They got literally within spitting distance of their objective--Thrull and the scions on the bottom level--and then decided to back off and go rest. I have no idea what players are thinking when they leave piles and piles of bodies in the central chambers of a dungeon, fail clear to clear out the extremities branching into them, and then just decide to leave for eight hours and expect everything to be as it was when they left. Pretty much all that's left are Thrull and his lackeys (Rulgar the ranger and a handful of orc warriors), Jurrg the adept, the ambush drakes, Naazlog and his entourage (a dozen orc warriors), and the two ambush drakes.I'm trying to figure out how they respond to what they find when someone goes to take a leak or something. The heroes ran upstairs to rest in the barbican. Should the orcs try to barricade themselves down below (knowing their secret doors have been discovered)? Should they try to comb the fortress for the intruders (which almost certainly means the PC's will be found)? Should they go ahead and kill the scions? So many choices, all bad.</blockquote>
