Arjun barely dodges the falchion swing. "Oho! You almost had me there!" He swings with his wakizashi at the man's belly.
+1 wakizashi
Suny "Eeks!" in surprise that the island is raining people continuing to watch in her surprise at every one's reactions.
She knocks lightly on the door again,
"Hello? Is they any body there?"
We will keep it moving.
Kyranda takes another swing at the guard she secreted off.
The guard takes a swing at her with his falchion.
Both side swings wildly.
The remaining guard at the tower takes another swing at Arjun, angered by his taunts.
Suny hears nothing from inside the tower except for maybe some kind of dripping sound?

End combat.
The heavy wooden door to the tower appears to be locked from the inside. The moist ground is already absorbing the blood from your recent kills.
Suny puts her ear to the door and listens harder/closer.
"I hear somat..."
Dimitrious will head over by Suny. What you got going on over here?
Suny holds a finger to her lips and continues to try and listen.
"I in't sure...."

Suny Can hear a dripping sound coming from inside the tower. It almost sounds like a light rain.
Looking around Jax sees that there are no obvious ways in on the walls of the tower. There are arrow slits that one might be able to squeeze through if one was a lot smaller but the best be for getting in is the door or maybe the roof.
From up above Calah sees the wooden roof surrounded by stone walls. There appears to be a chimney and a set of stairs that provide access to the floors below.
Calah's head peaks over the wall. "Wait up fellas, there's an entrance here. Havok, go fetch boy!" Havok swoops down and starts picking everyone up one at a time and delivering them up top unless they resist.

Dimitrious happily accepts the free ride to the top
Suny frowns, very puzzled about what she's heard. She doesn't resist the great hawk's attention. The ride even eliciting a 'Wheee' of joy from the exhilaration. (^_^)
Arjun gladly accepts a ride to the top of the tower, giggling at the exhilarating sensation of flight.
When the acid hits the door it eats away a little of the wood. You see that you could get through the door this way but it would take a little bit of time.
Dimitrious will look down the stairs if he sees nothing he will make his way down hugging the shadows
Noro definately is not too happy about being picked up by the bird, she struggles a bit, but not enough to break the grip. though those that know her realize she probably could have gotten free if she wanted to.
Once on the roof Suny scampers over to the edge and looks out over the vista.
Within a minute Havok has moved everyone does not mind to the top of the tower. The view is beautiful as you take a moment to soak it in. You can see for miles. You can make out little wisps of smoke from villages on nearby islands and the sea has calmed to be almost like glass. The rustling of leaves almost obscures a slight laughter coming from inside the tower. As Dimitrious looks down into tower he spots a large amount of oil seemingly spread on everything.
Be careful on the stairs folks, it's all greased up, anyone got a sleeping bag or something to lay down on top of this mess
Suny stays and admires the view for a few moments more before skipping back over and peering down the stairs along with every one else. She sniffs experimentally.
"Here.. wouldn't want that ta be catchin' tinder... " She warns.
"Let's pick some of the ash from the fire pit. Should do the trick. Otherwise I can try to wash it off with create water."
@ Suny: The oil is recognizable as whale oil. Probably harvested not too far from here.
Suny is her usual enthusiastic self when it comes to scattering the watch fire's ashes about to help lessen the effects of the oil.
"Maybe we should, y'know, call out ta' people's down in'a tower?" She asks quietly.
The room at the base of the stairs seems to be some sort of dinning hall. The chairs are pushed back haphazardly and there is still warm porridge on the table. It smells like it was flavored with nutmeg and cinnamon. The door leading to a master bed room is propped open. Inside you find a bed with a down stuffed mattress as well as a couch, table, and chest. This room, unlike the last one, does not have any oil in it.
"Noro dear, could you keep watch of the stairs down? Arjun the chest?" Calah says when she comes down after ordering Havok to guard the door down below.
The bedroom was once a room filled with fine furniture. But is now clearly the abode of a madman. There are papers strewn about and strange diagrams etched into the table. Under one of the diagrams is carved the phrase Must wrest control. Tacked to the wall are more drawings depicting what could be construed as a ship, but the drawings were done with the skill level of a young child.
The chest at the base of the bed is of a good construction and appears to be locked. On the floor near the fire place is the pelt of a white bear, common in northern lands like Irisen but unheard of in these parts.
"That pelt would do nicely in the captains quarters." Calah says with a grin.
Dimitrious will examine the drawings of the ship. Hmmm...Although these drawings appear to have been done by a child someone apparently thinks this has some importance
Suny gingerly moves into the room and begins to look around at all'a stuffs. Delicately balancing on tippy-toes so as to limit the amount of... stuff.. she has to walk around in.
Upon Calah pointing out the rug Suny 'Ooo' in wonder.
"T'is like tha' sand on'a beach! But.. 'tis furry!" She skips over, makes sure she's a clean as she can before slowly kneeling down and stoking the marvel...
"Ooo.. is so soft..."
Soon the tanned Elf is lying on the bear pelt,
"Feels niiice..."

"What have we here?" Arjun bends down to examine the locked chest, keeping an eye open for any traps.
