With some of my wounds healed I walk as quickly as I can to the exit; knowing I still need healing for my arrow wounds. I look at Rachel, "Yes, a bath does sound wonderful, need a healing first though" I give her smile. "I also need to get a good night's rest, as I know we all do."
I pause for a bit and close my eyes outside of the tunnel entry, relieved beyond measure that I am not carrying a body out of there this time around.
In response to Grant's query, I'll think about it before saying, "We might need guidance on that. Nondetection is the only thing within reach I can think of, but it only applies to a single target. I would have to make a scroll for each one coming, which I don't think we have the funds for, and even then it is not guaranteed to work."
"Besides, it is entirely probable that they're tracking us via more mundane means. Remember that they can see in the dark, while we are traipsing around in there with lit beacons announcing our presence."
"... Dammit, we should have taken the sleeping hobs captive. They could've told us about the remaining strength of their group. Not to mention what they heck they're doing in this place."
As you exit the tunnels and head towards the "Elevators" You will see the big red haired man that is normally guarding the lord standing at the top watching your return. He is dressed in just a pair of pants and shirt. He does have a long sword strapped to his waist. He seems to be looking towards Vickie. Once she is up he wraps her in a bear hug.
Getting back to the stronghold is easy and you do not see any signs of any more hostiles.
A bit annoyed that the elf teens had managed to get ahead of me a bit, how to make a note to always move forward when they do. Keep a few paces next to them as I help in battle.
Still I'm thankful that we managed to make it out, and was will surprised yet amused to see Vickie recieve a bear hug on them exiting. Looking to Jason, I will ask, "So what should we do now, report to Lord Douglas before getting some rest?"
I will also check on the elf teen who had been hurt.

Upon seeing the red headed guard, Kelvin, I grin at him. There is a sparkle in my eyes when I say "Hello love". When he takes me into his arms and hugs me; I grimace a bit from my wounds but happy to see him as I lean against him for support. Together we head to the stronghold along with the rest of the group.
Kelvin takes Vickie straight to the healers to get her all patched up. While telling her that she should try not to attract so many arrows as she is not a pincushion.
If you plan on reporting to the lord he can be found in the main dining chamber talking with the mage in the red robe and one in a black robe.
I follow Kelvin and Vickie to the healers, still hobbling from the injuries and eager to feel the restorative magics thrum through my body and repair the painful damage. I then head into the hall and join the rest of the group when they report in.
Out of Character: : XP gain on this one?
