The area has four ruined buildings and a series of three standing stones. The ruins seem to consist on initial inspection of a stables and an Inn, the Medusa's Head. A town house and a building that looks suspiciously like a wizards tower. The tower is the tallest building in amongst the ruins reaching up to four stories high, though the upper level and roof seem to have crumbled in on themselves. The Inn seems to be in relatively good repair though the room has a few holes in it, same with the stables and the Town House. There seems to be no real reason why the settlement was abandoned.  |

OOC - Youve been up and fighting most of the night.....But it would make sense to search the area first.  Cathmhaol rubbed his eyes and ran his fingers through his hair. The release of tension now the combat was over left him feeling drained. "Let's get this place checked out," he said, "We need t' get some rest an' sommat t' eat..." and he waved Rumbleskin and Dace in the direction of the inn. |

OOC:
What did Dace discover/conclude from checking all the buildings on his circuit? I'm assuming he's still actually jogging around the area checking for signs of life and stuff.

OOC - Basically quiet and empty. Nothing untoward about them anyway. Other than what Ive described above.
In fact think of that as what Dace found out ;D

As Dace and the dwarf enter the inn through its ruined door, the inside is dry but is wrecked.  |

Looking at the wrecked inn, Rumbleskin rolls his eyes at Dace, shrugs and states simply: "Wel, may as well look to th'essentials lad" as he makes his way behind the bar...

Dace nodded as his eyes scanned the corners. Murmuring a reply he followed the Dwarf before moving to check out the cellar, creeping down the stairs...

After a bout ten minutes searching, you find two bottles of ale and a bottle of firewine. Nothing else of note, rather than a few dirty glasses, otherwise intact and sound. |

Cathmhaol pulled a face at the meagre pickings. He stomped through the open doorway to the right of the bar and peered up the stairs. He drew his sword carefully and, testing each step as he went, slowly and quietly made his way up the stairs...

Zeric looked around the abandoned inn, searching for signs of how long the place had been abandoned...
OOC: State of decomposition of food... "a bit fuzzy with mold" - a few days versus "Liquefied and utterly stinking" - a few weeks...
How much dust is on the counter tops? What state are the timbers in? All of this can tell us roughly how long it's been empty...

OOC - lookig at what remains, and there isnt much, the length of the grass and the general state of everything. You are looking at been abandoned months/years rather than days/weeks.

After a bout ten minutes searching, you find two bottles of ale and a bottle of firewine. Nothing else of note, rather than a few dirty glasses, otherwise intact and sound. You head down the stairs into the cellar of the Inn. The first thing that you notice is the smell of the cellar, its a strong and powerful smell of rotting food (particularly meat ) and vegtables. There is mould and slime coating the walls of the first room.  |

He drew his sword carefully and, testing each step as he went, slowly and quietly made his way up the stairs... Delora shouted after Cath, "Cath Imcoming with you." Her sheild and axe raised, ready for an attack. Cathmhaol went up the stairs and found himself in a corridor that has a set of stairs at the other end. The set of stairs at the end go up to a another level. There are a number of unopended doors on this floor.
OOC- OK wheres Zeric & Rumbleskin heading?
Cath?
Dace?
Somewhere else?
