Last known doorEllianna smirks at Merylynns comment and then proceeds to move up right behind Merys and ready for action. Silvervein in her left hand and hand crossbow in her right. ::No need to alert to our presence just yet with Moonbeam::

"I am ready when you two are. Lets get this finished"

DownwardSouth Tower, Cellar level 2

And so the search begins, Room 19One room looks to have been storage in the past
Rats, adventurers and other vermin have rooted through this place and reduced the contents to nothing more than a rotting carpet, broken wood, canvas, and rat feces intermixed with some pottery, glass shards and rusty bits of metal.

The Room 20next room looks to have been something like an Officer’s Room in the past.
A few pieces of broken furniture desks, chairs, and cot frames) are strewn about.

The Room 21next room was most likely the barracks.
And as in a previous room, the remains of 5 bunks and 10 footlockers litter the floor. The footlockers have all been opened with crowbars, and the contents strewn about. The scraps of cloth are now mold covered mounds of
sludge.

The Room 22next room looks to have also been storage. Much as the previous storage room, rats, adventurers and other vermin have reduced the room’s contents to nothing more than a rotting carpet, broken wood, and rat feces, mixed with pottery and glass shards, and rusty bits of metal.

Moving into theroom 23 next room, you find a passage collapsed.
The corridor here has collapsed, looking like something burrowed into the cellars several centuries ago.

The room 24next room looks like it used to be a Guard room. This room is now empty except for a layer of mud 2’ thick. The remains of 2 destroyed statues ( looking exactly like those former stone guardians you all fought) can be seen poking out of the mud and silt.

As you move to the room 26last room on this level, you see some Area 25 on mapstairs leading down. These stairs are choked with mud and it won't be an easy feat at all to try and move down them without the aide of a rope or something else.

The last room is like the other storage rooms and the material once stored there rotted long ago. Nothing but residue is left.

DarklinDarklin will look for any secret door and compartments that could have been missed. Checking the footlockers for false bottoms and hidden compartments. Moving through methodically following the others.

Mud and Muck and down we goEllianna moves along not too happy to be slopping through the muck, catching her boots every once in while in the suction of it almost pulling her foot right out of the boots. She continues and checks for
Dice Secret doors:
1d6 3
1d6 6
1d6 3
1d6 4
1d6 2
1d6 5
1d6 5
secret doors in each room.

If nothing is found and she ends up at last room and looks down the stairs. "It looks like we are going down unless someone finds some other passage or secret door. " Ellianna looks a little perturbed. "We seem to be going farther away from Del, not that we have much choice."

DownwardSouth Tower, Cellar level 2

No secreted doors or concealed passages or rooms are found. Everything seems to be as it looks.

Looking down the stairs now that this level is clear - save the fire beetles - someone just needs to go down; perhaps with some help or a rope or something, but go down nonetheless.

Merylynn Gravelgut
Merylynn stands at the top of stairs as she removes her backpack. Rifling through her belongings, she gets 50ft of hemp rope50 feet of rope and looks for a place to tie it to. Once it's tied she tugs at it to test its durability, then offers it to one of the others. "This should work. Make it easier to keep your feet on the ground on those steps."

Slip Slidding awayOnce Mery sets up the rope, Ellianna follows Mery down the steep steps holding on to the rope to keep from slipping. Once she makes it to the bottom, she pulls out both swords and she sets up a defensive position while the others work their way down the stairs.

"All the noise were making, no sense not pulling Moonbeam out."

“Into the darkness the light we bring,
Singing and swinging our swords will ring,
Bringing to the end another evil being.
So follow us now and hear us sing,"

Dropping to level two.

Darklin will slide down the rope once it is attached. Making sure the Family Jewels are protected and that the rest of the party is ready.

"Well here goes nothing. Once we are down here it will be harder to get back out. Might be a good idea to leave the rope tied to something."

Elysande stood ready, "I can go down first my vision and training will allow me to look for any further traps or items of concern. I agree we should leave the rope secured here in case we need it to retreat."

DownwardSouth Tower, Cellar level 2

As Elysande moves down the stairs, she sees the same Glyph of WardingGlyph rune on the left side wall that was on the wall by the stairs where the Stone Guardians were. Positioned as it is, stepping down into the lower level and off the stairs will set it off.

The water is knee deep to everyone at the bottom, and waist deep on Merylynn.
