Chapter 1.2: A Marsh - Under the Tower (level 2)

[TheMyth]

Myrrh

"Is everyone all right? Even if we are all safely out of that cloud, the trap worked to split the group. We should have a contingency plan in place for next time to try to prevent that."

Does it look to be dissipating?

It will linger for 1 turn, which gives everyone 10 minutes to do stuff.

[TheMyth]

Ellith

Coughing away some of the insidious gas, Ellith crouches next to Faron - "How are you my friend? Do you sense anything strange from that direction?"

In Canine

"I smell swamp. Dirt. Frogs. Not sure."

Faron sneezes again.

[Rex]

Myrrh

"It looks to be clearing, we should wait it out. I will search here for secret doors while we wait."

Myrrh searches for anything they might have missed here.

Myrrh

"It looks to be clearing, we should wait it out. I will search here for secret doors while we wait."

Myrrh searches for anything they might have missed here.

If I recall correctly, only the western wall was checked....and you came from the east. So, north or south?

[Dicey]

“Maybe a quick dash through wouldn’t set if off?” said Gromp.

The dwarf peeked left and right at the T without stepping beyond the corner.

North

Myrrh searches the north wall while the gas clears, but find nothing.

[TheMyth]

“Maybe a quick dash through wouldn’t set if off?” said Gromp.

The dwarf peeked left and right at the T without stepping beyond the corner.

Gromp peeks down either end of the T. To the east he sees a door. To the west he sees a small tunnel about 5' in diameter.

[Rex]

Myrrh

Once the cloud clears he will lead his group through to find the others.

[BaltoBruiser]

Brondulm

While Myrrh is checking the North wall, checks the South wall for anything out of place which might indicate there is a concealed or secret door.

[Dicey]

While waiting, Gromp ate some beef jerky, checked his belongings, and tried to remember anything about how he got down here and with whom.

[Edeldhur]

Ellith

(So which way is South on the map, to the left? )

Ellith informs the others about what Faron sensed, and keeps watch in that direction.

[TheMyth]

Ellith

(So which way is South on the map, to the left? )

Ellith informs the others about what Faron sensed, and keeps watch in that direction.

North is at the top. Ellith is at the T intersection on the lower left.

[Darithe]

Lia

Listens as Ellith interprets what his companion senses. She dips a bit into her food supplies and slips a treat to him, "Good boy," she says softly.

[TheMyth]

Myrrh and Brondulm find no secret doors. Once the gas clears, they can rejoin the others in the southern hall if they like.

In the meantime, Ellith, Faron, Lia, Gromp, Vali and Brinna wait for them at the intersection. As his nostrils clear, Faron is quite sure he smells "outside" from the small tunnel heading west.

And there is a door down the eastern corridor.

[Edeldhur]

Ellith

Faron sniffs the treat, then gobbles it up, wagging his tail at Lia.

"This tunnel to the west might lead outside" - Ellith informs the others, after making sure everyone was ok from the gas - "So it might be worth it to investigate, in case we need to leave in a rush?" - he suggests - "Then we can explore the rest"

[Rex]

Myrrh

Myrrh leads the way to the others.

"Is everyone all right? Did you find anything?"

[Dicey]

“Aye, outside,” agreed Gromp. He couldn’t seem to remember any of his missing time.

[TheMyth]

If I read properly, does the group intend to go into the tunnel? If so, I recommend Vali or Gromp (or both!) take the lead....

[Rex]

Myrrh

Sure, works for Myrrh.
