"So Leon, What did ye get up to while we were meeting Ylsa? Ye be needing new armor from the forges mate? Or just sight seeing. Cause if ye need armor, Id be happy to lend ye some gold to get some mate. Ye saved me skin enough times."
“Thank you Elmo for the offer but I just bought this breastplate when we came into town. You are too kind. Dawnbringer and I went down to the forges just to explore them. Hemeth said it was a sight to behold and he was right. Hot as hell though in there.”
"Grem must truly be ye father fer ye to have taken to referring to yer weapon as if it were a person." Elmo pulls out his hand crossbow. "I think this thing has a bit of a mind of its own. Sounds crazy, but I think this object truly hates drow. The bloody weapon seems to almost aim itself if I be aiming at one of their dastardly lot. Is fighting with Dawnbringer a bit like that mate?"
Rowland gives a few soft claps at Elmo's performance otherwise he stands and listens to the conversation while staring off in the direction of Droki's tracks longing to continue their adventure.
“Elmo you have heard Dawnbringer speak to us before. She is a real person or entity living inside of the sword. Fighting with Dawnbringer is like fighting with a helping hand. She guides me and gives me her advise in situations.”
Leon thinks to himself for a second
”You say your weapon has a mind of its own. Do you mind if Dawnbringer and I look at it real quick? Just to make sure it is not a corrupted item like that damn box.”
"Weapons be deserving of names lad, since they be traveling with ye and protecting ye. Both of ye weapons be deserving of names and all of ye weapons be mighty indeed!"
The tracks that most likely belong to Droki the Derro take the adventurers into the thick fungi tunnel. A dense fungi forest blocks your way, its tallest specimens growing some five feet high. Even as you asses the best way to pass through it, a hissing sound starts to rise - like uncounted tiny voices whispering in tongues you don't understand.
Of the fungi that Rowland is familiar with, he sees barrelstalks, bluecaps, patches of fire lichen, nightlights, Nilhogg’s noses, ripplebark, timmasks, torchstalks, tongues of madness, trillimacs, bigwigs, and pygmyworts.

"Of course mate" Elmo hands over Duegar's Spite to Leon for inspection
Telepathically to Dawnbringer
“My light, Elmo stated this weapon had a mind of its own. Help me check investigate it for any corruption please.”

Leon eats the shrinking mushroom that was given to him by Rowland
Rowland relays the info he has on the various mushrooms. Advising them to avoid the torchstalk, timmasks, and tongues of madness.
"Do the rest of you hear that hissing?"
Leon shrinks down to a Small sized creature. The path ahead can be navigated now albeit it is Difficult terrain.
Telepathically to Dawnbringer
”Dawn help me look down through these mushrooms and let’s check for danger.”
Leon checks for danger or anyone looking at the group through the mushrooms with Dawnbringer’s help

Seeing Leon shrink and noticing that it appears easier to pass thru at that size, Rowland takes a shrinking shroom as well.
Rowland will then scout ahead roughly 50 ft searching for the source of the hissing.
