Mormesk laughs heartily, "What a troop you have! I'll leave it to you then, and remember to report back to me in case you survive, otherwise on the new moon I will come for you."

"Yeah yeah, just have the coins ready, we'll return his head intact" Ashley leers at Alice.

In a flash, likely teleportation, he's gone.

Not deeming it safe enough to rest here, you waste no time and make your way toward the steps, leaving the elevator as is. The staircase follows down hundreds of feet and soon becomes long ancient ladders. Tunnels extend in every direction, there was extensive excavations here but not like the others, these are chasing only the highest quality ores and much medium yield ores are left. Ashley insists every once in a while to look over the scraps in hopes to find some samples.

With the help of her newfound boost in wisdom, Ashley sorts through countless ores to find enough to satisfy the requirement, luckily she finds some particularly fine specimens for her collection containing Cooperite and Argentite.





"I don't know how I know, but I know, this is platinum and silver. He better give me something for the platinum becasue he didn't specifically ask for that. I just need gold and mythril now. He did say anything else of interest."     



You've found a suitable landing to rest, the dust indicates there hasn't been as much as a bug here for possibly hundreds of years, no foot prints or other tracks indicate no one survived the battle with Mormesk. You don't know how much further down the ladders and stairs lead but they're large and sturdy, so they must lead to something.

[Let me know what you want to do and how long you want to rest. Presume you took the tent with you.]
