Alice tastes the blood while Cat smells for a trail and listens, and Yulya maintains her vigilance.

[Perception +5 Alchemy +2 1d20=14 visual, 20 Haring and scent, 19 taste]

If there's one thing Alice knows well is the taste of human blood, this is human blood.

The group moves south onto a southern platform with some very interesting items on display.

W6: Level 2: Open Quarters

On this platform, raised 15 feet above the level 2 floor, covering a huge pile of tailings, is a miners' barrack, where the skilled delvers working in Wave Echo Cave may have rested between shifts on this level. There are two bedrolls left but slightly less dusty spots where others might have been.

Tables with scrolls are as shown, fur lined sleep sacks lay under shelves along the Southeast and next to the other sacks on the Southwest wall. Tools, mining gear and of particular interest, prepared sticks of explosives, among other things are on the shelves and scraps of the remains of what was likely maps line the walls of this chamber, perhaps a dozen separate scraps are left, utterly without context and holding no useful information on first glance. To the East is a full cart of coal. A small elevator is just North of that.



Just to the south Cat hears faint creaking and splintering sounds; something is just south of your position.

Ashley sees Cat's attention and looks with her truesight and blindsight as she moves closer, she gives a hand sign, holding up three fingers, silently she points South where Cat heard the sound. Based on the sound your own feet are making on this old splintered wood, whatever these are, are heavier than your group.

Ashley whispers, "Three hunched figures squat near the South end, they look like they're eating something and gnawing on bones. They have pointy ears and they're big."

Alice examines the explosives with enthusiasm.
Ha, and here I thought we would not get to have fun with this stuff!
Alice pockets a stick and hands Cat another.

Alice can barely contain her excitement but manages to keep quiet
Ohh, looks like we already came across those ghoul things and they're having a nice Bandit meal! Let's not disturb them!

Cat, let's carefully approach, I will light the fuse of your explosive, then you'll throw it while I throw Yulya's glow rock as distraction! Then we hide on the east wall away from the blast wave! Be sure to cover your ears and open your mouth, this will be loud!

[There are 3 loose sticks, 4 bundles of 3 set to ignite simultaneously, and 8 bundled together for transport. Damage is additive, the radius increases 2.5ft for each additional one in a group up to three. Using more than three in a bundle is not well advised. If you've ever played Minecraft then you know why.]

Ashley whispers suddenly, "Or, we could strap the explosives to Mr. Bigglesworth!"

Cat signals Alice to be quiet and carefully drags her back to the explosives.
Nyaa I don't want to get caught in an explosion Nya and we don't know how old these sticks are Nya! Better take 3 to be sure Nya.

Cat looks over to Ashley/i]
Ashley Nyaa we need someone here Nya!



If Ashley summons Mr. Bigglesworth, Cat will strap 3 bundled sticks to his back with Alice's string.

Ashley whispers back, "He could but summoning him is still noisy, they'll hear us for sure."

She ponders, "I gotta learn silent casting, definitely before we face off against the dragon.

Alice's mood swings between excitement and disappointment.
But-but I want an exploding kitty! It's the best idea you ever had!

Alice looks to Yulya for a decision.

"We could move back to the elevator, the mine might mask the sound of the summon."

Yulya is not exactly happy but signals everyone to retreat to the elevator.
Uh Ashley your summons do not feel pain right? I mean they were killed countless times but sending them to their demise like this is...
Yet our safety has priority and I do not want Cat to get injured by the explosion. So Ashley if you would summon Mr. Bigglesworth please?

Yulya provides her blanket for extra noise reduction
