Descent into the Underdark

"The goblins came from the north, should we go south and hide? wait for them to pass, but they know we are here, they will search for us"

Brewner thinks about what the king chess piece says and gives a little chuckle. He thinks to him self "Maybe you can pestern some goblin"

Yes, south and hide. If they find us, we just blow them all up.

Before going south Brewner throws is shovel slightly to the north, in the hope to trick the goblins

Before going South, Grin shatters all five remaining alcohol flasks in a strategic circle, encompassing the entire section of cave between the junctions. He splashes one in the darkness path, two across the Northern junction, and two more across the Southern junction. in the case they follow, we can light all of the alcohol with one torch, creating a circle of fire with folks trapped in the middle (I hope).

I could go to the north and light the fire from there. They might not suspect you to the South! I can hide in a corner section somewhere under my cloak and maybe they’ll follow me later.

Grin can put all the alcohol in the dark area opening, then go to the north of ‘C’ just to the left around the corner. There he will peek out from around the stone to watch the dark opening. And he’ll hold a lit torch and his crossbow at the ready. He’ll have one of the alcohol fire arrows ready to light in his crossbow.

Basically, he’s planning to fire a flaming arrow into the dark space once the goblins come through to break them up and cause confusion. Then he’d go and hide somewhere in case they charge him. Hopefully the friends in the south can either hide or catch the goblins by surprise?

Grin commits to his plan, makes a little somersault roll away from the group and heads North to set up his fiery ambush plan. On his way up, he sees a crystal clear pool with a faint luminous glow. Thirsty, he dips in his waterskin to fill it up, then takes a nice big swallow before heading to find a hiding place.

Our knightly fellow readies Trusty Sling, just in case of trouble! And with valiant resolve, he hides and keeps his trap shut, all in the most heroic manner imaginable.

"We've left our two crystals behind. Ishzu seemed to be doing okay, though."

With his heart beating fast due to the escape, Oliver stays hidden with the rest and keeps quiet for a while, accompanying the aura of solemn heroic silence emanating from Ander. He keeps the bat in his hand, adamant to make it work when the goblins come out (if the goblins come out).

Grin immediately regrets drinking the water. He collapses on all fours and curls up under his cloak (which is still a dark, non-reflective material).
