[p Man,leather,spear,hand,12,7/7]Beringar[/p] and [p Man,leather,short-sword,hand,12,7/7]Armando[/p] take to the stone floor with their picks, making Thor's Own Din as they pummel the rocks relentlessly by the light of [pp Man,robes,lantern,hand,12,9/9]Ulric[/pp]'s lantern and [pp Maiden,leather+helm,sword,torch,12,9/9]Josiane[/pp]'s torch...

...their first blows only jar their hands and raise a dust cloud, but with a half dozen shuddering strikes the pair dislodge a couple of good-sized rocks near the edge to reveal the "mechanism" of the trap. The "lid" is a segment of 10ft long cylinder, wedge-shaped in cross-section, with one flat edge facing up. The whole of it pivots along a metal axle embedded in the floor and through one corner of the wedge, allowing the "floor" to drop--with all haste--and swing harmlessly into a back-cavity adjacent to the pit itself. It appears [p Man,leather,spear,hand,12,7/7]Beringar[/p] has just knocked a couple of stones out from over the back cavity... a hole beneath the ledge where Highbough stood. It's about 6ft deep.
| It is two minutes since the trap was sprung.
What now? |
