The Wayfarer's Inn

Eilkhan nods at Gaderon. "Very well." She moves forward once more and does her usual job.

Eilkhan searches the door for traps and, finding nothing suspicious, tries to open it. As it turns out, she needs some assistance here for the door has obviously not been opened for centuries and seems to be stuck. Grinding dirt and sand on the floor, she and Sol slowly force the stone slab open. Very dry and stale air wafts out from behind it. Before you lies a narrow staircase leading down into darkness.

Eilkhan looks back and tells everyone what she sees. Activating her Gem of Seeing for light, she peers down the musty staircase. "Okay, here I go again." She looks for a traps right at the door, the walls, the ceiling then the steps before even entering. Once sure it is safe she will advance and do exactly the same thing until she reaches the bottom.

Sol says to Eilkhan "Wait, shouldn't we check the rest of the rooms here, before we leave this chamber behind?"

"I think so too", Kherim nods to Sol.

Ivid nods.

"But be careful, just one at a time."

The bowman gives a burned smile.

"Back in my homeland, there is a place they call 'the tomb of horrors'. Elmo and I just barely survived our last venture in there.
-And it was not HALF as deadly as this place seems to be."

After the second flight of stairs (OOC: The one depicted on the map), a narrow corridor stretches ahead into darkness as far as Eilkhan can see. The air down here is very stale. Will she continue ahead or return to her comrades?

Gaderon will watch the others and glance about the room sorting through his many spell components and checking his reserves. He is ready to advance but perhaps it is best not to leave any possible dangers behind them as they do such. There is so much magic just hazarded about this place it makes him both admire the effort, and yet flinch inwardly at the paranoia of this places creator. Hopefully there was little more to the place, and they would soon rid this tomb of the evil laid to uneasy rest here.

Suddenly, a voice next to Sol and Kherim says "Boo!". Then Eilkhan appears out of thin air on top of the stairs, winking at them as she does so. She then describes what she has seen downstairs.

Kherim is surprised to see Eilkhan appear just like that.
"What sort of new trickery have you found now, Eilkhan?" he admonishes her, after he relaxes from his suddenly tense position.
