Wounded and worried, I decide to continue on, keeping a sharp eye out for any more exploding ferrets.

Chapter One
After carefully walking 50 feet or so, you come to a wide chamber that has a smaller chamber off to your left.  The main chamber looks to curve to your right, disappearing in shadow.

I listen carefully to the chamber going ng off to the left. (Are there any details about the opening?)

The chamber to the left looks almost identical to the chamber that you just came out of.  You think that it would be more of a tunnel, however at 20 feet wide... a tunnel is hardly apt for the enormity of it.  The walls, as every wall has been to this point, are rough hewn stone.  The floor everywhere so far has been natural stone, which has been slowing your movement significantly.  There are no sounds coming from the left, and it sounds completely different than  the right chamber, or the one you just exited.  Kicking a stone, the noise quickly dissipates behind you and to your right, but to the left it seems to reverberated and echo.

Chapter One
Entering the chamber to your left, you find that it is simply a closed off chamber that has nothing.....

Behind you, you hear a small hissing pop.  As you turn around, you see a large temporal form vanish before you could identify anything other than a large shape.  Nothing else in the chamber seems to be of note, minus some pebbles along the side walls.

As you pickup a pebble, you quickly realize that it is not a stone.  The foul smell of feces fills your nostrils as you crush the waste pellet of some animal.

Moving back into the chamber you had just left, you now see the entrance to your right, and the chamber is curving from left to right to your left.

I follow the main chamber onwards, making sure to walk against the right most wall.

Chapter One
As you move through the larger chamber, there are times that your torchlight does an inadequate job at showing you the entire chamber.  Then there are other times that the far wall comes just into view.  Keeping the wall to your right, and moving away from the entrance, you soon come to another split in the chamber.   You are at a T-intersection of the Cavern and can either retreat, or chose left or right.

Looking both ways, I decide to head right, torch in front, sword in hand.

Turning to the right, you come to a dead end.  As you look around at the roughly round wall in front of you, you hear a familiar noise coming from the base of the wall to your right.

Chapter One
As you retreat down the hallway, you notice that you are being surrounded by three of the ferret creatures.  You manage to get away from two of them, but being lazy, your forget about the third.  There is the smell of sulfur, then a loud BANG to your right.  Small rocks hit your armor and bounce off harmlessly.


Attack: Ferret
Attack Roll: 3
Damage: 6

Defender: Balthazar
Armor Rating: 7

Attack Roll - Armor Rating = -4
No Damage due to no Armor defeating hit

Once you stumble back to the intersection, you look back to see that there are no signs of the other two ferrets.  Dust from the explosion still fills the chamber that you just retreated from, and seems to be keeping the other two at bay.

Chapter One
As you continue deeper into the caverns, you come to a widening of the tunnel after a few short feet.  Noises seem to  echo back to you from a greater distance in the spot that you are currently standing in compared to the last couple of larger areas.  Your torch light does not extend very far, which only adds to the eerieness .

I continue down the path, hugging the right wall while listening for any movement.
