The Wayfarer's Inn

Eilkhan removes two vials from her bag. "Shall I try to take one or two to see what happens?"

"uh.... take just one, we never know."
Kherim gets ready for any surprise. Ahi does so too.

Sol moves to the north (top in the picture) end of the room to be better able to look down those two corridores for any approaching danger.

Ivid spits the chewed tobacco on the ground.

"By Hextor, make sure we don't summon anything again."

Eilkhan uses a dagger to carefully scarpe off a glow worm into her vial. She then looks at the walls again.

The little worms seem to be completely harmless, and Eilkhan successfully secures one of them inside the vial. Nothing happens as she does so, and there are also no noticeable changings inside the tunnel.

"Well, then why don't we take more of them? We might somehow improvise a lantern in case for some reason our own light falters", Ahi grins.

"I could do that, yes, but my Gem of seeing won't burn out anytime soon Ahi." She winks at him. "Okay I am going to go further in now, so be ready everyone!"

The rogue moves farther down the passage, checking for traps and surprises. On the way she gathers a few more glow worms. They might come in handy, who knows.

The phosphorescent glow grows stronger as the thief moves ahead, closely followed by her comrades. Still detecting nothing that smells of being a trap, Eilkhan reaches the entrance of yet another chamber of the same large size. This one is completely made of a deep black stone. Phosphorescent figures of strange beings silently and slowly writhe on the walls, or - on a second look - inside the walls. Their shapes ever changing, they look strangely insubstantial, as if on another plane. Two dark tunnel openings lie on the other side of the hall.

Eilkhan inspects the floor and then the walls and ceiling. She does this without ever entering the black floored room.

"What do you make of this, guys?"
