OoC:Jemal, I said 5 or 6 people, a few hours (2 to 3 tops)old.
Arngen and Grolvus move into the passage, noting that it is sized for smaller beings than the bugbear, though he is used to goblin warrens and he makes do.
The passage continues North, moving steadily higher as it does so, perhaps having elevated some 15-20 feet after a 70 or 80' length. The tunnel ends in a circular chamber some 20' in diameter with a stairway opening into the West wall, as well as a stone door in the north wall. there is no sign of anyone here, although it is plain that someone rested here a bit, as they didn't make any attempts to cover their waste (yep, it smells a bit like a sewer). It is clear in the dust of the chamber that someone went through both passages, one group up the stairs, one group through the door... Wesellu's Bat flits ahead as well, relaying this information back to the Wizard.
