"Nice way to finish him, Chase," Krislee nods. "Hopefully Weert won't be too bad after Leng helps," she kneels down next to him.

You move back out into the hallway and go down the stairs to the next door. The hallway continues south past this door. Wirlt listens at the door, but hears nothing. A horrible smell like rotting carcasses can be detected beyond the door of this room. Once you open the door, mounds of rotten, decayed bodies of unlucky adventurers can be see covering almost every inch of the floor. The sight is gruesome to behold. You feel ill to your stomachs from the smell and the sight, and do not really want to go into the room. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice. (edited)

"Maybe that 10 ft pole would help from here to see if there is anything underneath, Hagar? Otherwise, unless someone has any other ideas, I'm okay skipping this one," Krislee says holding her hand over her mouth and nose.

“I don’t want to go in, but there might be something important in there. Krislee, can you break my nose so I don’t have to smell as I search?” Chase walks over to Krislee. He then plans to search the bodies and room.

@The Dude (Steve) Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {3} + 1d20 {18} + 1d20 {12} + 1d20 {14} = ✨ 47 ✨

Leng states "I'll not desecrate these bodies anymore than they have been. This is a fitting tomb for them, however, if you feel that you need to I'll stand by out here while you check" as he stands to the side.

Krislee looks at Chase and shakes her head, "I... don't think I can do that. Hagar?"

“Okay then, let’s move on. No point waisting any more time here.”

Hagar offers Krislee his 10ft pole. “Feel free to use it as you see fit - I’ll be out here where it smells less. “

You decide to leave the gruesome room as is and continue on down the corridor. It continues for a ways further, then turns to the right, toward the west. Immediately after the turn is another door. Wirlt listens at the door, but hears nothing. You open the door and go in. A small pallet of fresh straw lies near the north-western corner of this room. A wooden trencher, a pair of eating knives, and a pewter wine goblet rest neatly on a table in the center of the room. Several old tapestries have been carelessly hung on the walls, and bits of fur and other types of floor covering form a makeshift rug. A burning lantern hangs over the table. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

"it looks like we found where Travis lived, hopefully, no other surprises greet us" Leng says as he starts to search the room.

While searching the room, Leng discovers a peephole behind the tapestry on the east wall, that allowed Travis to watch the corridor. Chase finds a crossbow and 10 bolts behind the tapestry on the west wall. Krislee tastes the wine, it's nothing remarkable. As she searches under the sleeping pallet, she notices a loose stone in the floor (rolled a 17). Removing the stone reveals a small wooden box. Moving the box to the table so everyone can see, Leng checks it for traps (rolled a 17), but finds none. Opening the box reveals Travis's treasure. 2 rubies (worth 300 gp each), 1 large emerald (worth 2000 gp), a wedding ring with the initials D and B carved in it (worth 10 gp), and a gem-studded dagger+1, throwing+2 (worth 400gp). XP from the treasure is 3010 total for the party, so each character receives 502 XP! Next Step: First, divide up the treasure and weapons among yourselves. Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

Krislee picks up the gem-studded dagger. "This will do nicely," she smiles. "I am wondering if there are any hidden doors in that cooridor, I'd like to check." She heads out to the corridor.

@scigrrl Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {5} + 1d20 {3} + 1d20 {7} + 1d20 {15} = ✨ 30 ✨

Chase takes the crossbow and bolts. “This will do nicely. Wirlit, Hagar, why don’t each of you take a bow and Weert and Leng can take split the gems and rings?” Let’s keep searching, we’re getting closer to solving this mystery.”

@The Dude (Steve) Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {2} + 1d20 {5} + 1d20 {9} + 1d20 {7} = ✨ 23 ✨

Leng picks up a rubie and the ring noting "hmmm wonder what the initials are for?" and then assists in searching the room with Chase saying "with that peephole, he definitely is a secretive fellow"

Further searching of the room reveals nothing new. Heading out into the corridor, searching for secret doors turns up nothing as well. You head further down the corridor to the west, until you reach a door in the south wall. Wirlt listens at the door, and hears nothing. You open the door and enter. This room has a door in the north wall (the one you entered through), and another door on the south end of the west wall. Directly across from the northern door is a huge wooden table still in good condition. Behind it is a huge ornately carved wooden chair. On the table is a candle sconce, a feathered quill, a blank scroll, and a string of colored wooden beads. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

9:51 PM

“I’m gonna look around a bit, but it doesn’t look like much is here. Then let’s go South.” Chase searches for hidden doors and anything else of note. Then waits by the south door. (edited)

@The Dude (Steve) Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {5} + 1d20 {9} + 1d20 {14} + 1d20 {19} = ✨ 47 ✨

"I wonder what was done here?" Leng asks and searches the room starting with the table looking at the collection of items.

@Jetpacks22 Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {4} + 1d20 {13} + 1d20 {10} + 1d20 {4} = ✨ 31 ✨

“Surely this string of beads is significant” ponders Hagar aloud. “Perhaps this scroll has a secret yet to be revealed. “ he takes the scroll and further examines both it and the beads. After inspection, he adds them to his pack.

Further searching of the room and items reveals nothing new. Proceeding to the southwest door, Wirlt listens at it, and hears nothing. You open the door and enter. Beyond the door is a hallway with an arch near the end. Peeking through the arch, you see that the hallway turns left (south). Hearing and seeing no signs of life, you follow the hallway south to the end, where there is a door on both the east and the west sides (see green arrows on the map). Wirlt listens at both doors, but hears nothing. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice. (edited)

8:44 AM

Leng looks to the right and suggests "well shall we try door number 1? or are we at 12 now?"

