The chaotic battle in cramped quarters is not the best place to be swinging a two-handed sword. Black Angus tries to stab at one of the surviving goblins, but has to turn his blade away at the last second to avoid impaling Atak by mistake.

10:14, Today: Black Angus rolled 7,6 using 1d20+1,1d10+1.  attack goblin again.

Bob's head swivels unnaturally, at least for someone with bones.  "I is play dead.  Goblins not comes out?" he asks the elf, rising to his feet.

Pat says to Bob "For goodness sake!"<Blue> He looks over at the house.  <Blue>"They're roughhousing in there, I think your ruse gave your friends the advantage though." Ending his remark with putting on an unsure smile.

"We'd better go help." with that he turns and runs back toward the house readying his bow again.

Darien smashes the goblin's head in that hit him in the face, indeed paying for it.

Atak does in the beaten up goblin from behind, only that advantage allowing his strike to land.

Bob and Pat arrive at the window and take in the carnage, a bloodier mess of a kitchen you've never seen before.

Atak looks at his companions, noticing that the wounds taken during the fight are not serious. He looks around the room for evidence of what the goblins might have been fighting about or anything obviously valuable.

"Angus, there is an upstairs. Please take the Doctor and search it for enemies or prisoners. Veryn, would you come in and loot the bodies?" he asks. "Let's give this place a good tossing." Atak begins searching the main floor, including a search for a trap door in the floor or other access to a cellar or similar basement area.

Black Angus shrugs. "Sure thing. Follow me, Doc."

Angus heads for the stairs and moves up cautiously, sure some goblins are going to try and shank him when he gets to the top, if they don't drop a brick on his head first.

There doesn't seem to be anything worth fighting over in here - old rusty pots and pans,  utensils and plates, but they were making stew in the large cauldron, smells like pork stew.

Upstairs Black Angus finds no goblins, but it looks like they've thoroughly tossed the place already, old threadbare clothes and torn up straw matresses are piled on the center of the  floors broken furniture just up against the walls.

Atak remembers a storm door outside against the house that must lead down to a basement.

Veryn turns up some gold on the goblins but not much, only 30 total, and the spears and javelins.

Atak suggests the group check out the storm cellar. "Seems unlikely to be any goblins down there, but let us be careful nonetheless," he asks of his companions.

Angus reports as he comes back down the stairs. "Nothin' left up there. The storm cellar sounds like a good place to check. And there's something in the barn, too, right?"

"There's always something in the cellar..."

He clicks the wheel on his wrench to lengthen the claw.

The door is locked and seems to be thicker and more sturdy than the doors on the house, though still neglected.

"I can think of only three way to proceed," Atak says. "We can search the goblins again for a key, and the house as well; we can hack through the doors or force the lock; or we can hook a chain up to Bob's mule and have him help us pull the doors open."

He looks at the house, then the barn. "If the goblins had the key they would not have needed to search the house as they did. But, being goblins, they may have missed something. Pat and Veryn, please re-search the bodies and the house.

"If there is a chain or pry bar to use it will be in the barn. I think I know how to deal with the creature there."
Atak waits for the others to decide their actions before going to the barn.

Bob reaches around and digs through his backpack.  "I has those." he says, pulling out a crowbar and a hammer and offers them to Atak.

Atak laughs aloud when Bob produces the tools. "Excellent!" he cries. He waves them over to Black Angus. "Best of luck. You're the man on this job, for certain."

Angus takes the tools from Bob with a grin. "You're a good man, Bob! Let's bust open those doors, what do you say?"


He places the tip of the crowbar just above the latch and hammers the end until the tip sinks into the gap. Then he applies his strength downward on the crowbar to force the door open.

06:46, Today: Black Angus rolled 6 using 1d6+1.  Str check to open door.

"Well, well," Atak says, directed into the cellar.

A moment later he says, "Nothing is moving down there. It seems sure the goblins didn't make it down here, so any treasure this poor family had may be there, hidden. Let's get a light and head down. Do we have a lantern, or a candle from the house?" he says, looking at the cellar area to see if any lighting exists.
