More Bloody Tunnels

[calair.livejournal.com]

What is it with tunnels? Why must every square inch of every city on this continent be undermined by sewers, passages, diggings, delvings, dwarf-holes and caverns?

It started off so well, too. The priests of Silverlight told us that they had sensed an evil moving towards the city from the north (snake-men encampment?) but as it neared, it had become weaker and then vanished. Since the prisoners had told us nothing about the location of their baggage train before the temple's interrogators YET AGAIN managed to run out of prisoners, we thought this might merit investigation, but Cheleth was exhausted so we spent an idle morning while he rested.

CHELETH: "You die less for cash!"

For some reason, Maria is convinced that our little ensemble needs a name. She wants it to be "Smiters Incorporated", which the rest of us think rather silly, especially since we are not incorporated. Someone (Cheleth?) very sensibly suggested that if we were to go in that direction, "limited liability" would be a valuable inclusion.
