Val examines the wire closely. "Some sort of... Mechanism. But to what end? And goblins? Really? I'm not sure goblins can make reliable use of silverware, much less something like this. So it must be those other flying things. But what are they?"

Myrrani follows the others in the tunnel, holding the glowing stone aloft to provide light. She shudders a bit when the passage becomes narrow, and halts at the crossroads. She checks down both passageways to see if the tunnel widens in any direction.

Finding a stick or item similar Aive will wrap the end with a rag then dose it with oil and light it, making for a makeshift torch and then will have to follow this wire back from where it came, (the direction we came)

Myranni stops at the crossroad in the tunnel looking either direction. The left passage goes another 15 feet and turns left (the wire goes down this tunnel). The passage on the right goes another 30 feet and turns left as well. The hole at the dead end is better lit now and there is definitely a ladder leading down there.

Aive (now with torch) follows the wire back from were he came. It leads to the entrance of the narrow tunnel, just before you had to squeeze to enter. It is attached to a knot, on a hidden rolled bundle of hide that is attached to the ceiling. Examining this closer it looks like this hide was originally a flap that acted as a sort of door. The wire looks newer and has been added on, being hidden the way it is down the tunnel. The whole crude mechanism looks like a pull wire. Someone at the other end pulls the wire and the flap drops. Making a door of hide at the narrow tunnel entrance.

Del listens at the hole 19 on listen. Aive will follow the string just to the corner so he can listen and using his mirror will peek around it. (he will do this at every corner he is at from now on) When and only if he see's no danger in the mirror he will carefully poke his head around it.
17 listen

Listening at the hole, Del hears nothing. You do see the hole goes down 20 feet into another chamber. The ladder is crudely made and worn with time. The hole is five by five feet wide.

I will need initiative rolls before we continue. Once Aive started down the left tunnel round one began.

Aive you hear what sounds like strange whisperings of some unknown language coming from around the bend.

I should have said 25 feet away from were Myranni is at the crossroad.

I will accept Del's torch being lit already.

I want to make clear, no one has disarmed the trap (wire). Disarming the trap at this point is not an option. It is an immediate action that triggered once Aive moved down the left tunnel.

Sir Valdalen Init 1,
backs up a few steps to be clear of the others for as wide swings as possible, draws her sword and readies her shield in the glittering torchlight as the sounds of danger approach, saying "I think we rang the doorbell. Or the dinnerbell. Or both. But look at how small the door is. That can't possibly be very much trouble..." Yet the Paladin backs up a few more steps anyway, asking for Heironeous' oversight for the group all the same.

The hide flap drops at the entrance to the narrow tunnel (15 feet from the crossroads).

Aive and Myranni, you see a dark figure step out, from the corner, at the end of the left tunnel. (15' away from the crossroads and 10' in front of Aive).

Aive throws his oil grenade at the figure. The oil breaks on the ceiling above the figure showering it in oil and fire. Del releases her magic missile and it flies past Aive, striking the target.

The human shaped figure finishes casting a spell. A crazy smile takes hold of the flaming figures face as Aive's torch starts to spout a black choking fog. The black smoke billows quickly out, filling the tunnels.

Del as you hustle forward to Myranni you're enveloped by the cloud.

Everyone must roll once, vrs. Will or fortitude, whichever is their stronger save (DC 15). Failure results in a -4 penalties to Strength and Dexterity (for the next 4 rounds), rolling over (success) means you are unaffected, in this way, by the smoke. Your vision is still impaired though, all sight, even darkvision, is ineffective in or through the cloud.
