Anwyn pauses at Ulric and Olaf's advice, and shrugs her shoulders casually.

"Don't you want to know what is so funny?" she peeps, genuinely surprised.

"Later." Olaf says then nodding toward the passage to the left says, "Let's check out this way first."

Word of what transpires is whispered down the line, all the way back to Dieter, Michele and Caine at the rear, before Olaf carefully begins to lead on into the left passage...

While those at the lead peer around the corner into the torture chamber, those at the rear of the company are just passing the great, iron bound double doors... it sounds now as though be the source of the unnerving echoes may lie beyond them...

Michele whispers: "It would be foolish to announce our presence at the front door until we have secured these side passages."

"I think you may be right", concurs Gustave, "unless our grinning elf maiden has some further insights", he adds quietly, with an eyebrow raised toward Anwyn, "I suggest you lead the way Olaf."

"Don't you hear them laughing?" enquires Anwyn of Padrig, and tilts her head as if to listen carefully. But for now the eerie echoes are are undetectable...

Padrig is a little concerned for Anwyn and will try to stay close to her in case she is affected by the voices.

"Let's check the cells and see if there are any guests here," Ulric says from behind Olaf. "If any guards are here surely they would have made themselves known by now."

Olaf nods in agreement whispering to the party behind him, "But be careful everyone...and quiet. We don't know who or what is here, but they are surely dangerous and unlikely to welcome our presence."

OOC: Did I miss the description of the room we're moving into? (edit) I did! [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]

"Remember the last time we were checking out cells in a dungeon?" Olaf says as he moves down the corridor to the first cell door, "Some of them had undead creatures in them that attacked us."

We will carefully move through the cells checking for any prisoners we can release, monsters to kill, and treasure to stea...er, recover. [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]
