The Retrievers - Chapter 2

[Elocin]

"Yes, don't open it until I have a better look at it." Sten says, concentrating to get a better sense of the strength and type of magic involved.

Sten carefully takes the map from Mindal as Mindal lets slip a sigh of relief. Carefully examining the map Sten sees that the source of the glow is of moderate strength and seems to have the aura of abjuration. He knows it is definitely from the arcane side of magic and does not know if this trap could be disabled or possibly dispelled.

[sblock]I forgot to mention that no one noticed you palming one of the gems and once everyone's attention focus's on the map you see that you snagged a ruby before you place it in your pocket.[/sblock]

"That's what I get for underestimating these guys."

"I am fairly certain that it is a trap. I don't think that we should open it. From what I can tell it is moderately powerful and definitely an abjuration of sorts. Anyone else have a clue what it might hold or how to disarm it? Perhaps we ought to hold on to it till the boss can take a look at it." says Sten upon completing his examination.

"We should keep it safe until it can be disarmed properly, no need to take a big risk when we are in unknown territory." Reinn adds in taking another step back.

Sten stuffs the map away in his pack for safe keeping. "Agreed. So shall we rest up here with the horses safely in doors and head out again tomorrow?"

"I vote for a rest. I wonder how bad the storm will be tomorrow. I'll just have a look at the sky." Mindal takes a look outside and makes a prediction.

OOC: Are you guys back when I hear you now?

It looks like there might be some light snowing but nothing to really hamper your travel. You also notice as you peak outside is that the snow has completely covered your tracks and because of the lip of rock over your head the mouth of the cave will be covered by snow shortly so no one else will be able to see that their is a cave here, unless of course they know about the cave from previous travels.

(ooc: I was assuming that they would have brought everything out into the larger room after they found the chest and what not, so everyone I would assume is in the larger cavern.)

 

[Wilphe]

"Have the kobolds got anything we might consider edible?, If so lets grab it, any supplies will give us that little bit more endurance. I for one do not fancy wandering the countryside in the dark and snow, so lets hunker down, set watches and hope to make good time tomorrow."

"Sounds good, anyone still injured?" replies Sten.
