Oh, and nicely done, Llama!

Caby says, "Lets leave the weapons and armour until we're done. Alright... let's see where the back of this cave leads, then we can decide a course of action, go up, go down, or go east."

Caby motion for Reeks to follow her with the lantern and heads past the rope to check out the back of the room.

Ducats replaces the arrows he shot, and follows Caby.

Traveling past the rope, you confirm that the 6 foot hole in the floor is indeed a spiral staircase heading downward. Your lantern light finally reaches the back dirt wall of the chamber, which is a total of 70 feet from the opening onto the ravine. All the walls and ceiling are dirt reinforced with heavy wooden timbers.

Mike, what kind of rolls would we need to do to climb the rope?

You're people of action, and it's secured at both ends, no rolls needed

"Does that mean you want to go down? Or did you have something else in mind?"

Ducats looks a little downtrodden.

"Not less you got a trick up your sleeve."

Let's wait to see what Llama has to say before we do anything...

But I'm leaning towards having Cash guard the rope and bark if the goblin tries to come down while we check out the stairs.

Jaral seems to recover his self-confidence. He fills his quiver and listens in on the conversation.

"Leaving Cash Money here to watch the rope is a good idea. As long as you think he'll come to us if the ugly thing gets down here with him. But then, he's a smart dog. Let me take a look at where that arrow hit ya, Ducats..."

ooc - taking advantage of poor d20 rolls while I can...

Okay. Should he wait at the rope itself, or the stairs?

Llama is rocking the heals if Mike allows it!

(Usually binding wounds has to be done right after the battle. He hadn't made the decision of whether or not to allow it at the time, so we couldn't do it then - maybe he'll allow it now.)

(I like the way you're doing that, by the way, Mike - rolling against WIS to see if it works. Better than just rolling 1D4 to see how much it does.)

Yeah, I think it's fine this time. I'll adjust the hp.

The spiral stair is completely dark. The stone steps are worn, and after about ten feet down they are also rather damp. The stair spirals clockwise downward, and even though you're not fighting you feel it impinging on the movement of your sword arm. The wall, or 'tube' really, down which you're descending is of solid stone blocks. Shadows cast by your lantern jump disturbingly as you go deeper and deeper, into dank murky depths.

Judging by the height of the steps, you're down some 40 feet so far, and it's still going. You've turned enough times you're not quite sure where east is now.

Caby pauses...

"It feels like this might go down to the bottom of the ravine or something. Maybe we should try to take out the leader before we go any further. I can shimmy up the rope first and see what it looks like up there..."

Caby turns around and motions for the party to head back up.

If all choose to do so, you arrive back up in the Burning Goblin room without incident. The oil has now burned out. The goblin is still burning a bit, peppering the chamber with a sound a bit more unwholesome than frying bacon.
