The Drow War Book One - Chillhame

[Evil Ujio]

The spirit leaps forward with in a violent charge before fading into mist passing through Enthalus leaving him with stinging chill through his body! Leaving the party alone once more… getting a look around at the lip of the deep crevice in the earth, there is a lift mechanism that at the moment seems to have been used to go deeper into the mines.

The party can hear sounds behind them in rough common, “What was that crash! Check it out!”

Another voice replies, “No, that blasted ghost may be abouts!”

The sounds are faint, and seem some ways off from behind them in the darkness.

Laurel says quietly, "I guess this mine is haunted." She looks at the way down, intending to go down before anyone else shows up.

Laurel or any party member will have to activate the lift to get it to come up or just climb down, depends on the party's decision.

"At least the ghost is slightly more welcoming to us than to the hobgoblins currently in residence," Saxon notes, shaken by the spirit's reaction to Enthalus' approach, "Let's get that machine working so we don't have to share unpleasantries with whoever's investigating the ruckus we caused."

Mzarem regained his composure somewhat with the departure of the ghost, and now seemed to be paying attention to the approaching guard(s).

Does it look easy or difficult to climb down. And how far down does it look like the lift goes? And how is the lift raised, manual winch and pulley?

 

[Evil Ujio]

Lever that is pulled, you guess that is currently in the "down" position... the climb could be easy with the right tools, but it is more then 40 feet down at least. The lever you surmise uses a system of pulleys and weights to lift and lower the actual lift...

Enthalus shivers, and hisses "That chilled me to my soul! Let's see if the lift works before company arrives." He then mutters "If they are hobgoblins I wonder why they are speaking common among themselves instead of goblin."

 

[Endur]

"Its too far down to climb. We need to use the lift if we're going down."

Dolan watches Enthalus.

“I have a rope, the climb should not be hard, but I doubt we can make it down until the guards arrive here, so we better prepare for them.”
