Alinis shakes her head in negation at Raven's comment. "I doubt seriously that they fear us. In my homeland, if an invader managed to kill a scouting group, we would watch and wait, gauging their weaknesses before leading them into an arrow-filled trap. This is their territory. They are simply waiting for a good moment. Be on your guard,"

Orpheus goes about his morning with a lighter gait since receiving a good night's rest and healing from the clerics at the church. He ignores the paranoid comments of his...companions, and explores the tunnels with little concern.
Zeric walked through the tunnels with his morningstar clutched tightly in his hands. The absence of sounds bothered him more than if the skulks would have tried to ambush them in the stairwell leading down, but he tried his best to keep his nerves from playing tricks on him.
~If I give into phantom noises, I will never be able to focus on the real ones...~
When Raven voiced her thoughts on the weakness of the creatures, Zeric simply nodded once, but kept his personal thoughts silent on the matter. As long as they were punished for what they had done to the children, Zeric did not care if they were weak or strong.
~In the end, the scales will be balanced...~
As they traced the various tunnel paths, Zeric noted the unmarked room, and as the group paused for a moment, Zeric spoke to them all for the first time.
"I think we should examine the unmarked room, if the gnomes kept it hidden there must have been a good reason for it."

"Fair enough," Orpheus says with a noncommittal shrug.
ooc:
i guess Alinis and Raven can take point. Between the two of them, they can probably spy out any traps, secret doors, ambushes etc. And the ladies can probly handly themselves
.
Zeric should probably take the rear. That'll keep the weaker party members in the middle.

Raven
Raven eyes the opening in the ceiling. "No light, just yet, please. These skulks can't seem to see in the dark, which would give me an advantage over them. I will go first. Just be ready to back me up." Raven smiles around at the group and finishes with a wink at Zeric.
Raven will then start climbing the ladder, one hand holding her morningstar. As usual, she prefers either the front or the back.
