Liam would also like to go into the mount.

I would very much like to see this magic fluid. And from what the dwarves tell, there are a great number of sites of interest to me deeper down.

"Some of my friends, Torgyr you know, encountered these black skeletons before. They seem to be animated constructs, there bones veneered with this black sheen. I doubt they are random undead risen as guards, who is creating them? what purpose do they serve?"

"Do we wish a quick expedition with the other group to show them what we wish for them to recover, and to keep the first area clear? This also occupies them from delving to levels we haven't explored yet."

"Aye, that might just be the thing to do. Once they are established we can head deeper into the mountain."

"Sounds good. I would like to ask them to recover some of the trappings of Mavor's temple to use in the chapel."

Ok, so this group, the Delvers, is willing to accept a job from you.

There are five members of the delvers:
Asceline, a Thief,
Fortin, a Fighter,
Lorenz, a Fighter,
Rique of Tyche, a Cleric
Thonyn, a Mage.

The rate that they will charge depends on the level of danger you assign them.

It would be 5 gp/day (140 gp/month) for guard duty somewhere safe,
It would be 20 gp/day (140 gp/week) for routine duty in a secure part of the first level, where danger is known and avoidable
It would be 140 gp/day for combat/exploration duty in level 1

They also want a full share of any treasure recovered to split among themselves, and if any of them die, your group must make a payment to next of kin of 140 gp.

They will happily draw up a contract with the local bondsman so everything is above board. What, precisely, do you want them to do?

I think we need a specific aim for them and looking the the Dwimmermount map of the first level I would say let us put them in the western rooms. 14 - 19 and room 23. get them to block off and collapse the secret tunnel from room 19-20, securing the west end of the building. This leaves them guarding only two entrances into the area, the door into the statue room and the door into the ghost chess room. It also secures the use of the Oracle.

We could all open the door 14 as we have the knocker while we are there and then when they are settled we go down the stairs or clear the kobolds.

the liquid gas room, was that room 37?


Any improvements on that or other suggestions? Plus I think we need to decide a 'leader' for them from our party so they take the directions from one of us not several different plans.
