"Sir Venemar, a word...?", the pompous magus stated in a rather urgent voice, as he headed away from Elmo's prison as the others carried out the paladin's orders.
Trying to be discrete about what he was about to say, despite the crowded conditions, Albionus spoke in urgent, hushed tones.
"I have no willingness to stay in these tunnels more than is needed, but — unless I am mistaken — our mission was to disrupt the sea devil's plans, not evacuate the unfortunate prisoners of these hideous monsters. Is this a tactical retreat, to set Elmo in the relative safety of our ship? I fear that if we fall back now, the Sea Devils will fortify this position even more. And if they have not yet responded to our incursion, it must be that they are still unaware, or facing other troubles below."
