He threw again, and this time it caught – he began to climb. Igmut descended to the chasm floor and stood by waiting for his turn to climb up to the ledge.Almost immediately, a grimlock appeared in sight on the opposite side of the chasm. The creature produced a dagger and moved to saw at the grappling hook’s rope. We all fired our bows at the figure, and although only Niccoli’s shot made contact, the creature pulled back.By unspoken consent, most of the group began to advance. Flynne continued to climb his rope, whilst Endo moved out gingerly along the rope bridge. As he closed, a cry of rage came from the other side; the creatures were clearly enraged by Endo’s drow-like image. Javelins shot out form the darkness at him, as he cast a spell then fired a wand at the enemies which he could see from his position. I began a chant of encouragement, lending a touch of confidence to Niccoli, who began to gingerly edge out onto the rope bridge. The ropes sagged alarmingly – clearly it would not be safe for more than two people to go onto the ropes at the same time. Beneath us, there was a crashing noise followed by a torrent of swearing in elvish as Flynne fell off his rope. Igmut stepped up to take his place and began climbing hand over hand up the rope. Flynne backed up and began to fire arrows overhead; miraculously we heard a shout of pain from beyond the lip of the unseen tunnel. Opposite us, one grimlock could be seen briefly, as he came into my view to saw at the grapple. The rope was severed, and Ig fell hard to the floor below. Two javelins sailed out, and one of them struck Endo. He responded by casting a spell, pointing at the unseen enemies. A terrifying spectre shot from his outstretched finger towards the ledge and he was rewarded with screaming. Whatever it was he had done was sufficient to send one of the grimlocks fleeing loudly down the corridor; equally as much a blessing as a potential curse if it alerted any more enemies.Endo then began to unleash blasts of dark energy from his wand as Niccoli stepped off the other end of the rope bridge, bastard sword in hand.</blockquote>
