In reply to Molag Anders (msg # 560):

Christine moves to one of the doors to check it out. She summons a fireball before getting Chris to open it.

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 561):

Chris opens the door, which reveals a modest sized corridor with half a dozen open doors to the sides.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 562):

"Lets head down here slowly to check it out..."

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 563):

The doorways open to small rooms with beds and stone tables.
 They appear to be in a state of disarray.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 564):

"Lets finish searching before clearing out the valuables."

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 565):

All of the small rooms are empty of trolls.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 566):

"Ok, let's get what can be sold, and move out. Unless there are more rooms we have missed?"

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 567):

"There was one other over that way." Molag poins a ways down toward the other side of the main area where gates are being assembled.

In reply to Molag Anders (msg # 568):

"Right. Then to clean it out next."

She directs Chris and requests Haskell, Daneos and Molag to accompany her to clear the last room or rooms.

In reply to Szuzana (msg # 570):

"My dear, you have been so quiet I thought you were with Voorland. You are welcome to come too, though hopefully it will only be to assist in carrying off loot.."

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 571):

Szuzana glances back toward the smith and Pytor.
 "I have been. We fought off a few archers until they
retreated, killing off about half a dozen and wounding more."

In reply to Szuzana (msg # 572):

"I presume we dealt with the rest?"

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 573):

"Ever since you fought that last batch beside us, the place has gone quiet."

In reply to Szuzana (msg # 574):

"Good. Lets make sure, then clear out with the loot."

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 575):

Molag and Haskell  toss the rooms, and return with a number of items; a small wooden chest filled with a chessboard and carved stone figurines, an articulated  stone doll of a troll, couple of pewter vessels and goblets, a few pouches of coin, three knives and a stone puzzle box.

In reply to Molag Anders (msg # 576):

Christine just has to try the stone puzzle box...

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 577):

An excellent example of trollish stonework, it rattles
faintly when you shake it, and seems to have a number of sliding parts to it. As you start to fiddle, Molag points over toward that last  door...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 578):

"Ah, yes. Lets finish this..."

She puts it away and creates a fireball growing it to 3d before giving Chris a nod.

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 579):

Unable to attempt a dodge without specific instruction, Chris is slammed in the midsection by
 a scything blade that swings out as he yanks the door open. Naturally enough, his armor
absorbs the blow.
  Within, the room is cluttered; tools are scattered across a workbench, partially constructed
 devices are stacked on the floor. the cot is a mess of blankets.

In reply to Chris (msg # 580):

Christine checks Chris, then asks if anyone can disable the blade permanently, before searching this room.

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 581):

Molag cuts a line and jams a spring, leaving the blade dangling.

In reply to Molag Anders (msg # 582):

"Lets get what is worth taking, and check for anything not explored...Chris, please check for traps."

I look at where Chris was struck, see that he's unharmed, and give him a gentle nod and a smile as I go to help the others carry back our treasures.

In reply to Dareos Madrigar (msg # 584):

Molag and Haskell set about ransacking the place.
