Delve 18

[Vortimer]

Naillus would like clarification. The paints are all dry. Does that include those who have spilled? Is the spilled paint completely solid or just the top. Naillus will not touch the paint in any case. He will use a pole to test. He will then ask, "Do we chance opening one of the closed cans? Or just move on?"

[Makofan]

There is no real depth of paint on the floor, so the spilled paint is all dry. His pole slightly scratches the paint as he pokes and prods

[kipper]

Maloof is ready to move on.

He next wants to investigate the doorway to our south (the easternmost door on the south wall) and see where that passage leads.

[Makofan]

Anybody else want to do something in the paint room, or ignore it and move on like Maloof suggests?

[merias]

Aldbane agrees to move on.

Maloof is ready to move on.

10' south, then turns east in the second 10' section. 10 more feet east, then turns south in the next 10' section. Immediately turns east, going a total of 20 more feet to a door

[kipper]

Maloof approaches the door and listens, then steps back for it to be opened.

[Makofan]

You open the door to find two fighters armored head to toe with plate mail and shield, wielding swords at the ready. They pause when they see you. One says "Are you adventurers like us?"

[merias]

"We are indeed adventurers," Aldbane says. "I am Aldbane, a cleric of some reknown. And who might you be? Do you know this level well?"

| Let's see what they say, maybe no need to fight them if we can hire them as mercenaries. |

[mushgnome]

Franklin strikes a pose in the fashion of a competent adventurer. so the strangers know he is a force to be reckoned with.
