(OOC: You'll have to excuse me Manzanita, I volunteered Raven to take the chest to the room with the paintings since she is the most capable of doing so without getting into trouble.)

OoC - Time of day is late evening.

Raven

"It is late. Let's try to find these doors. If we can, they let's send this fiend back to the temple of Pelor, and spend the night here. We can investigate what's behind the doors in the morning."

Raven will search for secret doors where indicated.

Raven finds the door on the landing of the stairway with little trouble now that she knows where to look. The wall slides inward revealing a 10 x 20 passageway leading east that abruptly ends at another wall.

(OOC: We've been dealing with the Church of St. Cuthbert, right?)

Orpheus looks to Zeric for his opinion of Raven's plans, more than confident in her ability to lead them to the Malachite Fortress.
"I don't think it would be so wise to spend our nights in this place. We have rested enough as it is, let's just keep going..."

Manzanita · Feb 8, 2005

Raven

A smile breaks out on her face as the door opens. Wordlessly, she continues down the hallway and listens at the end. Then begins her search for secret door number two.

"Let's get this one open and then decide. It is important to get our rest. We need to be in top form for the dangers that come."

"Raven speaks truth. Besides, we can't take this one on his word that he will go to the church. It would be wiser to drop him off, catch some sleep and come back. I mean, if this demon-dwarf knows we're coming, a frontal assult isn't going to work anyway. We might as well confuse the bastard while we're at it." Alinis says with a grin.

Majin · Feb 8, 2005

Again without much trouble Raven spots the tell-tale signs of a secret door in the eastern wall of the hallway.

Manzanita · Feb 8, 2005

Raven

"OK. Is everyone at full strength? If so, perhaps we should go ahead & enter the room. On the other hand, we'd probably lose our element of surprise. I guess my opinion would be to stop now for the night. Send the sneak off to the temple, and tackle this one in the morning."

"I have most of my spells still and none of us are badly injured, I say we press on. Besides this doesn't look like a fortress so who knows how much further it is and time is running out for the children." Althron states folding his arms across his chest.
