Searos watches the whole exchange with an amused expression on his face.

"I have a question. If they have already had time to build a rather large barricade across one entrance and keep it continually soaked in oil and precious precious whiskey (Searos wipes his mouth at that word) then how will more time allow them to prepare more? Are they going to build a bigger barricade? Maybe make it more flammable? I'm fine with exploring the other cavern. Let those guys rot for all I care."

"Sorry Echo, being below ground reminds me of things best left forgotten." Brax says in response to the Mage, "Please forgive my outburst."

"Very well, let us explore." She steps forward slowly, "Coming?" She asks the group.

Gunter sighs, "Very well...let's be wary" he says, moving to the front of the group.

Echo lets out an annoyed sigh, but follows along behind the group.

The cavern is roughly circular. When you stand at the entrance (at 6 o'clock), there appears to be an exit near 10/11 o'clock. Unlike the corridors, whose floors are the rock of the cliff and sloping downward, this cavern has a nearly level floor of packed gravel and sand. Its ceiling is just a little higher than the corridor's. There are growths here and there on the ceiling and walls, most look slimy and somehow fungal.


(OOC: Who of you goes where, and by what route (direct, along the wall...)? I need post for everyone before we proceed)

"Well, what do you think the chances are that opening leads to the rear of the bandit's position?"

Searos eyes the ceiling suspiciously "Won't know unless we look, I suppose." He starts heading to the other exit following the wall but keeping one eye on the ceiling.

So it is: Gunter and Vee in front, Searos and Brax next, then Amon and Dogmeat, Echo and Kim in the rear, and all keep to the cavern wall.

As they carefully move along, nothing happens, but Searos could almost swear one of the growths on the ceiling might just have moved, but it could be a play of the torchlight as well.

The exit opens to another corridor just like the one they came in through, a little longer and not quite as wide. Kim's torchlight illuminates it up to the point where it turns to the party's left.

"Interesting, there are many types of moss and fungus underground, I wish I would have studied better." Brax comments looking upwards, moss, what was it about Moss...?

"Its just silly moss, silly moss can't hurt us." Vee says walking in the front with Gunter, silly people.

"You would be surprised at what can hurt you," Echo states absently to Vee as they continue forward.

... does the group continue beyond the bend in the corridor?

"Well come on Muscles, stop blocking the path. We didn't come all this way to just stand here gawping at a hall way, now move it!"

Brax moves slowly to the bend, keeping the warriors either side of her, as she looks around, she walks slowly, cautiously, removing her staff from her back she prods the ground and the walls, glancing at the Ceiling. "Use Caution, they may have set a trap for us, please be ready with a missile."
