Delve the 11th

[acodispo]

Assuming Franklin judges the roof to be solid, Wiglaff will edge into the room (keeping close to the wall) till he can get a better look at the stain around the nearest pillar. He won't go within five feet of the pillar, but will squint at the stain with his Elf Eyes to try and discern its nature.

[Makofan]

It is a fairly large, irregular splatch, maybe 2 feet x 5 feet (but not in any recognizable shape). It seems to have a slight green tint added to the grey of the stone floor (the ceiling looks good)

[mushgnome]

Franklin's curiosity gets the best of him. He calls Wiglaff back to the group and then (once Wiglaff is safe) plinks the "irregular splatch" with a sling stone. "Stay back!" he warns his friends.

[Makofan]

Nothing abnormal happens, the stone behaves like a tossed pebble should

[kipper]

Maloof is in favour of circling the room counter-clockwise (hugging the wall) and checking out the 'eastern' exit.

[mushgnome]

Maloof's plan sounds good to Franklin. Hug the wall and hope for the best. He keeps Sconces on-leash.

[acodispo]

Sounds good!

[merias]

The plan sounds good to Aldbane.

[Makofan]

Are you touching any walls, or touching any pillars?

[kipper]

Maloof's primary aim is not to touch any of the pillars. If he can also not touch any walls, so much the better, but if it comes down to a choice he will press against a wall in order to avoid a pillar.
