"Yes, let us find the stairs." Maloof agrees.

Re: Delve the Sixth

You say your goodbyes and head north to the T-junction. Based on your understanding, the west door contains an ill-tempered manticore. Heading east, you are about to take the north passage when you hear scratching at the east door - ignore it?

Re: Delve the Sixth

Wiglaff removes his helmet & steps to the front of the party to have a proper listen at the east door. How frequent is the scratching noise? Does it sound much like multiple scratching implements (e.g. claws) or a single scratching device (e.g. a knife)? Are there any other noises?

He doesn't even need to get that close. He can hear scratching, thumping of bodies against the door, and a weird sort of hissing that might have once come from a human mouth or mouths

Wiglaff backs up & looks around the group.

"Sounds like something dangerous! Should we open the door & deal with whatever's beyond? or jam the door so whatever it is can't break out & bother us later?"

Re: Delve the Sixth

Grampus ponders, "Groth said the stairs were in the North West corner and the beast was just north. So I wonder if the beast was in the door opposite Groth's room but 10 feet farther north. If so, then perhaps the west door at this T junction is the north west corner where the stairs are. Perhaps we should check it first before we open this east door hiding the nasty scratching sounds."

Vesh says, "Maybe we should explore a bit more and see what else we might find first. What do the rest of you think?"

Re: Delve the Sixth

Wiglaff scouts up the corridor (north) and peers around the corner to the west.
