Giving the ore cart a long lookover, the plainsman glances at Duras and nods his head toward the contraption. "Part of the riddle the dwarf spoke, I suppose..."

Not seeing how the cart can help them at present, Horek kneels to look for tracks in the dust that coats the floor of the tunnel. "Keep an eye out while I search, Duras of Rao. I would not like to be caught unawares in this position."

If tracks are found by himself or any of the other rangers, Horek will motion them forward to the intersection where the tracks lead east and try to determine in which directions any such tracks lead.

Wilderness Lore skill: +4


OOC: How about this for marching order...


10' wide passage (two abreast):
Horek.........Duras
Steven........Ian
Kerry..........Acea
Nydilind......Elescene
.........Accolon


5' wide passage (one abreast):
Duras
Horek
Steven
Ian
Kerry
Acea
Nydilind
Elescene
Accolon

Alternatively, Elescene the rogue can travel slightly ahead of the party and Accolon would move up to take her place. Any other thoughts or ideas?

Horek Varshot
Deep bronze skin and the red body paint that decorates the face of this large man combine to mark him as one of true Flannish origin. The plainsman carries a sturdy longbow and a huge sword is strapped tightly to his back. Studded leather armor peeks out from beneath a cloak made from the hide of a large black bear and a necklace decorated with huge claws completes the picture of this fearsome barbarian. The scowl upon his face along with hard, piercing eyes warn you that disturbing this quiet man might be considered foolhardy unless there is good reason.
