Velanya and Colwyn both study the hole, blades at the ready. Sadly the pit is too dark for them to see much...
Eilieen leads Arkan away, and finally comes to a spot that she feels would be safe and comfortable. He is definitely looking better, seeming stronger, more capable of supporting his own weight, and steadier on his feet.
Hacking at the scaly hand, Aarnr is rewarded with a fountain of dark blood, a scream of pain, and a loud thump as the owner of the now-severed extremity falls back into the depths... closely followed by the two remaining badgers, amid a shower of dirt, stones, and splintered wood.
The thuds as the badgers land below are soon followed by screeches and hisses of pain and anger...
The edges of the hole, meanwhile, collapse. Light floods into the widening opening. There is a chamber below, crudely dug out below the tree roots. The floor of loose earth is about ten feet below ground level.
The light is dim down there, but is enough to reveal a half dozen of the reptile creatures using primitive clubs and spears, as well as their bare hands, to fight the badgers, which are starting to look weary.
At the edge of the lighted area, a human child can be seen, curled into a ball, with her hands over her eyes.
