		   Mort follows Derlan, but shrugs when he asks about which way to go.  "Never been anywhere like this.  Not sure I'm much of use."

		   Mort will follow Derlan in, looking around.  "What sort of beast makes bones like these?"  He will prod the debris, trying to see what else is in here.

		   Mort stares back and forth from the odd squawking robot to the dwarf, both speaking the strange tongue.  "You speak this thing's language?"

		   Mort hums along still, peering into the dark.

		   Mort heads home to sleep, his pockets full of gambling gold.  He's a little shocked by this, actually, but more shocked that a pretty lady like Dinali would choose to help him.  He's a little starstruck...

		   Mort seems somewhat shocked that he got anything out of the man.  Usually he's the type that makes other people uncomfortable.  He relays his finding to the others.

Mort asks for a throwing axe, wanting something heavy he can throw at things far away.  After all, he's still got his nice heavy flail, which seems to break things to a sufficient degree.

		   Hello! For the next week I will be at Gen-Con and/or decompressing after Gen-Con.  If you're there, I'll be around the Sagamore Ballroom running PFS all through the Con.  Feel free to look me up!  However I will probably not be accessing the boards much so feel free to NPC me if needed! Thanks!
