Exploring the Dwarven Ruins

Upper Level of Ruins

Lower Level of Ruins

Leaving behind the body of Sir Loin, the party decided to explore the shrine area.  They moved through a door on the north wall into a small after you antechamber with benches on the sides of the room and cubbyholes on the northern wall.  The cubbyholes had cleric robes and other mundane items for rituals, otherwise the room was absent of anything significant.  The only door out of the room led further north, into a set of hallways.

The first door on the right was blocked off with bars and heavy wooden beams but directly behind them to the west a narrow hallway led to a 35X35 read this distillery room with barrels of Dwarven ale and whiskey stacked up along the western wall.  Behind that wall, a set of stairs led up to a loft landing with steps down several dozen feet before it turned.  The group cautiously made their way down the stairs to a lower level room with a door to the south.  More significantly, a text or email me handful of skeletal bodies lay dead, apparently trying to escape the room, although the door was locked.  They searched the body, turning up a small amount of gold, and, undeterred, picked the lock on the door.

A wide hallway lay east to west with a door at either end.  They chose to head West into an oddly shaped room with several exits.   Murder holes, etched into the northeastern portion of the room.  A southern door, when opened, revealed a room filled with spider webs, the word complete with a webbed body and what appeared to be a large hole in the ceiling.  The room also had two exits (one to the south and one to the west).  Rather than confront the threat, the group backtracked to the distillery and lugged a barrel of whiskey to the room, lit a rag and used it as a bomb crank in the spider room.  A thundering and add explosion rocked the room, nearly ripping the door off the hinges.  When torn off, the room was burnt out, although no spider carcass was present.  The doors to the two potions of south and west were likewise severely damaged and a careful inspection of the hole seemed to indicate it went up and vitality to the west.  They returned to the oddly shaped room and looked in a to your sheet small closet space and into a room that held several skeletal warriors, but the group closed the door quickly and looked into another room.

This room was a large chamber with several dozen well armed skeletons and dread warriors.  From here, Soveliss, Wyndham and Dreidel the Dragoon stood their ground and attacked the warriors, destroying the creatures.
