"I don't have anything especially effective against that sort of opponnet, but I can summon aid. Maybe if we could find out what type of swarm, I can see about summoning something effective against that type of critter? Or something really appealing, to lure it away?"
Arrack breaks from his brooding as they mention a swarm.
Are we even sure it is worthwhile to try and deal with it? were we not looking for caves? I admit, I tuned things out for awhile since it seemed like worthless chatter. Is there any reason to use what seems a limited resource for an unknown reward?
"It depends on the swarm, I guess. Something simple to eradicate and take its place, that's good for us. Not many apex predators or other pests will take lair where such a group lives. If we can pull it away and eliminate it with no risk, I think it's worth the resources."
"If we can deal with it easily it could be worth clearing out a future threat. If not we can go around it. I will go see what I can see."
The elf nods, not really having anything new to add on the topic, but agreeing that the team needs more information before they can intelligently respond to the situation.
