Date : Ches the 9th, Year of the the Rogue Dragons (1373 D.R.)
Location :The Dungeon of the Rotting Scales
Time : Early Hours of the morning
Weather: Unknown, your inside. The dungeon however, is musty, damp and unusually warm
The three adventurers where standing holding a rope for what seems like an eternity. Not feeling any pull on the rope, began to get worried.
"Zeric, I dont think Cathmhaol is coming back." Moaned the elf maiden.
"there must be something terrible in that tunnel except for that murky, filthy water."
Zeric just replied
"Wait"
Another few moments passed before the sorcerer started impatiently,
"Well maybe....."
Before he could finish his sentence, Dace broke the water. Taking in a huge deep breath. Closely followed by Cathmhaol doing the same. As Cathmhaol was about to speak, Dace stepped forward and spoke
"There's a longish swim, not too hard, and you come out into an area with some guard dogs or similar. Couldn't see how many."
He passed the two golden bracelets to Nimen. "Found these."
Nimen smiled in reply,
"There magical too,protective magic" Tossing them at Zeric, she smiled and said
"Might do you some good, I think we need to get you better protected, Sorcerer. "

Cathmhaol shivered as he ran his hands briskly over his body, flicking the water onto the floor. He sneeezed violently, sending snot perilously close to his comrades.
"Aye, there's dogs there - nay idea how many. But they're guard dogs so ye've got t' ask what they're guardin'?" he said. "So, what d' ye want t' do? Go back an' take 'em on? Or carry on down the tunnel an' see what's down that way?"

"Im no' sure we can all get alon' the tunnel. Im no a good swimmer, Cath." replied Vane.
"Sure they're dogs? Might be something worse."

"So lets get this straight. You want to swim though to the other side with a rope, pull through those who cant swim. Whilst there are dogs, wolves or worse on the other side? Do you think they'll keep still while we do that?" Questioned the elf maiden.

"Ye've obviously got a better idea," snarled Cathmhaol, "so let's hear it!"

"No I dont actually. Other than following the other passageway." Replied Nimen curtly, continuing with her point.
"Neither Vane nor Zeric seem to be suited to this task and it seems to me that these dogs may attack while we are pulling people through the tunnel. However, it may give us an element of surprise rather than walking through what could be the main doors. Of course the main decision is yours Cathmhaol or are the ' Daggers a democracy?" she smiled at him sweetly her nose crinkly in what seems annoyance.

" I really don't think it makes good sense to take the water route, Cath... Besides, the transit will be difficult, nay impossible for Tress... My counsel is to follow yon passageway through the door - take the land route... Of course, the final decision as our leader, is yours," Zeric offered his opinion while examining the bracelets. |

OOC: I didn't find the bracelets but I'll accept your thanks anyway!  Cathmhaol eyed Nimen suspiciously. "Democracy, eh? Aye, we'll stand around an' chat when the shit's goin' down, shall we?" He didn't wait for an answer but turned to Zeric, "We need yer flyin' cat so that rules out the tunnel - we'll head down yonder. Dace, Vane - take point!"

 This is the view at the junction, the cave network runs about 40 foot or so before ending in what looks like a heavy wooden door. A number of torches light the way.
ooc- You are standing at the very top of the passageway, I need to know how you are going down the corridor. Dace and Vane first ? Zeric, Cath and Nimen? |

Creeping to the door, Dace presses his ear close to it and spends a minute listening, regulating his breathing so it doesn't interfere.

Near the door, Dace freezes in place and holds out a hand to indicate the others should stop. Then he motions with a finger to his lips to request silence. Finally, he begins feeling around on the ground in a square shape.
