With some work, Grin and Ishzu work to move the mimic's body around to serve as an impromptu walkway along the edge of the slime. Taking care, the group is able to get to the goblin's entrance with a couple scares, but no issues. Once they fully make it, Ishzu pushes the mimic's body a little deeper into the pink slime so it is fully submerged.
OOC:
While it would have been hilarious to make Ander, Oliver, and Brewner make some rolls, I'm not. We've spent enough time with the pink slime. For now.
With just one path to follow the group works their way through the passage. In the middle of the passage, there is a widening that has fungal growths in it, but the center section is barren with a sharp border around it. It appears the initial goblins using this passage had had an encounter, but it has obviously been cleared a while ago. After a long 30 minutes, the group finds themselves in another cavern system.
The cavern you have appeared in is large (at least 100 feet to the far side) and extremely dark. You have entered from what Grin believes to be the southern side of the new cavern. Close to where you come out of the passage, you can see a small area that Grin can tell has been used multiple times as a staging area with the remnants of a fire pit. While there are no embers, it has been recently used. Most likely by the warband that attacked your campsite in the other caverns. As you get ready to make your next move, you hear movement to the east, and when you look you see the dim flickers of torchlight beginning to be evident.
A voice calls out,
"Fizzer! Dlank! Is that you?
