Shale walkes with the group taking Lembic's side to double the usefulness of our shields. His eyes darting back and forth. "You ever feel like the fifth wheel of this troup. Every time something happens we get left behind without even an order to watch the others. God, I need a promotion."

Let us make quick work of these ratfolk, before Dallid shows up and feels compelled to undo our efforts. Perhaps one of us should not go in the cellar, or we should leave some sign, in order to inform the others when they arrive where we are if this should take longer than we suspect. Midnight, would you be willing to do this?

*Corbyn stays near the back with DonMayo, ready to deal with any nasty rodent wounds.*

As you make your way down the tunnel you see six sets of glowing eyes in the darkness ahead. Kels fires off an arrow and the silence is pierced by a squeal. The glowing eyes disappear into the darkness in a flurry of scuttles.

As the group advances another few feet, the torch light falls upon the the carcass of a rat that must have stood atleast 18" at the shoulder. Now it is pinned to the ground with an arrow through it's skull.

*Kels gets another arrow set, while he is doing this Kidwynn winks at him*

Nice shot luv.

Rodents of unusual size? And I didn't believe in them! Ok folks, I'll keep covering your rear... just make sure those lil buggers don't stampede us, k?

"Lets get this over with, I don't think this will be much of a challenge."

*Sethreal begins back down the tunnel.*

This is wasting time. We shouldn't be here. Granted now that we've killed one, we must finish the job or incur whatever rat they might have *chuckles at his own bad pun*

*Seth grins at the joke.*

"I just figured we would still be up there talking about it if I didn;t do something."

Yeah, well, I wasn't really paying attention so I guess this is what I get. I wasn't particularly worried about being attacked by a few giant rats. I'm sure we'll see tougher foes down the road.

"I sure hope so, I didn't come along to protect poeple from a couple of rats."

*Arthos quikly carves and arrow poiting to the INN on a couple trees so the rest of the party knows where we went to.

When light is request Arthos cast a light spell and charges a magic ball of engery. When the rats come in range he lets the energy fly. As more rats come out Arthos taunts a rat or two luring them close enough for Ka and the rest of the group to kill them. As the group travels furthure down the tunnel, Arthos will detect for magic (sense magic) and see if there is any hidden passages (spot). All the time Arthos stays quiet and does any thing asked of him*

A fifth wheel? Not so much, I definitely feel needed but that is mostly because I usually don't believe that they will return when they go running off like this. It doesn't seem the sane plan. And orders? Bah. However, since they took a majority of the party with them this time ....

*trails off. stops walking.

Did you see Ug run off with them? I don't remember whether he did or not and at the moment its only you, Dallid and I that I'm counting.

*grimaces with the thought of all the trouble that came about last time he was walking in the woods in a party and Ug disappeared.

*In the cave Kidwynn sticks next to Kels kiling stuff if it comes along. She will taunt a few of the rats as well for Sethreal, Ka, and the party to decimate. If he has room, Kels will be launching arrows at the rats if possible. If not, he will be in melee assiting with the carving up of the rats.*

*Once the task is completed Kidwynn leads everyone back to the other group and then after a few moments, will return back to scouting. Kels will be with the party, arrow ready to go in case something decides to jump out at the main group.*

Ka stands in front and acts as a bovine meat shield, letting the others do the killing. Unless of course, these rats are particularly adept at getting through his defenses, then he begins wholesale slaughter.