@Jetpacks22 Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {1} + 1d20 {6} + 1d20 {11} + 1d20 {4} = ✨ 22 ✨

"Yes, let's try it," Krislee says as she carefully opens the door.

@scigrrl Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {6} + 1d20 {18} + 1d20 {18} + 1d20 {12} = ✨ 54 ✨

You open the west door and walk into a rather large room, 30 feet wide by 40 feet deep, which has been swept clean. No dirt or dust can be found. The room is empty of all furnishings. There is another door on the west end of the north wall. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

7:08 AM

“This seems oddly clean. I’m gonna search for secret stuff before we keep exploring.”

@The Dude (Steve) Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {5} + 1d20 {15} + 1d20 {9} + 1d20 {6} = ✨ 35 ✨

"I agree. Let's see if anything is hidden in here." Krislee starts searching for hidden doors and openings.

@scigrrl Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {1} + 1d20 {3} + 1d20 {15} + 1d20 {8} = ✨ 27 ✨

Normally I would have everyone roll to keep up the facade that there might be something in this room. I'm not going to tonight. There's nothing secret or hidden to find in this room. Next Step: Where to? Roll .turn

Chase, a little disappointed in not finding anything, continues through the door on the west end of the north wall.

@The Dude (Steve) that's an error. 'Turn' is not a valid quickroll or modifier

"Well it was worth a shot," Krislee waits just a few seconds to see if Chase or Leng get unexpectedly decapitated or start screaming horrifically before she follows them through the door.

Stepping out into the corridor, everyone fails to be unexpectedly decapitated or start screaming horrifically. In fact, nothing really happens. This is an east/west corridor outside the room. To the east is a door, 10 feet away. The corridor stretches to the west as far as you can see before your light become ineffective, 30 feet. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

"Let's check the door right here," Krislee suggests, waiting for WirIt to listen at the door and then opening it.

"One door's as good as another without a map" leng says and then follows behind Krislee

@Jetpacks22 Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {2} + 1d20 {13} + 1d20 {19} + 1d20 {12} = ✨ 46 ✨

Opening the door, you are not surprised to see that it connects to the hallway you were in not long ago. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

10:30 PM

while looking around Leng says "Well, that's a circle. but at least we now have a faster way back. I think we should go forward instead of backwards. Any objections?" and then motions to continue West down the corridor.

Heading back west down the corridor, the worked walls and floor end about 40 feet beyond the door in the south wall, and you enter natural caverns once again. There is a roughly north/south natural passage here, with what appears to be another branch to the northeast about 15 feet down the north corridor (green arrows on map show where passages continue past your what you can see with your light). Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice

Also, since it's been a while, here's a view of the full map with green arrows showing all 10 unexplored routes.

"Hopefully we don't run into any more of those cave bears," Krislee says, "North?" And she starts walking.

“North sounds good.” Says Chase and proceeds in that direction.

@The Dude (Steve) Turn Surprise/Environment/Activity/Save = 1d6 {2} + 1d20 {6} + 1d20 {11} + 1d20 {8} = ✨ 27 ✨

As you head north along the cave corridor, your light shines into the opening to the northwest. Because of what it reveals, you pause your journey north (the cave continues north for as far as you can see) to look further into the room. This small cave is filled with ornate and delicately carved life-size statues of different men and women. Many candles and other burnt offerings lie before each of the statues. Marble benches form a circle in the center of the room. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice

7:11 PM

Leng ventures into the small cave and looks at the statues trying to see if he recognizes any of them and then starts searching the room while saying "Burnt offerings tend to say that there are gods to be worshipped, be careful not to disturb too much as you don't want to anger them."

Listening to Leng's advice, Krislee avoids moving the offerings, but searches the statues to see if she can find anything interesting. (edited)

Krislee finds a wand nestled in a small crack between the arm and the body of the western-most statue. At least it looks like a magic wand. If Weert can find 3 uninterrupted turns (30 minutes) to study the wand, he should be able to determine what it is. No one else finds anything of interest. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice

Krislee's eyes light up, "This may be useful! Weert, take a look!" She hands him the wand hoping he will figure out what it is. If they aren't interrupted, she will wait 30 minutes, expectantly.

It is a Wand of Light, it works much like a Light spell, or a torch or lantern. It creates a 30 foot diameter sphere of light. The difference is you can use the wand to create the light (it will not move) centered on any object up to 120 feet away. The light will last for 6 turns or 1 hour. The wand will have an unknown number of charges. It can only be used by a Magic-user or elf. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice. (edited)

"This Wand may come in use! Fantastic!" Krislee packs up the wand and continues back to the cooridor to move north.

You walk north down the corridor. After a short while, the cave turns sharply east, then south again, and it narrows enough that you have to walk single file. The narrow cave ends in an opening to a larger, wider cave passage that heads north or east. You step out into the wider passage and discuss which direction to go next. Next Step: Describe how you will proceed and then roll .turn dice.

“How ‘bout we try East? There’s gotta be something to fight around here.” Chase says with a grin.

Leng nods and says "one direction is as good as the other when looking for answers, we can't see much though and I'm still worried about the cubs Mother. Let's proceed carefully."

You proceed east through the cavern corridor, and quickly encounter another narrow passageway that heads south around a corner. The larger passageway turns to the north, where at the edge of the light, you can see it narrows considerably. Before that narrow passage to the north though, you can see that another passageway branches off to the east again, around a corner.
