Dorgan grunts as he tries to move the heavy table aside once again, without the use of his mitts, but it is impractical. In the end he sets down his weapons and drags the table aside.

The dog does not burst through the door as feared.

In fact all is quiet in the corridor beyond...

Dorgan will look back at his companions, shrug, and push open what's left of the door. Assuming he sees nothing standing there, he'll cautiously step out into the corridor, weapons at the ready.

OOC: Can you remind me what else is out there to see?

Josiane will let Percy follow Dorgan out through the door, then fall in behind him, leaving Mads to bring up the rear.

Dorgan steps into the passage way outside.

To his left the stair climbs up to the pavilion. To his right the passage continues into the darkness... to who knows where?

Dorgan peers into the darkness for a moment, straining his senses.

Then he turns back into the room.

"The torch, if you please."

Mads approaches with a torch newly acquired from the gambling den.

With this new light, Dorgan immediately sees that there are other, cold, torches supported along the passage walls, the first being perhaps 60ft distant. He can also see, at the limit of his vision, that the left hand wall of the passage appears to have a series of alcoves, or windows along it...

"Anything?" Josiane enquires of Dorgan, straining to see into the darkness the dwarf is peering into so intently.

"Are we leavin', or explorin' further? Cause if we're staying, there's some interestin' nooks in the walls I'd wanta be checkin' out."

Almost as an afterthought, Dorgan adds, "No sign of the wee pup neither."

doctorx wrote:
"We stay, at least for now," says Josiane firmly; "I have a desire to examine these 'nooks' myself. Lead on, good dwarf."

Dorgan will head down the corridor, weapons at the ready. Assuming nothing else piques his interest, he'll proceed to the first window/nook he comes across.
