When everyone is ready, Desmond tries the door...

Rattle, rattle.

It is held fast.

"Bah, I dont have time for this", pipes Gustave, "its almost morning tea", and puts his mailed boot through the door.

Gustave's boot smashes the lock and the door slams open with a clatter!

Then there is a moment of baited silence before everyone breathes a sigh of relief. There is no fire breathing dragon in the passage beyond. Instead, there is an empty passage way, in which an intersection can just barely been seen some 30ft ahead...

What now?

"Here, kitty kitty," mutters Highbough. He illuminates the passage with his lantern, not stepping foot past the threshold for fear of triggering some trap.

The passage way is cold and empty... it looks as though nobody has passed that way for some time.

Guntrum breaks the silence, "Well, that'll be a right job to board up now then. Do we check the other door or go down this here passage? Oh, and best not be forgetting that Mountain Heart on the floor, Master Dwarf, eh?" he adds.

"Highbough, if you would be so kind as to light my way, I think we should wander a little further. At least this passage appears somewhat slender to admit more of our...giant pottery friends", says Gustave, tentatively advancing into the tunnel.

"Ye don't have ta worry 'bout that, my friend. I suspect this is a treasure more valuable than anything else we'll find down here."

Dorgan will turn to Olaf and say, "Splittin' up the party ain't been such a good idea fer us in the past. Mebbe we should go with 'em if they keep moving?"
