Shardorn nods. "Alright."
She then faces the shadowy figure. "We want to go to a place that is southwest of the small city of Garanasseur, about a week-and-a-half's distance by horse."
The figure nods. "Is there something you are searching for?"
Shardorn thinks for a moment. "A hole in the ground, that leads to a library."
The shadowy figure nods, and disappears.
The ground beneath you shudders for a small moment. The world seems to be whirling wildly before your eyes, spinning out of control... after a moment, though, it begins to slow down. You then realize that you aren't where you were a few moments ago...
You are standing on a hill, and a quick look shows that this hill is only one of many. A slightly warm breeze is blowing from the west.
And, at the base of the hill, there is a hole. From where you are standing, you can see that there is a round staircase made of stone, apparently heading down. A few feet away from the hole, there is a small mound.
"That's it." Shardorn says. "That's the library."

Animus ponders how everyone will decide to file down the hole... He grips his new staff in his right hand, and decides to start walking down the staircase.

Animus - you head down the stairs. The walls are roughly hewn stone; apparently, this was not the work of master craftsmen. Though the descent is slightly cramped, you manage to work your way down the 20 foot or so shaft with ease. As you go down, the light from the surface fades, and it is almost completely dark.
At the bottom, you find yourself in darkness.

Animus backs up a bit, and waits for someone else to provide a torch or other lightsource.

With more clanging then she'd like, Ruth loudly comes down the stairs following Animus.
Dang this metal can around me, it's fine in battle but... With this kind of noise battle is all I'l find!
Talking against anyone who'd listen she continues down into the twilight. Seeing the dark deepen around her she cracks out two torches and passes them to Jansson and Animus after she lit them.
Here ya go boys. Time to shed some light on this case. *muffled laughter* you get it? Case? Staircase? Haha...
[OOC: asuming Jansson goes down as well]
Ruth herself draws her sword which sheds bright pink light on her surroundings for about a 30 odd feet. Pairing up with Animus who'm she'd handed a torch she heads down into the unknown...
Euhmm... about those Illithids... I got a little confession when we get down there and someplace safe...
[OOC: I presume I took the shield if that's ok? Since I'm monkey gripping a greatsword (1 hand) /OOC]

The light from Ruth's blade reveals the immediate room, as well as some distance down a hallway in front of those standing in the room...
The walls are made out of the same material as those of the walls of the staircase, that being roughly hewn stone. The hallway's walls, however, have a slightly smoother look, and it almost looks like large stone bricks as opposed to unworked walls. The floor in this particular room is dirt, but the hallway's floor seems to be slightly above the floor of the current room, and is made out of a wood of some kind.
[Edits - added more description. Tried to change the size of the image, but it didn't work.]

Animus waits patiently for someone to explain where to go from here... pondering the safety of having a lit torch in his hands...
