[UaVS] The Silver Door IC

"Likely they imagined the Duergar would only trap the door that led to anything that was remotely valuable. I'll admit I don't spend much time with Duergar myself. Smelly little things."

Wesellu wrinkles his nose at that, as if the very thought conjured up the foul odor for him.

"Their reasoning seems to be at least somewhat sound. If I had already obtained the door, I would defintely do my best to make sure no one else could reach it. Of course if I were ... paranoid ... I might lay traps simply to mislead thieves. But that way of inquiry lies madness."

Wesellu finishes talking just as an odd tick begins in his cheek. Almost idly, he rubs his amulet as he examines the doors.

Brogark stands, stretching. he had beenwaiting for at least an hour now, and the Hobgoblin Captain was getting impatient.
Looking at the fawning male Drow, he shook his head slightly. He would have to keep a close watch on the Mistress, these buffoons sure were not keeping wary enough.

Grolvus cleaned his sword, looking between the Half-Ogre and the Troll. Both dwarfed him is stature, whic was OK by him. They presented the more desirable targets and he was just fine with that. Grolvus was starting to get nervous. The other Party might even now be closing on the 'Door', and then Duchess Ferach would find horrible things to do to them all, and Grolvus liked his skin just the way it was. Siddling up to Arngen, Grolvus whispered 'Well, which way is it, eh? After the Cessulli or one of the untried doors perhaps?
 


Enraela sighed - a bit irritated. "Well then, after the Cessulli trash it is. Maybe a few of their heads rolling about on the floor will put me in a better mood." She left the rest of her sentance unsaid but pretty much well implied about who would bare the brunt if they didn't reach the prize first...and she wasn't intending it to be her.

Sweeping an arm toward the door, the drow priestess spoke coldly with a glint in her lavender eyes. "After you."
 


*Map to Follow*

The Tunnel is a narrow affair, a mere 6' wide in most places, damp and lit by faint glowing fungus.
Arngen and Grolvus creep forward, using their stealth to best advantage, away from noisy Quest-Mates.
The Yunnel proceeds soe 60 forward before ending in a trio of doors, one continuing on straight (West), the other two opening North and South respectively. It is unclear as to which door the Cessulli chose.
 

Walking down the narrow hallway Nurthrak eats the last pieces of the Kuo Toa corpse he brought with him from the dam. His razor sharp teeth and claws easily strip the meat from the bones but his usual ferocity while eating is gone. He seems to be deep in thought.


.....House Ferach, strengthened by the treasure we seek, might find their newfound power to be a liability. The stronger houses shall surely try to ceize our sweet prize, Cessulli will not be the last... However great the power they aquire they will find themselves to be a target once again and by themselves they will always be too weak. Yesss, one way or the other they will share that power, either buying themselves a shield or falling before the sword.....


Smiling thoughtfully he taps his chin with the remains of the Kuo-Toans webbed hand, then opens his mouth and swallows it.
 


Arngen detects no traps on any of the three doors. As well, it looks as if whoever went before has swept the floors to cover which path they took.

Grolvus waits with sword drawn, obviously waiting for Arngen to decide.
<Waiting on festy_Dog to make his apppearance>.
 

[ooc: sorry about the wait and all, just reading through the thread so i know whats happening, can Grolvus' character sheet be found in the rogue's gallery somewhere? feel free to go on without me :)]
