisanos and Rogno keep watching and Thimur gives instructions.
You manage to clear a narrow path, you we'll need to crawl on four to pass and watch your head. behind it there is total darkness.
As you pass through the gap , you stand in a corridor. you can hear faint screams down the corridor, It's those ghostly screams again, screaming "Help, run for your lives".
the cave to the left is blocked, but you guess that few pushes will do the trick.

Then you notice it .... There is movement in the dark and 2 figures comes forward.
Fear grasp your hearts and it's difficult to breath , you spot the remines of 2 dwarves, now they are skeletons, they hold 2 picks and rusted mine helmets on their heads, they coming your way from the cave down the corridor. behind them you can spot another block in the corridor.
suddenly your hear faint knocks from the rocks on the left, you hear someone shouting in dwarven. "Help, let me out of here!"

Check out the map in the previous posts.
OOC: Argent Silvermage ...hope you are here. he is a new dwarf.
 

Durin

Oh dear. I do hope they reach me soon. Durin thinks as he hears the sound of picks cracking stone. "Please! I must get out. There is so much I haven't done yet. And I'm down to my last candied mushroom!" He pounds on the rocks and then starts moving some out of the way where they seem to be working.
 

Kaen

Kaen groans. "Lovely. Now they're not only slaying our kin, they're raising them to do their bidding."

Hearing the voice cry for help, Kaen considers his options. "If you strongarms can cover me, I'll see if I can excavate us some help."

OOC: Assuming the fighter-types engage the skeletons, Kaen will try to dig out the trapped dwarf. If they don't, Kaen engages with his dagger (since his mace got all rusted up)
