Adlbane agrees with finding the source of the flute sounds. Assuming we proceed north and west along the main corridor, he and Bannon fall into the marching order.

Aldbane watches the floating hat with amusement, then he and Bannon move into the room once Maloof gives the all-clear.

Aldbane raises his shield and moves off to the corridor edge, urging Bannon to do the same in case some magic is fired downrange.

For 300 gold, and a half treasure share, you have your choice of three experienced adventurers, who have heard of your deeds (about lvl 3 characters)
Bannon, a Paladin of Law
Henry, a fellow cleric
Cassandra, a soothsayer

The Paladin sounds intriguing - let's go with Bannon.

coffee is retiring his character, but we have had so many characters play, get a magic weapon, and then retire, taking it out of the party, that I am going to give Aldbane a Mace +1 so he cam join in the fun. I am sure another +1 weapon will eventually show up for Maloof Excellent, thanks! Aldbane ...

Aldbane keeps back and waits to see the result of the wand.

Aldbane, waiting behind the others, readies his hammer - if it comes to that he'll move forward into melee with the Ogres | (he has no offensive spells left) |.

Aldbane is fine either way, he has lots of oil and can use that against the blob. It won't net us any treasure, however, so maybe it's better to move on.

Franklin is willing to defend Aldbane while he checks for invisible swords. It seems worth verifying whether there is or isn't a sword, before we move on. Should only take a moment.

Sounds good!

Aldbane scraps his plans for now and moves to the western door with the others.
