Tillak moves closer to the hole and sees how close he can get to the hole before he can see what's on the other side without putting his ey to the hole.

Tillak moves past the 3x3x3 foot block of stone and looks into the wall opening. the hole is 3x3x3ft in the wall.
He sees moving torchlight and hears footsteps on the stone floor beyond.

Votin reexamines the racks of vials...perhaps he missed something the last time, maybe another entrance to the room upstairs.

The racks hold many dusty glass bottles of red liquid.
A several bottles of clear liquid are mixed in.

the glass is hand blown, and covered in a thin coating of dust.
The cork stopper is still intact. The liquid inside is crystalline clear, about 80% full.

The cork is brittle but slides out of the bottle intact. The clear liquid smells stale and vaguely salty.

Tillak extinguishes his torch and does so.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Votin recaps the bottle and secures it and a red vial in his pouch, then prepares to enter the tunnel again.

As he adds the bottles to his pack he sees movement inside the wall hole through the last shelving!

Votin comes around the shelf to find Tillak the Warlock poking his head through.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

If TIllak can administer first aid, then he does.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Tillak searches his pack for anything to ease the barbarian's recent battle fatigue but comes up emptyhanded. And his spellbook only holds Shatter and Shove.
