Descent into the Underdark

Most of the goblins are securing the crystal you retrieved from the spider nest cave. A few of the others are rummaging through the supplies and are under the impression that Ishzu is a statue and plan to take him a spoils of their raid as well.

Brewner is forced to use his knife to cut a slit in the back as the tent is sewn tight. Once large enough he opens it and peers outside so see a small squad of four goblins loitering to the west. They glance towards the camp occasionally but mostly are looking to the NW, which is the way back to base.

You wait till they are looking away and move one at a time to the cave wall, away from the torch light. Unfortunately for you one of the goblins heads toward the tent while you are still in the process of fleeing . . . .

Ishzu fights the urge to leave stasis as while in that state his limbs naturally lock up.

More than half of you are out of the tent when one of the goblins to the west calls out in goblin. There language has drifted from the common but you understand enough to know he is uncertain who is there and seems to be calling out to identify yourselfer.



Brewner and Grin are across by the wall. Either Ander or Oliver is caught in the open with the other still in the tent with the front being approached by another goblin.

The guard is struck hard and stumbles back gasping and slaps one of his neighbors who whirls to see his mortally wounded companion.

Through the gloom of the cave it is hard to make out the distant figures but they have yet to raise the alarm but you only have moments to act. The other gobing in camp are all illuminated by the lanterns ther (red/yellow cinder icons) and those of you still in the tent or near it are similarly easier to spot than Brewner and Grin who are in the shadows of the south wall. You all doubt that you can take out all of the goblins after seeing how deadly their use or arrows can be.
