After a short while, Dieter feels three tugs on the rope, and hauls Wibert back up the chute.
The excited little fellow reveals that Olaf, Victor, and Gustave are all safe in a passage way below.
What now?

"I guess I was wrong to turn back prematurely," ponders Pelenwin. "I guess we're luck Wibert happened to drop in on them."

"We are lost up here and soon to be without light and food. While Olaf and Victor have found a door out of this place with a store with food and torches.

Very good.
Dieter handles the anchor end of the rope as the rest of the company, one by one belay down the chute. It is difficult work in very dim conditions, what with the full load of treasure everyone is carrying.
Wibert is the first one back down the chute, followed by Ulric, Highbough...

Once they are all down, Dieter coils up the rope and lowers himself into the chute as gingerly as he can with all the gear his is carrying...
