It was a good point that Alfie made, and she nods her agreement. “Yeah… I think Alfie is right.”
She looks over the sarcophagi, “I wouldn’t be happy if you disturbed, what is to be, my final rest.”

Everyone Deciding not to disturb the resting place of the dead, you all move along the northern edge of the room towards the opening that lies in the middle of the wall. Getting closer to the opening, you can all see the wall has crumbled away to reveal a cavernous section. Seeing no threats within, you all move inwards and can see it opens up into a smallish space to the right, and a 5-foot-wide tunnel that leads to the left and out of sight as it curls around a corner towards the south. In the right portion of the cavern, you notice the smell of rotted flesh before laying eyes upon the partially rotted remains of male human. The parts of flesh that still cling to his skull are twisted and deformed in a silent scream.

"Urgh!" Xynon pinches his nose in the hopes of blocking out some of the smell, "Be thankful your nose isn't as keen as mine," He walks towards the narrow passage away from the smell

Mikey looks at Xynon with a half chuckle. "You wouldn't like being trapped in armour all day." Mikey looks at the corpses twisted face and lets out a deep exhale. "It would have been nice to ask them what happened but I am not prepared for that today. Best we be on our guard." Mikey will wait for anyone to check the corpse before continuing westward.

At the sight of the rotting body, flesh barely clinging on, Alfie feels his stomach start to turn. "Don't need, keen nose..." he says, fight back the uncontrollable urge to vomit.

At the scent, Aunna begins to blink wildly as she makes a face and then shuts down her sense of smell. She clogged up her nose and started breathing through her mouth. When she spoke, she sounded a bit nasally, “If I have that face while dying, you all need to promise to kill me quickly… I can’t even imagine what happened to him…”
Stepping towards the front of the group, she says, still quite nasally, "I'll take point. If it were a trap that got him, we don't want it to get us, too."

Everyone Wth the stench of rot permeating through everyone's nostrils, Alfie does his best to keep down any of his recently eaten food and manages to settle his stomach while moving towards the rocky passage that continues to the west, but at the last second, he blows chunks all across the cavern wall and onto the floor, adding to the permeating stench. With Alfie waving a hand for everyone to continue past him, Aunna takes the lead on the group and keeps her eyes peeled for traps while everyone follows down the passage. The passage continues to wind slightly before turning around on itself towards the south and then finally opening into a rocky chamber that looks to be empty.
Aunna,Xynon When inside the rocky cavern, you scan the room for anything of interest, but you just see bulging walls. You doca second take and notice that the bulges in the wall have a slightly wet look to them and before you can warn the others, you watch as three separate bulges move away from the wall at quick speed and appear to look like large worms.
Initiative:(Surprise round:Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Grick2,Grick1)Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Reggie,Mikey,Grick2,Alfie,Grick1 The large worms that move away from the wall rear their heads towards you all and the top section looks to almost peel away into a crossection of four, revealing a large beak underneath that chatters as their ambush has bore fruit.
Xynon, it is your turn.

Initiative:(Surprise round:Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Grick2,Grick1)Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Reggie,Mikey,Grick2,Alfie,Grick1 Glancing around and seeing all three gricks surrounding the group, Xynon decides to defend the weak point in the group by running towards the grick near the exit of the cavern, starting his assault with a jump kick into the grick. Xynon's foot slams directly into the centre of the creatures mass, slamming it back against the wall before releasing his fists into the head of the creature and nearly cracking the beak of the creature.
Aunna, it is your turn.

Initiative:(Surprise round:Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Grick2,Grick1)Xynon,Aunna,Grick3,Reggie,Mikey,Grick2,Alfie,Grick1 As soon as she notices the wall isn't a wall and is actually a monster, Aunna brings up her arrow and holds steady for a second before releasing. The arrow quickly finds its place in the hide of the creature as it let's put a piercing shriek of pain.
The grick that is being assaulted by Xynon attempts to whack out at him with its tentacles, but Xynon's use of his body in tandem with his throws means the tentacles completely miss his form.
The unharmed grick peels away from the wall and closes into Mikey who raises his shield as it approaches. The tentacles peel away from the head of the creature, exposing the sharp beak, and sling out at Mikey, but only manage to grasp onto the shield before Mikey pushes it away and pulls his shield in close to himself.
The grick Aunna wounded with her arrow starts to slither across the floor, its beak chittering in a show of intimidation, before making a swipe with its tentacles. Aunna ducks underneath the tentacles and manages to avoid a puncturing beak to her skin.
Xynon, it is your turn.

Ducking below the worms tentacles Xynon does a low sweeping kick following with a right hook before a second flurry of jabs.
Should the worm fall before the end of his assault Xynon will rush to Mikeys aids, sliding in with a low kick before following with a series a rising jabs.

Initiative:Xynon,Aunna,Reggie,Mikey,Grick2,Alfie,Grick1 Xynon returns a sweeping kick into the creature's bottom section which causes it to sink to the floor before having Xynon'claws raked down across its entire body. The claws rip and tear at the flesh easily, spewing forth all of the creatures insides as it wriggles in pain for a moment before stopping. Xynon then turns and runs straight towards Mikey's side and slamming his fists into the creatures head, once, twice. The creature acts dazed for a brief moment after Xynon's fists slam into its squishy flesh, it's tentacles drooping slightly from the pain and loss of cognition.
Aunna, it is your turn.

The grick got close and she sighed… she hated things being so close to her. Transferring her bow to her left hand, she drew her short sword and swung. Another attack came in the form of the pommel to the side of its face.

Initiative:Xynon,Aunna,Reggie,Mikey,Grick2,Alfie With the grick uncomfortably close to Aunna, she transfers her bow into one hand and draws her shprtsword before delivering a swift blow to the head of the creature where she think would work best. The creature has no time to react as the pommel is driven into its head with force and instantly drops the creature to the floor of the cavern.
Alfie, it is Reggie's turn.

Not happy with watching the walls come to life and currently being without a rock, Reggie gives out his best Behemoth inspired battle cry, dances around Aunna to make sure he is never in her way, and will think about attempting to defend both of them if the nasty big worms get to close.

With the worms killed Xynon glances around the cavern, "Well that was easier than those magic armour things," he grins towards Mikey before returning to cavern entrance where he stands on guard with his arms folded and toys with his cigar some more.
