Re: Crackerjack Elite Vanguard of Trozan
"A door?" Aendyr asked with a look of puzzlement.
"I'm rather flummoxed on this door my own self. If they can build doors in a cave why didn't they put one near the entrance? You know, to keep animals, or monsters, or... us out. OK, could be they want chaps like you and I to fall in their fancy pit with all its spikes and trap door with a lever and everything, but the proots could slap a door in after the pit, right? A door's not going to keep the rat princess and her loyal subjects from coming and going. Those buggers can squeeze under damned near any door, so what on Corellon Larethian's green earth is that door for?"
"You know what it could be?"
It was Aendyr's strong belief that thinking out loud was the best kind of thinking, and once again it had yielded results.
"Maybe there's something what shares these caves with the kobolds and doesn't want proots poking their noses in all the time. That could be who built the door. I sure know if I had to sleep and eat next cave over from a bunch of manky little plonkers I'd put in about the thickest door I could find and lock it good."
"So there, I said it. I'll bet that door is locked, and don't go expecting the proots to have a key either. I will give a shot at kicking it in, though. I'm one aces door kicker, locked or not. If that goes sideways, I brought a hatchet."
Aendyr nodded several times. This door did not stand a chance. He was confident they were going to see what was past the door, one way or the other.
