[I thought Keét picked the torch back up that he threw in the room.]

Tillak comes back up the steps once Keet shows up.
Everyone is back in the kitchen.

"It is sometimes recognised as the humour of Xathoqqua; to enter into the minds of man and create confusion, so he can bemuse himself," Narrhil attempt to explain a theory that has no true foundation, yet everyone believes...

"Ythaqqa will guide me through that. He has guided me through chaos before," Tillak says, but he is not quite sure, thinking of all the chaos and uncertainty that has befell him since taking the thrice-damned priest's filth lucre.

The woods wolf howls again and hunger pangs grip the group.

Caveman · 7/28/2024 9:40 am

Narrhil nods in sincere agreement with Tillak, but is distracted by the wolf. "I hope they do not intend to attack..., we are not really for them!" He groans inwardly...

I dont recall that, I do have Votin backtracking for it.

Keet wishes to lead down the dark steps with either Narrhil's or Votin's torch. Or does get his own from Tillak?

eakratz · 7/28/2024 12:47 pm

Either of those options is fine by me.

Caveman · 7/28/2024 12:47 pm

[Only two torches are lit, I would prefer only one to be honest]

Wait for one of them to offer his , or just snatch one?
Or light a third?

Narrhil's has been burning a while.
Votin's is brand new.

Votin hands his torch to Keet, then as the last keeps a lookout for danger from the rear.

Iron Ranger · 7/28/2024 7:08 pm

Keet leads into tight stairwell. Followed by Tillak, Narrhill with light, then Votin.
Below the find the cellar as they left it.
One large wolf carcass is splayed in the walk way. Several empty glass bottles on the floor. Many glass bottles on the 4 shelves. The remnants of a campfire.
The cold persists.
The room is quite smaller than they recall, and now Narrhil wonders where to lay out his goods.

The memories flood back for Votin...the passageway and the fight with the tiny skeletons.

"There is the small back room, remember where we camped Sir Votin, it is where you disappeared!"

[Tillak and Narrhil had camped at the base of the stairs and dismantled one of the shelving units for firewood. He probably go into far room, spread the items out on his winter blanket. Ring from Kéet also and any other items folks offer. He then will place the magical items together, then wander through chambers to upstairs and to the altar].

"Please if one of the warriors could make sure the hidden chamber is empty? I will be there to assist, also!" He asks.

Narrhil will place items out on his blanket inside the domed hidden chamber behind the shelves once checked for solitude or right away?
[FYI The altar upstairs was burned for firewood previously.]

[He wait till area is secured by the warriors. Well, will scan the region, might find something?]

"I need someone with a torch to accompany me while I search these rooms."

eakratz · 7/31/2024 6:49 am

Kéet nods Votin and says “Sure I can go.”
