Faerieth throws another dart, this time at the mite at the far end of the entangled growth, that falls almost laughable short of her target.
Arlen snaps off a shot at the remaining mite.
Making eye contact with the nearest mite he slams the side of his axe against his shield.
"Gonna lop your head clear off if you dont stand down!"
He called down doing his best to intimidate and distract the creature...but not getting into the entangle effect again.
Big John pulls his well broken in hatchet from his belt and hurls it at the mite with all the force he can muster.
”Catch this!”
”Oooh! Ouch!”
”Heh, that’s gonna leave a mark.”

”Heh, that’s gonna leave a mark.”
The battle is over.
What do you do now?
As the battle quickly comes to an end, leaving only the rustle of entangling vegetation and the sound of the group's breathing, Faerieth commands the local plantlife back to it's natural state.
Yaron says, "Let's get the other boot, then head to find the witch."
"alright you 'eard him boy, find the boot."
He said sliding off Sebastion and pulling out 1/2 of the magical boot. He let Sebastion take a good sniff of it before letting the big boy loose to track it down.
Big john walks over and retrieves his hatchet.
”Are there more of these little crap bags down in their hole? I guess we gotta be ready, but hopefully we can get the boot and scoot on out.”
He begins windlassing the heavy crossbow to reload it.
Arlen stands by with an arrow nocked.
Sebastion sniffs around.
None of the mites have anything of value.
The scent leads directly to the cave. He looks back at Darry, nose wrinkled.
Arlen prepares to follow or back up whoever goes into the cave first, Russet at his side.
Yaron casts light on a stone, and then looks to the others, preparing to toss it into the darkness.
”If it’s big enough we can all go in, or we can tie a rope to Darry, heh heh heh.”
The entrance is 4 ft tall and 2 ft wide.
"well then, good thing you tallfolk brought a properly sized hero along eh?"
He muttered with a sigh drawing out his axe and shield and letting a shrill whistle out for his mount.
"Right behind me boy eh?"
He began before heading into the hopefully lighened by the glowing stone Yaron through in cave.
Just before Darry heads into the cave, Faerieth taps the point of the halfling's lance, uttering a druidic whisper as a warm glow spreads across it.
Arlen waits near the entrance of the cave.
Yaron tosses a rock with Light on in., Faerieth casts Light on Darry's shield.
Darry starts to go in, Sebastion right behind him.
Pressing in, he begins to smell garbage cooking, and starts to see the cave interior.
"Gah! They are terrible cooks, looks like some sort of kitchen setup."
He called back as he crept closer with Sebastion with him. He glanced around constantly looking for an attack from the shadows.
Arlen waits anxiously for Darry's safe return.
Sor puts his back to the opening and watches their backs.
The Sebastion's snarl is Darrys only warning as four mites lunge to him out of the dark!

"Bloody Ell! Found Some! Back boy!"
He called out as he took a step back and braced behind his shield. He let loose a shrill whistle and focused on the foe on his far right, letting Sebastion loose to murder the ones attacking him.
”Damn it.”
Big John gets down on this hands and knees to crawl in to help the Halfling and his loyal steed-dog.
He holds his light crossbow up looking for an opportunity to skewer an evil mite or sock one in the face with his fist if the opportunity presents itself.
”A little tight in here!”
He lines up a shot and fires.
”Get some feybag!”
Faerieth groans, setting aside her staff and drawing her sickle, before crawling into the opening.
"I am not built for this." she mutters, squeezing through the opening, and letting out a quiet curse as she scrapes her hip against the jagged stone.
Yaron winces, Tight space... not really ideal for archery..., but draws his blade and waits his turn.

Easily dodging the incoming attack, Faerieth steps in close to score a light cut with her sickle.
Arlen follows Big John's example and tries to hit one of the mites with his bow.
He snarled as Sebastion let out a tiny yelp followed by a deeper angrier growl.
"Now you buggers have gone and done it."
The stalwart Halfling cried out swinging his axe viciously at the one in front of Faerith and beside him.
Sebastions growl and feirce biting grew even more aggresive.

Faerieth steps over the body of the fallen mite, in a hunched over crouch, trying to attack the next of the creatures, but the limited room to move makes it near impossible.

Yaron starts forward to support his companions - unable to get there, especially in tight quarters, he begins to mock the mites instead, "There once were a little blue mite/ Who thought he could put up a fight / But then deep in his den / Came huge Sebsastian / And the beastie keeled over from fright."
Despite being in a fight, the halfling cavalier couldnt help but to start to laugh.
"You 'ere that boy. You are going to be famous at this rate. Get 'im."
He said over the song point his Axe at the mite before taking his own order and hacking at the mite. The large wolfdog hurried around the firepit and attacked with another snarl.
Sor sucks his teeth in frustration. "Draw them out! Take away their advantage!"
Arlen fires again

Arlen fires again.
At this point, the mite turned and what looked to you as the mite tried to grapple and cut Sebastion’s throat. Resisting, Sebastion whirled around in place, and in the scrum it looked like the mite somehow mounted the riding dog. Sebastion whirled and ran about trying to buck the tiny monster off, caroming off of several walls before falling in a bloodstained heap.
At first fearing the worst, on examining you see that the mite is thoroughly crushed and Sebastion is only dazed from a knock to the head.
A more careful examination of the cave reveals that a goblin overlord hidden in the darkness beyond waiting in ambush had been caught by Arlen's arrow and nailed to his crude throne of bones. His crossbow still loaded with an alchemical explosive fire bolt.
There are mounds of debris, stacked boxes and hanging sacks that had all kinds of garbage, intermingled with some more interesting stuff.

Yaron says, "I'm wondering how many homes and camps the mites pilfered to amass all this... I mean, unless we think they actually need to shave? The dagger is magical, by the way."
”I can’t get in there! You guys all okay?”
John shouts in nervously.
