The globes…..” grumbles the skeletal warrior.At the bottom of another small hole are two goblins.  Both are dead with no clear cause.Half way across the large room Ayur hears something in a deep hole.  Zig looks over and sees two slow moving Emerald Claw soldiers feeling and bumping into the walls below.  They are both walking counter clock-wise.  “What is their problem?” Calls out Zig across the hole to Kyr and Feldrix.Ayur answers first.  “Zombies.”  And with that the two look up with their pale pitted faces.“I got this!” calls out Zig and he pulls out a rope.   “What is Zigland doing?!?” calls out Tyson as he leaves the hole he was looking into.  He arrives as Zig shimmies down the rope on the opposite side from the zombies.“I bet Zig wins.” Announces Kyr.“Of course my student will win.”  Says Feldrix.“You would bet on the outcome?!?” says Ayur with a dumbfounded look.Zig attacks and misses.   Soon the battle becomes a clock-wise circle of swing, miss, move away, zombies stumble after.  “Your student is being taught a lesson of never underestimate anything.” Adds the Inquisitive with a hint of a smile.“May I have the odds?” asks a voice from a hole nearby.Everyone except for Zig  (still circling below) turns and watches as a Gauth floats up from the opening.Giving the aberration no chance to explain itself or to attack, the group attacks it.Kyr summons a large Dire Wolf behind the Gauth.  Below, the dance continues.Feldrix is burned by a scorching beam before the gauth is taken down.  It falls back into the hole.  They return their attention to the changeling.  Kyr has his raven collect an eye from an eye stalk below.Zig takes down one zombie.  He has yet to behit but eventually he will get tired…. The zombie will not.Fearing possible other attacks, Tyson checks other holes.  One is too deep for his light spell to show the bottom but moving water can be heard below.  The others seem empty.Once Zig takes down the second zombie the group moves on and leaves the large room.</blockquote>
