Once the children are taken care of, and when getting to the forked path I ask, "Which direction was it that we went?" Given how they had stopped here, it appeared a moment of thought was needed to decide.
You head back to the two doors where the children were found and removed from their chains. You do not see or hear anything unusual while heading to this spot. You continue down the corridor. 40 feet down the corridor you once again see two doors on the left and right across from each other. 30 feet beyond them the corridor ends in a door. Like before these doors are locked with a handle and hinges on the outside.
"I don't know whether I want to find the living or the dead in here."
I move to the doors, carefully inspecting for traps then trying to open.
Out of Character: Really should have picked up masterwork picks, could have been doing all these rolls with 4 more added to the mod.
