Small Cave

Relsyn:
The bedding has stale leaves and grass in them, perhaps last used a year ago or the fall before.
In fact, everything in here is a bit dust covered and has some crumbling share pebles on it.
With little effort, perhaps some new leaves could make these comfortable. Oh blessed Salix, it rained and snowed! there is nothing dry around. Could there be spiders in there?!

Inwe:
Inwe finds nothing else along the walls, which are mostly naturally formed, but expanded to be passable. Some lower holes extend further, but could in no way be passable.
Passing Relsyn, she too determines the bedding has not been used for over a year. The fabric, however, is in good repair and could be reused.
At the pool, the water is fresh and tastes quite good. She fills her water bottles there.
She passes the bags on the north side, peeking inside as she does so. Three of these contain sheeps wool in raw form, but already washed and combed. Two smaller bags contain chestnuts and almonds. The last two bags contain average quality linen fabric of various dull earth colors.
After peeking inside she watches what Airith is doing with the chest.

Airith:
Having knelt by the chest, he gives a thourough once-over for traps and devices. There is a lock set in the front of the chest, which looks totally common and un-trapped. Detecting magic reveals nothing about the chest or the room, other than the items on the fingers or belts of the others. The lock is so common that Airiths first attempt to open the lock succeeds easily.
With Inwe looking over his shoulder and Relsyn a few steps away watching Airith, he opens the lid of the chest. Inside they find some black cloaks and pants on the top. Beneath are some small daggers [common] and a knife.
In a pouch at the bottom, there are 23 Crowns, 6 Dukes, and 8 Pennies.
 

Airith

Airith takes some time to count the coins. After a couple seconds or so he divides the coins as evenly as possible. 5 crowns and 2 pennies for everyone. Airith then gives an extra crown to everyone and takes the 6 dukes for himself.
[R, I, W each get 6 gold 2 copper, A takes 5 gold, 6 silver, 2 copper]
"Anyone else find anything interesting?"
After looking things over, "I wouldn't mind one of these cloaks and the knife." Airith looks at the quality of the knife and throws a cloak over his shoulder. "Should we take the rest of this stuff to the main cave?"
 

Relsyn puts the coins in his belt pouch, but withholds three gold to give to Sheldon, Zane & Earle.

"I think we should," He says.

Fearing spiders, he steps clear of the bedding but grabs one of the bags and begins to tote it into the main part of the cave.
 

Inwe

"I agree." After accepting and stowing her coins, Inwe picks up the couple bags of nuts and one of the sacks of linen and makes her way back out of the inner cave. "Found some food, water, and goods."
 

Inwe[sblock]Stepping over the threshold of the door, Inwe notices that the bar that was pushed down in the hole activates a catch which inserts into the bottom of the door and draws it tightly closed. [/sblock]

The others watch as Wrinkle hauls three of the wool bags up behind Relsyn and Inwe. Airith appears a second later with a bag of wool and a large black wool cloak draped over his shoulder and dragging on the ground.

* Earle asks "What did ya find?" as he saunters over from his seat on the ground by the fire. He glances into the bags and cracks open a few nuts and eats them. "ummm, good still."
"Hey, thanks!" he merrily says as he pockets the coin Relsyn tossed at him.

* Zane remains sitting by the fire, looking at the dirty bags you just hauled up like they were garbage. He does catch a few of the almonds Earle tosses him, then crushes and eats them. He just smiles and nods as Relsyn places the coin in his hand and says "found a few of these in there too."

* Sheldon, too, looks up. "Taint yers, but ifn it has to come, it'll fit somewhere." He does take the coin, however, without any apparent qualms.

Wrinkle takes one bag of wool and flattens it out to make a large round chair. Sitting down in it, he snuggles down a bit, wiggles out a few wool lumps as he stretches out, and looks rather pleased with himself. He asks "ssteww ready?" as he picks out his mess kit from his sack and struts over to the fire.
 

Airith

Airith drops the bag by the others and then heads over to his belongings. He folds the cloak in half and sets it on his bed-roll. He lays back and looks at the knife he found in the chest.
I wonder who left this stuff here?
He puts the knife back in his pocket and heads over to the nuts and grabs a few. "Did anyone grab those daggers in the chest?" Relsyn, Inwe and Wrinkle all nod no. Airith heads back into the cave and comes out with a few small daggers. "Anyone interested in these?"

[Are they actually small daggers or just normal daggers?]
 

After eating dinner, Sheldon goes out and checks on the wagon before bed.
As has been usual in the last few nights, Zane moves out of the cave for the first watch tonight while Sheldon goes down a bit earlier that everyone else.

Wrinkle, comfortable on his pillow, smokes his pipe and watches the fire burn a bit lower. He pulls out his musical instrument and plays a quiet lilting tune, ending with a series of longing or sorrowful melodies.

[ready to sleep?]
 

Airith

Airith lets out a big yawn and stretches his arms. He calls Smoke in and lets him eat some of the scraps from dinner and a bit of water. Airith then gives Smoke a good pet and rub and then sends him back to gaurd the entrance of the cave. Airith then goes about checking to see if his coat and other stuff are dry yet and turns over a few of the items. He then lays down on his bed-roll head on his pack and pulls up his blanket and new black cloak.
 

Inwe

Inwe enjoys her share of stew and some nuts, also giving some to Cildar. She spreads out what of her gear is still damp so it will dry be morning, puts the rest including her newly acquired linen, against the wall of the cave. Then sits nearby, Cildar by her side, enjoying the lingering aroma of her delicious stew and staring into the glowing fire as she drifts into her trance.
