The kobolds look to have been killed by the collapse, but it's hard to be certain.
The man was definitely killed by the collapse. He is old, and dressed in robes.
Leithe will start moving whatever rocks are needed to expose the bodies and then cast detect magic and search them.
"We could build this old wizard a cairn, but he already had one, it seems. Then again, he needs another one now... "
After the bodies are thoroughly searched, she'll build the old man a cairn.
Xylas pitches in. He's not certain if the little scaly people deserve a cairn, but he'll give them the benefit of the doubt as well.
The old man's body has a key ring with a brass key, but nothing else of note.
"So, more keys," Xylas nods thoughtfully as he pockets another key. After the bodies are reburied more formally, he blesses the them on their way to judgement and motions Diana forward.
"Key surely will come in handy if we find the right door... hope it's not buried too."
As you continue down the passage, a trio of live kobolds appear from behind a bend. Two of them charge forward with spears, while the third, who appears to be in command, raises a bow and knocks an arrow.
Diana cuts down one of the kobolds, and dodges an arrow from the one with the bow.
Leithe strikes at the second kobold that charged...
The kobold ducks Liethe's swing and stabs up with its spear, but she manages to dodge.
Xylas angles for a clean shot at the other archer.
Mikraft moves in to attack the remaining kobold.
Mikraft cuts down the kobold, while Xylas's shot severely wounds the other. Diana moves up to the archer with her scimitar, but it ducks and moves back, drinkink a potion whoch appears to heal it.
Xylas nocks an arrow, but holds, hoping his companions can finish the remaining kobold rather than risk a shot into the scrum.
Leithe tries to hit the remaining kobold..
But again her strikes goes wide of the mark.
Mikraft moves up to the kobold and swings with his axe, felling the archer with a mighty strike.
"Well, I guess not all the little lizard people were killed by the collapsing tower. I wonder what they are doing down here?"
Xylas looks over the loot. "I don't know much about magic. You think those are magical potions, Leithe? And what kind of coins are those?"
Leithe casts detect magic.
"These are potions of cure moderate wounds... the rest are non-magical..."
"These gems are worth about 25 gold apiece... that's a total of 125 to split among us."
"Say, that's not bad," Xylas smiles. "Shall we keep going? We must be near the source of the collapse, huh?"
The tunnel moves forward, getting smaller, as it seems likely to have been made by kobolds. It winds around for quite a while, before heading out into the open air, into a large quarry, however it is partially flooded.
"I'll bet there are more of those little scaly people ahead. Let's head on back and maybe buy some more gear with that treasure we found."
"THere's a few small folk on the far side of the quarry... I think going back and resting up, perhaps spending some of our loot before venturing further is a good idea... "
Xylas leads the way out pausing only at the treasury so everyone can grab a chest before continuing out of the fallen tower's dungeon.
