You leave the chamber and your fallen comrade and head to the north. Ahead of you Korb sees another opening and a little flying creature. This is a Mephit, could be another one or the same one that escaped earlier. As before, the flying thing shrieks in terror and fly away before you have a chance to do anything. He vanishes in the darkness to the north.
You arrive to the chamber where the creature was a moment ago. This small cave’s worked stone walls show clear signs of iron ore in great quantities. The floor is uneven and covered with scree.
To the north the passage continues and low chants can be heard.

At the Earth temple
Solitaire spots from her cage another flying Mephit storming to the chamber, another one comes from another passage to the south. The Trog that stands on the altar calls out to his fellows, clearly something is happening as they begin to lower their hoods and prepare their weapons for a fight. The priest himself cleans the blade that a moments before butchered the ranger as he turns his look to YOU.
OOC – I updated the treasure post in the RG.
