His heart racing with anticipation, Judoc stuffs his necklace under his leather jerkin, snuffing out the meager light to see by. Again, the room is plunged into darkness but for the subtle orange glow which reflects off the damp walls here and there.
Checking to make sure there are not others lurking around separate corners, Judoc firsts tests the right corridor, creeping forward several steps to try and see and hear anything that might note of more people ahead. But after several moments, he gives up on the endeavor, hearing only the continued echoing murmur that seems to come from the same direction as the torchlight.
His hand fixed to the wall, Judoc starts walking, slowly and in near total darkness, doing his utmost to make himself unseeable and silent.
Step at a time, Judoc walks towards the light. Five steps, ten. At one point Judoc feels the curvature of the wall swing away from him, off to some other passage, though he knows the way on is straight ahead... He takes his hand off the wall, his heart thrumming with his fears that he may stumble on some unseen obstacle in the inky black... though after a few silent steps he has made his way to the other side of the hall.
Judoc peers from the shadows for the briefest of moments, and he glimpses five men and a goblin... Four of them dressed in little more than loincloths, standing alert, one of them holding a torch. The other two, the man and the goblin, sit against the cave wall, the man holding his wrist, the goblin, wearing the same colorful tabard, sitting in the mud next to him, looking his way.
The last thing that Judoc notices before he ducks himself behind the nearby wall is the shaft of moonlight that is cast down from some glimmer high in the room...
[Language unknown: "Ore urceut trahatsom an er tamoom hatwe?"] The voice is gravelly and low... inhuman, much like Grobbik's voice had been.
He's answered by another voice, this one throaty and slow.

[Language unknown: "Noil."] The first voice answers back.

"I do not understand." A third voice says in low tones, speaking in Arabic.
"Where are they taking us?"
"No need to fear." The first, gravely voice answers back, speaking in Arabic this time.
"We're not enemies... Just men who are disgusted at Megalan slave laws... And Taveon in particular."
"What is Taveon?" Says another halting voice in Arabic.
"Never mind." Says the first voice again after a moment of pause, continuing in Arabic.
"Lets just say we can't promise to take you back home, but we'll help you find work to raise money to get back on your own. You're free. As soon as we get you out of here anyway."
[Language unknown: "E haof our redearnde ichai on pa atetioear iverutdin! Eence ivcami wer ivnane p a orereaiou constisansta?"] The second voice says.
