Rylnethaz stood at the edge and dropped a pebble in the chasm. There was no telltale sound that the pebble had reached the bottom. “Well, it is not like we would be careless to begin with but let’s make sure that we cross the bridge in all safety,” said Rylnethaz and everyone nodded in agreement.They had barely reached the middle of the bridge when an otherworldly roar was heard, followed by stomping noise.

We might make you a scholar after all!“The kobolds were already running for the far side of the bridge and so did the two adventurers.
