Ceirn nods and waits to let the others move forward before following behind as the rear guard.
Simon shrugs and presses forward, focusing for pattern recognition of traps.
Tolenn nods at the suggestion to move forward, commenting as she bobs her head, "At least the can keep a beat...."
She follows Simon, her eyes watching the halfing with professional interest. She quickly determines that he's much better at this than her, and opts to help out instead of compete, whispering to him of any possible signs of traps etc she might see.
Simon steps cautiously forward, swinging his torch to and fro, looking for signs of traps. in the ground, the walls, even the ceiling...
and yet, he finds nothing. just non descript worked walls of stone.
The godling notices the exotic weaponry on the fallen foes. Vonda picks up one of the axes. "Obsidian. Nice."
"Ah yes. Light. The bane of all cave dwellers. I'm sure it will chase them away, and not lure them to us to meet their gruesome end" she remarks as he swings his torch about
Olga dance walks as she seems unarmed, though capable of drawing and throwing a shuriken with ease,e was enjoying herself. She does produce a Iuon Torch and let it hover about her head.
"How about some soft light!" She giggles the torch just hovering about her head.
"I do not mind others attracting hostilities over myself. The grave has yet to call my name" she nods at Olga
Vondal chuckles. "I imagine some days that Call can get rather loud, eh Astrillith?"
"I hear the call every day. But my name hasn't been called. So no need to answer. But I don't mind ushering others if I hear their name called" she looks at Vondal "So far no names present"
The godling silently blows the tiefling a kiss, out of admiration and to annoy her.
"If we move swiftly, the call may not be so loud." Ceirn says as he moves towards the opening.
"We shall see" and her reply to Vondal is simply a half rolling of her eyes, while Pac hisses at him
"Oh to join the Divine Revelry! Music, dancing, games and fun for eternity! It is hard to resist the call. Brightwater is a wonderous place!" She says as she smiles beaming.

"Many have to traverse other realms first. Styx, the boneyard, to say the very least. Many dangers lurk in the shadows." she adds her own... Insight
"True, I could be gobbled up by the lurkers who sherk the laws of the cosmos. Still I am hopeful and full of joy!" Ogla says unphased.

Astrillith looks her up and down and a smirk escapes her usual stoic face "I'm sure many a creature would certainly love to gobble you up" Pac unhinged his jaw as the snake widens his mouth to the fullest
Simon sighs to himself as the party banters in the most dangerous place on Faerun... he pauses and grins despite the dangers, waiting for the others to catch up before he moves forward once more.
Tolenn crosses her arms and shares Simon's amusement at the other's commentary, adding her own ,"Do they usually chat so much...hard to do important work otherwise!" she says with a smile of her own.
You both gather near the end of the long stone hall. Simon hugs the wall while Toleen hangs back. Near Simon, the wall drops away, revealing a large entry into an equally large room. Simon sweeps his light into the room quickly, and then more slowly having seen no immediate threat in the room.
4 large pillars in the center of the room stand, silent sentinels in the underground chamber.
the thick smell of rotted flesh fills your noses, forcing an involuntary disgust frown upon your lips.
Aside from the smell, and from your vantage point, the room is empty....
" Alot of people say I am a banquet to devour, though I'm sure they are just having a good laugh" she says giggling.
"Honestly though I just love to dance and jest and juggle. Drink and make merry. The food is only a bit of fun!" She smiles as she then pauses and looks at the two scouts.
Tolenn crosses her arms and shares Simon's amusement at the other's commentary, adding her own ,"Do they usually chat so much...hard to do important work otherwise!" she says with a smile of her own.
Simon chuckles, "Yes and Yes".
Simon pads back, "Smells like death in the next room, it appears empty, four pillars but I cannot see the entire room from where I stood. Clearly, with my light, whatever in there knows something is near by..."
He pauses, "Astrilith, do you wish to attempt to remove that ring before we proceed or do you still fancy it despite it nature?"
