"Never very good with numbers, were you?" Desmond moves to roll behind the leader and tries to trip him.
Grung moves up and attacks the last rat
No more talk!

Desmond was able to tumble around rather than through the wererat's area thus avoiding the AOO, as he tumble he tugged at the foot and tripped the enemy.
Grung moves forward and manages to hit the prone defender but causing injury but not killing the creature.
Malcolm steps forward to I-52 and attacks the enemy.
Malcolm hits with his sword but then the wererats strikes with a bite of Desmond,

Both of Grung's chops miss the the lithe rat on the ground.
Desmond tries to finish off the little creature.
Desmond finally kills the wererat. Finally...good riddance. He thinks
One thing is obvious the leader had some nice gear and equipment...especially his two short swords.

Studded Leather- P3
The party spends a good 15 minutes recouping and looking at the newly acquired items. I assume you are going to look around the cave and I'll update the map when I get home.

Felicitas asks for the wand, as this would offer her a chance to better heal the people.
+1 adamantine shortsword
+2 shortsword
I figured you'd like those swords.
Maybe we should go back and get some more gold...now that we have another bag
"For once I agree with the dwarf."
There have been loud noises from back in the direction you came along with the numerous threats from the trolls.
Kalim looks over the items Felicitas didn't understand.
"The gold will wait. There are far more precious things here than mere baubles."
Amulet of natural armor +1
Ring of climb +5 comp bonus
No idea about the last potion
As Felic and Kalim spend time identifying the items the rest of the group splits inot to two groups to do a quick search of the cavern. the northern group has Grung an Des together and they discover with what appears to be 3 exits from the cavern. One of which is worked stone, the other two are natural openings. You do find the camping area where the wererats and dire rats were staying but there is nothing of note there but gnawed bones and furs.
The southern group with Karnog and Malcolm finds a large cavern that has one exit but the souther portion seems to extend beyond their limited vision (dark-vision) so they turn back before investigating further.
Of course you have the way you came in where the trolls were located.
Based on the post above what does the group want to do? head back towards the trolls, investigate the larger southern portion of the cavern that you are in, or venture through one of the side tunnels?
southern portion of the cavern. back to finish trolls later!
Malcolm activates his cap of light and ventures forth, leading the way south.
"Anyone still hurt?"
A 20- ft.-high pyramid of black stone constitutes the southern portion of this cavern. Runes and writings cover the pyramid’s entire surface. The ominous script, written in Draconic, reads:
“Me’Nak has gone into the void
Enter his tomb and be destroyed.
Beware intruders who disturb Me’Nak’s rest;
You are not welcome, do not molest,
Nor enter to respects be paid
You are not welcome at this grave.
Pyramid ensorcelled tomb—
Me’Nak has warned thee of thy doom!”
bah. That's dumb. Why make a tower with scribbles ya can't read!
Grung pulls his sling
bah. That's dumb. Why make a tower with scribbles ya can't read!
Grung pulls his sling
With a small whistle Aurora descends.
"This is the tomb of someone called Me´Nak. It says it is warded against molesters. Now I think who makes here his tomb does not belong to the good guys, but still.... It sounds quite bad!"
Desmond sees if it's trapped.
Desmond even taking 10 you are not 100% certain that the pyramid is trapped but you certainly think it should be.
Desmond you don't detect any traps but likewise you can't find any mundane methods inside the pyramid either.
"Looks clear to me."
What do we do with it? Slide down it?
Grung checks the stones for a way in, now that he knows it is safe
Gung begins to inspect the smooth stone, not touching it, just looking at the structure but he does not find door. It looks like a tomb but you don't see a way inside.
Weaving an incanation Felicitas checks for magical auras.
Felicatas the pyramid does detect as magical.
"I think.... we should leave that for later. This can only be entered by magical means. Wich means heavy... magic."
The link above shows two maps of cavern and the tunnels.
can we go kill the trolls now?
"Aye! Lets kill those trolls!"
The group makes their way back into the next large cavern. One thing that is obvious to you now is the trolls were busy while you were exploring. they have blocked with rubble, stone, and wood debris the passageway back into their lair.
there is a south tunnel.
