Day 1 – 2:30 p



.

Everyone is suprised at the sudden appearance of their missing thief. Folks start discussing which way to go.

You are at the wall face (the green F at the bottom right of the map) the red arrows indicate passages that you have yet to explore. Thus it's not the end of a passageway, it's darkened on the map because you haven't gone down that way yet. I think I hit all the highlights, let me know if I missed something.

[Alethan]

So none of us are through the tunnel and on the other side of that passage?

[rredmond]

So none of us are through the tunnel and on the other side of that passage?

Some of you are on either side of that tunnel. I just wanted to give an overview map. But, for instance, SoT, Malak and Odo are on the opposite side (east) of the stone face. You were on the western side. Some folks haven't really clarified. But you are all right in that general area.

[dmw71]

Hold one moment, you scallawag! I want to know how this came of you, so the rest of us need have no fear of becoming a floating stone head that creeps out our Priest.

Malak scratches his chin, considering his response. "I'm not sure, really?" he says. "One minute I'm marching along with the group. The next, I'm there... but not there." He appears to be bit confused on the subject, but continues: "I just new you guys needed me so I willed myself, or the floating head I became, into that opening."

---

Body still aching, Malak once again attempts to get limber. "Probably best to not just stand 'round, and I really need to stretch my legs, so let's move.... this way." Malak points off to the east, further down the passage beyond the face and begins walking.

"Follow me." he says.

[Alethan]

"Possibly we shouldn't let the man who was just a floating head lead the way..." Ilhalevar mutters to herself as she climbs into the opening to follow the rest of the party east.

[saalaria]

Varkos agrees with the decision to go East and will come through the face, to take up station behind whichever thief/ves are leading the way

[Distorted Humor]

Odo heads with the rest of the party - if he can

[tkrexx]

Grumbling, Son of Thunder calls a pause. Let me check for sign first. We should have scarecrow tracks, but mayhap there's more.

[Solinor]

As we wait for a direction Wulfgard takes a swig off his waterskin, then asks Does anyone have any food? I'm famished.

[Vargr1105]

Wulfgar's question makes Rake's stomach rumble mildly, and he suddenly remembers he only brought wine on this expedition.

"Darn..." he mutters.

[dmw71]

Does anyone have any food? I'm famished.

Malak temporarily halts his eastern progress after hearing a request for food. "Here, guys, feast is on me!" he says, unpacking a days worth of standard rations from his pack and tossing it to Wulfgard (character sheet updated). "Can you eat 'n walk?" he asks. "We really should git movin'."

[Solinor]

You are most generous Wulfgard says to Malak. I can certainly eat and walk at the same time. The gods bless you. he finishes cheerily.

Day 1 – 2:30 p



.

Malak attempts to get everyone to follow him down the passage to the east.

Malak also feeds some folks, as everyone climbs through the stone faced wall and heads east, Son of Thunder jumps ahead to check tracks.

Updated map. You are in the tunnels just east of the green F on the bottom right of the map.

The Ranger returns to the group with a somewhat sour expression. Only sign of those wretched scarecrows. Malak, since you brought us here, lead on.

[Argennian]

"And please be more careful this time, you scoundrel!" Zafalia adds, a worried look pasted upon her visage!

[dmw71]

"And please be more careful this time, you scoundrel!" Zafalia adds, a worried look pasted upon her visage!

"Careful." Malak mutters under his breath. "Sure, I'll be careful." With a quick nod of his head, Malak once again begins cautiously heading further east.

[saalaria]

Varkos rumbles something to himself then follows the thieves

Day 1 – 2:31 p



.

Getting everyone through the stone face inevitably moves Malak forward. You can see that the farthest intersection is obviously a connector to where you were before (when Odo snuck up on the spiders) toward the cocoon room. The south passage of the farthest intersection (with the stream in it) there's definitely another of your beloved waterfalls in the distance.

But more immediate, is another narrow passage to the south (the red arrow south) that you haven't looked at. It continues the width of this passage being only 3 or 4 feet in width, and thus only allowing single file movement.

Updated map. You are in the tunnels at the red X just east of the green F on the bottom right of the map. You are guided by the light of Zafalia's torch near the front, and Wulfgards lamp in the rear.

I don't like that unexplored area in the bottom left corner. :-\
