Vane whispered hoarsely, "What is it Dace? Another pit?"

OOC: I think Mr Zeric's pussy has a chronic inability to spot traps... Vane whispered hoarsely, "What is it Dace? Another pit?"

The Tressym flies, the triggers tend to be pressure plates. Not surprising really. Of course if it had triggered them it would be lying in the middle of a pit spiked, probably have landed on its feet though
;D

Dace was on his knees, quietly working away at the floor. Keeping every attempt to speak, with a finger across his lips. The caravan guard worked the floor of the cavern, prodding it with a dagger and other tools, that seemed to have been secreted around his body.
After a long period of silence, something like 5 minutes, there was a loud click. A look of panic passed Dace's face as he knew he had set off the trap, looking upwards he dived to one side of the cave curling his body into a ball shape
From the ceiling 20 large pendulum like blades swung down in sweeping arcs, with a force that would sever a limb or worse. However, as they reached the bottom of their swing. They stopped. Suspended in a vertical position.
A moment later, Dace looked up and smiled at the others. From the back of the group a long slow clap could be heard, looking backwards its Nimen. Smiling broadly she spoke, "Well done my little freind. Well done. It looks like we can walk through "

It looks like we can walk through " "P'r'aps ye'd like t' do it next time, eh?" said Cathmhaol sourly. He scowled at Nimen as he pushed past Zeric to stand next to Dace. "Ye reckon it's safe t' go on?" he asked the younger man.

Zeric hung on Dace's reply. He summoned Tress back to sit on his shoulder, calmed by the Tressym's presence.

Dace nodded. "Reckon so." He kept one hand behind his back, fingers crossed. He sighed. "I'll lead." No sense telling them to go on if I wouldn't do it myself...

"Wait!" Zeric called as Dace started moving, "It's not exactly a ten-foot pole, but it might suffice to feel the way, and I plan on having little use for it."
He handed the caravan guard his shortspear

Dace nodded at Zeric, taking the shortspear and beginning to prod for more pressure-pads, tense and coiled ready to spring away if he heard a tell-tale click.

OOC- Nothing happens. By mistake or by design youve disabled the trap (for the moment)

Letting out a silent breath of relief, Dace approached the door cautiously and pressed his ear to it, listening...

Vane gingerly stepped forward and weaved through the suspended blades, being careful not to touch them in anyway. There sharp blades gleaming in the torchlight.
"Right what about this door?" he asked quietly

Ignoring the undead hunter, Dace listened for close to a minute before turning away from it.
"Nothing. Can't hear a thing. Mind you, it's heavy."
Dace then turned his attention to how the door opened, such as handle and locking mechanism - without opening it. He also did his best to tell if the door or lock was trapped.
