As Khel climbs the tower, he can smell pickles. The floor is wet and sticky from what looks like picklejuice. From the tower you can see little except the bramble tunnels to the south. To the west you can see the coastline and to the north is the sea. There is no sign of any activity on the outside.

Whispering back, "Let's step around the corner and give it a few minutes."

Saldrina nods, the bolt spell quietly poised upon her lips.

Khel sniffed at all the pickle smell and spoke to Wess and Shalelu, "I didn't expect so much pickle juice here in the tower. What were they doing here?" He then climbed back and checked the double doors on the north. "I guess we are going this way."

Wess follows Khel, rubbing his shoulder, and looking at the nailed door with regret.

You look around a little more, and to connected to the excercise yard you find a small storage shed with shelves filled with crude tools, net and tack for goblin dogs. A large wooden cage contains a dozen rabbits.

Going further north you come to what looks like a meeting room. A large round table with chairs around it. On what was once a chalkboard is written in what could be blood: "Find pikkel tieves!"

North of the meeting rooom two doors leads to the west. One smells like it would lead to the latrine.

Meanwhile the other team goes the opposite direction. First door to the east next to the hallway they found themselves in, contain a stairwell heading downstairs. Following the hallway to the east, past the guard tower, lead to an affront to the senses. A floul-smelling butchery contains haunches of poorly smoked meat hanging from hooks along the ceiling or heaped in and atop crates. In some cases the meat seems to be dog or horse, but in many other cases, the meat has all-too-recognizable features, like feet, hands or grimacing faces.

To the west of the butchery you find a door that seems to lead to the same room you heard voices in earlier.

OOC:
So, the north of the room smells like a latrine? We can check the west room. Also, did we save the horse?
