Skirmish In the Iron-Heart caverns

[mighty]

(Sorry, hectic week. Varis also will be willing to take Omar's suggestion to find the vault in hopes of finding items that may help with the break out)

[Maddt Spladdt]

(Can I assume that the legend of this lost vault is well-known among the enslaved dwarves? Or do I need to make a check?)

[(George) 3.5./ ZEM ( 4.0)]

No roll needed : (It was not well known that a hidden vault was being made that was air tight and only those working on it knew of it. Yet resources of supplies kept going missing but was excused by the Thane and the officers so arguments about it dropped.

So many began wispering about it up til right before the invation that there were two or more secret missions going on.

So one mission was & part of your task: was to get the dwarfs into the hidden tunnals and out.

The Red Army attacked before the majority got out yet some still did.

When the treasury was opened by the Red Army. They complained that the Keep vault was mostly empty. Yet none of you ever saw it leave.
You would know that the dwarfs would have had to stash it someplace safe and given the wispers of a second mission, stands to reason that its quite possible there was a second hidden vault.

You would know it would be well warded/gaurded with many traps and the like to make sure the Red Army could not get it. )

so you have enough info to put two and two together so no roll needed.

what Omar is talking about is proof of something you were not quite sure til now.)

[mighty]

Varis stands up, dusting himself off, before picking up his staff. He walks over and glances down the paths they had left behind, ensuring nothing was lying in wait before turning back to the others.

"So we find this vault, then bust the prisoners out? Given my past experiences, I suppose we should be on the look out for plenty of traps and well hidden doors. I'm ready to head out if you all are."

[kaia]

"well lets go find this vault and safe the others. If needed we can either pretend our deaths and collapse tunnel but we have a little time"... Arianna looks at the group and waits for everyone

[kaia]

" I would try and see if we can get people out before we collapse the tunnel and maybe get some more gear and health potions so that if i go down we have more ways to keep each other alive" Arianna says while she waits

[at]

Callo volunteers, "we could perhaps smuggle one or two back into the prison unseen and unheard, but not more out again past the guards without notice."

[kaia]

Arianna looks to the group "so lets put it to vote... Our options are a cave in and work unseen either on the outside or in the tunnels. Go find the vault and work from there, or my group sneaks back in and work on getting people ready to break out and the other group gets things worked on the outside to help get people out quickly"

[namklim]

Fiseath votes for the second: "I think we should do the second. This provides us with another route out of the prison if needed, and the others should be prepared before we start a break, else some may be too slow in reacting and delay us in escaping."

[messiahmoose]

Wind, Arianna’s voice: “Go find the vault and work from there,” and then in Fiseath’s: “This provides us with another route out of the prison if needed.”

[Maddt Spladdt]

"If you really think you have a shot at finding the Vault," Kizthe says after much internal discussion, "then I'll agree that there must be something worth our while in there, and I'm willing to put off the breakout until after we've strengthened our hand with whatever we may find. But if we are in fact delaying the breakout, I'm more committed than ever to faking our deaths first."

[harknail]

Katril points out that even if they go back, they won't have contact with the other prisoners since this group is kept secluded from the other prisoners. Also she'll point out that there was another possible exit that they were going to investigate, though he might just be another path to the same exit.

Also, there are guards waiting for them to come back, so even sneaking in will be difficult.

Callo remains neutral on the vote - these prisoners were not her companions, it didn't seem right for her to choose a path here.

[kaia]

"lets go to the vault and if we run out of time we create a cave in and leave" Arianna conveys to the group

[(George) 3.5./ ZEM ( 4.0)]

" I too agree we should try to find and get into the vault a soon as possible. Well its good to see we now have a group consensus of a destination. It may not be easy to find the vault but lucky our friend Al did tell us enough to get us started. Along with he also gave us a map to help us on our journey.

Omar takes out the map.

Perhaps fresh sets of eyes to help decipher the maps clues will help us locate what we seek."

If anyone wishes to look for clues on the map please make an Investigation skill roll.

[harknail]

Katril looks at the map to see if she can recognize the tunnels that she and the others have already explored.

Investigation: e7avZxERp_1-20+1 =2

Katril is absolutely clueless as to how to interpret the map.1-20

[Maddt Spladdt]

Investigation u4DdVe0xp_1-20 + 3 = 121-20

Callo also looks over the map, thinking a little magical guidance might help right about now.

ZZltO9rZp_1-20p_1-4+1 = 201-20�1-4
