From what I gathered, Jaqir is still standing in the tunnel, right below the opening into the floor of the room where the wounded skulk, Fhen, Rand and Dracone are gathered. Also, the skulk has seen him and seems quite distressed by his "fiery looks".As far as Toe, he's either next to Jaqir, or back into the other hall, watching over the other prisoners.
DM, correct sofar ?

I'm trying to go through the posts but I'm a little confused about where we are at the moment. Anyone have a short summary?

Toe is back in the barracks watching over the tied up skulks. Jaqir is in the tunnel below the room -- he didn't succeed in climbing up. Fenryl, Rand and Dracone are up in the room above the tunnel with the newly captured skulk.

After going ahead through the southern tunnels Fhenryl, helped with Dracone's magically lit shield, managed to find a vent going upwards towards what seemed to be another empty room (at least he could hear nothing). He attempted to use an old dungeon-crawler's trick by tying a small mirror to the tip of one of his crossbow bolts, in the hope of having a small reflected view into the room above, before having to enter it in a defenseless position, but he was deterred by the fact there was no-one with said-mirror on site. Back in the barracks and after a brief deliberation with the group, he and Dracone both returned to the vent and Fhen hauled himself up, to be instantly set upon by another hidden Skulk. After a brief battle where they were joined by Rand, who managed to heal Fhenryl from a nasty gash in the thigh, they took the creature prisoner and are now ready to send him back down to Jaqir, who's waiting below. The skulk saw Jaqir's face and got somewhat intimidated into cooperating, at least it seems that way. Meanwhile, Toe's still in the barracks, watching over their first 2 skulk prisoners, who were healed by Rand... (to be continued)p.s: sorry, that wasn't exactly "short".

Fhenryl senses that the skulk is sincere in aiding you for the time being, if only to preserve his own life. That isn't to say he's to be trusted in a dark room alone, though.
Rand attempts to put the skulk in his place to ensure that it acts on its best behavior. The skulk listens, nodding and smiling as innocently as it can manage. "You will not be betrayed by me, Shiny One. Where do you go first? To the elevator or to the rat?"

" What is your name?"
Rand begins going through his backpack. You see he brings out a small leather balder filled with lamp oil and un-hooks his lantern from the side of his backpack.

" Well Hadan, do you mean this lantern or the man on fire below?"
Rand then looks towards Dracone and Fhenryl.
" Well did we want to stay up here and look around or meet back up with the group below?"

Fhenryl swings around and gives Hadan a dark look before turning to answer Rand: "I say let's ask our new 'friend' here what this room is here for... It doesn't seem to be of much use, except to get filth like him to hide away, then try and murder us !" While saying that, the half-elf takes another long look around the small chamber, looking especially towards the dark corners and the ceiling to try and spot any other entrance, or air vent.
After making sure his sharp eyes have missed nothing of interest, he then bores his stare into the skulk, almost spitting his words with cold rage but keeping his temper in check as he addresses their coerced 'guide' with visible reluctance: "What was that you said about a Rat, shookyir ? Anything we need to know here ? Speak, before I use this sword to lob your ugly mug off your shoulders...!", then as he notices Hadan's fleeting look towards Rand, the wild half-human brings his face real close to the skulk's and whispers between clenched teeth: "... unless I decide to cut off both your blue ears first, and chuck them to my burning friend down there for him to barbecue. Oh you're absolutely right, scum, our Sun Priest would not approve, but I think you know I'd be willing to live with that. No tricks here, just tell us what you know about the dangers ahead !"

Knowing this could grow very ugly very quickly, Dracone is split. He knows they need the answers for their safety and to solve the mystery and save the children but, the way Fhen is going about it just isn't right. Dracone thinks about this very carefully.
Making the threats in order to save the children isn't really evil but, following through is. So far he hasn't really crossed the line.
I'm going to rejoin the others below and se how they are getting along.

"Great idea Dracone, anything Hadan needs to say can be heard by everyone."
Rand offers to help Hadan down, once we're all out of the room I'll let Hadan walk towards the room with Toe ahead of me (after picking up my shield).
