The Descent

[wolfpack]

nothing seems to have changed

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven "Shall we venture forth?"

[MonkeyWrench]

Gregorius agrees to move onwards, "The forces of evil cannot be vanquished if we stand around, let us do Gods work."

[Todd Spengo]

Gregorius agrees to move onwards, "The forces of evil cannot be vanquished if we stand around, let us do Gods work."

Letholdus says, "Let your words reach Marduk's ear! By his justice, I tire of these fiends!"

Oralorn scans the group for any overtly wounded comrades and doesn't see any dramatic wounds, "seems like we are ready to foray further into this infested hole"

[wolfpack]

The tunnel leads northwest for 60' where it branches, continuing northwest or branching southwest.

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven if still leading will go southwest.

[wolfpack]

the tunnel goes southwest for 40' then turns south for 30' then southeast for 40' where ahead you see a large stand of tall mushrooms. you can see the tunnel beyond continues southeast and branches off south west

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven "Hmm I wounder what they use these things for?"

[Todd Spengo]

Letholdus adds, "What uses, indeed. If these things do not have their own designs!"

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven "Certainly are large enough for a gnome to live in." he smiles at Ruk.

[ravenn4544]

"Well, food is one use they can provide to the denizens of this lair. Also, my former maester used to tell of the magical properties of some types if mushrooms. I have never been one for alchemy however. And the way our luck has born out thus far it is also possible they are beasts of a sort themselves and consider US food! I suppose a quick and cautious look could do little harm?"

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven being semi familiar with mushrooms that grow in the wilderness examines them a bit more. "You know I am used to the typical mushrooms that grow in the woods, some edible others not. Even some used for poison but I've never seen anything like this before."

[Rukellian]

Um.... exactly how big are these mushrooms? Would it be something that Ruken would recognize, being an gnome and all that?

Ruken approaches with the group cautiously to get a better look. His pick axe is still drawn as scans the area around the mushrooms, looking for anything that may be out of place in a garden of foods.

[wolfpack]

As you cautiously approach the giant (3' - 4') mushrooms They begin to let out a piercing screech.

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven takes out his sword "What the hell was that?"

[MonkeyWrench]

Gregorius raises his hammer and looks about, "Calling for aid?!"

[Todd Spengo]

Letholdus winces. "Whatever it is, I like it not and it does us no favors."

[wolfpack]

The screech is long uninterrupted and seems to be coming form the mushrooms.

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven looks for the exits and heads out of the mushroom area.
