The Wayfarer's Inn

Unless he can't carry her up to the others, he will climb up carrying Eilkhan, assuming that the time to put on the boots would be too long in this situation. If he finds he can't carry her and climb up, then he will stop and put on the boots of levitation and use those to get up to the others.

It's no problem for Sol to get Eilkhan out there again. He's strong enough for that, plus the others can help dragging them both up. The thief feels better with each passing minute by the way, the feeling of evil leaving her again as fast as it came. Still, there's something left, but it seems to be quiet and sleeping....

Sol says to the others "What do you make of this evil feeling she has?"

Gaderon says "If you think itis a curse, I can cast a remove curse spell on her. Ahi? Kherim? What do you say?" As he waits for their answer, he will prepare to cast the remove curse spell.

"I feel better now, but it feels like I still have something inside of me but it is sleeping. Does that make sense? Can a curse do that?"

Ahi shrugs and says
"A curse it must be, but I don't know if our magic is potent enough for that. I can cast it myself, if you allow me."

If Gaderon does not oppose, Ahi casts Remove Curse.

Ahi's spell does nothing to remove that vague feeling of some dark impurity hidden inside her. But then Eilkhan feels very much like herself again. So what now?

"Thanks Ahi. I feel much better but it still feels like there's something in the pit of my stomach sleeping. I am not sure I wiah to return down there, to be honest."

"Very well", says Kherim, "then we go see other places where we still had some choice. I'm not sure we can make progress through the slanting passage, but we can at least try. And at any rate, there are still those doors at the entrance."

Sol says "I think that we should go down this secret passage below us. I am willing to go down." If nobody objects, Sol will go down the rope back into the mouth of the passage.

Gaderon will use his boots of levitation to go down in the pit and look down the passage to see what he can (not actually going into the passage), while preparing a magic missile spell.
