    The Banduin warrior looks down the hall and sees the group of twelve in total and roars three words back into the East room.

    The second guard comes out.

    "What...purpose of come?" the second guard says.

    'The elf... he made me... something at the top!'

    Aelrindel gets suspicious.

    'Thonrat! See what that idiot is mewling about now!'

    Thonrat wanders over to investigate, hand on his club.

    Ristan looks from Artur to his master and back.
    "Not me, good sir spaghettiarms, the other elf. By the way, have you seen a pig here abputs and are you emotionally attached to it in any way?"
    The guards just look at each other confused.

    "Pig?" the first one says.

    "What am PURPOSE!!!" the second one asks again gritting its teeth.

    Ristan rushes forward, swinging his staff above his and knocks the club right out of the hand of the first guardian. Everybody rushes forward with Pip's longsword driving its way through the other Guardian's stomach.

    As the disarmed guardian cries at his life mate's death the others brutally beat and stab him to death.

    Aelrindel cuffs Artur across the face.

    'You! Know your place cur! Thonrat, take the lead. This treacherous welp would be best left to die. But instead...'

    He gestures to Thondar.

    'Bind him. We can make an offering of him like he would have us.'

    OOC: My unclear wording above, he was the one beaten to death. The one who kept his weapon was killed in one hit by Pip

    Thondar binds him easily enough.

    Pip looks down at his hands.
    "I've never killed a man before..." He bleats
    ."still haven't, lad." Farris booms, clapping him round the shoulders. "4 arms, piggy feet, bad posture - they're not men. But I'll wager we'll make one of you yet!"
    He searches the bodies

    While his brother is binding Artur, Thonrat inspects the room with the guardians carefully.

    Farris finds nothing on them save a vial containing a sweet smelling red juice.

    Nothing too incredible aside from what they noticed earlier. From here Thonrat can smell the powerful aroma of the sapphires embedded in the table.

    Thonrat grunts at Thondar, who looks up and scuttles over.

    Together they go through a series of low pitched grunts, with Thonrat gesturing to the table.

    Thondar goes back and picks up Artur and throws him onto the table.

    The table cracks releasing the sapphires. The dwarven brothers are almost stunned by the purity of their aroma and taste.

    Thondar kicks a sapphire into Artur's bound hand.

    If nothing happens, he and Thonrat start gathering them as Aelrindel rubs his hands with glee.

    Farris passes the juice to Quentanaa.
    "**** off, roundears! You drink it!"
    She uncorks it and sniffs it all the same.
    Pip looks for exits and throwing weapons.
    Ristan looks around the walls for secret doors, knocking for hollowness and looking for unnatural seams or joins in any wood or stone

    Zack takes a keen note on what the drawves recovered and pocketed.

    Nothing happens to Artur and the gems are gathered up fast.

    Thonrat picks up Artur by his rags and throws him back into the centre of the room. He and Thondar join the other newcomers in a thorough search of the room.

    Ristan's elven listen to the air for subtle drafts and his fingers trace along the walls, their sense of touch several times more sensitive than a man's. However he finds nothing.

    Aelrindel looks at Zack.

    'Don't get any ideas. Those sapphires will fetch me a good price. Unless.... for some assistance in this place - you wish to share them?'

    The guardroom lies on the East of the passage out of the original entry room. There is a room to the West, covered with a blue energy field.

    The passage itself then continues North.

    There is nothing more to be found in the Guard room or the original entry room.

    She can't place it exactly, but Quentanaa can recognise local forest berries well enough to know this is a simple pick-me-up drink.

    Dragging Artur by the end of rope, Thondar leaves the room and joins Aelrindel. Thonrat takes the lead and heads North, checking for dangers and using his infravision to scout ahead.

    The elf sniffs.

    'What I find here is mine own, apart from what they have sent me to collect. They don't need to know about the other treasures. They never need to know, am I right?'

    "What we find here, snotser!" Farris grunts. "Unless you want to take on the next fight by yourself?"
