Wildwood RiTaC III Gannu Mines

"She may be injured. Inamar, I believe the potential emergency overrides normal mission parameters. I will procede." NR4ZN heads for the door, but will halt immediately if asked to stop.

"Hold up just a moment. It would be rather rude of us to just barge in her front door if she's just out back working in her garden or something. Having her view us as trespassers or thieves isn't a great negotiating position."
 

"No, he's right. If she were just hurt, she'd be calling for help," Inamar decides. "Lets go take a look."

She trots forward and carefully bumps the door open with a foot. "Hello? Are you home? Are you well?"
 

NR4ZN stops abruptly when Weylan speaks, then moves forward, ready to shield the rest of the party with its body should there be hostiles inside.
 


There is no answer to Inamar's call. Peering inside the entry way you see an unoccupied room. The aromas of various herbs and plants permeate the air here. There is a woven reed mat upon the threshold. A wooden bench and chair inside face a firepit where the embers have long since turned to cool ash. A forked stick lies next to the fire pit, perhaps it was used as a fire poker or other tool. The chair sits next to a wooden table near one of the window openings. There is a wooden plate upon the table as well as a crockery pitcher and some clay mugs. The openings have animal skin curtains bound by vines.

Openings to a small hallway and to a larger room can be made out.
 

Inamar hesitates on the doorstep and concentrates for a moment. In her eyes the world seems to dim and fade until the only light is the 'light' of nearby magical effects. Through these new eyes she cautiously surveys the witch's house for curses or other nasty tricks.

(using Detect Magic...if magic is found, she'll concentrate longer to pinpoint the source.)
 


While Inamar stands at the threshold looking for signs of magic or foul play, Weylan makes a quick circuit of the outside of the hut looking for signs of recent activity.
 

Inamar's eyes focus in and she starts to see sparkles of magic in the entryway. The reed mat definitely, the vines holding the curtains, the platter on the table, and the stick near the fire. The sparkles are a shifting array of colors, changing magic you think (transmutation).

Weylan's quick circuit does not reveal recent activities, but he thinks he spies vents that indicate there are underground chambers. At one point while checking it out he thinks he hears a thump from below.
