Ankita looks at Randall as he asks his questions, "Good questions. I'm not sure? Though maybe it makes sense to take these fellas out? I don't think they'll help us in any regard and we know they are bad? Shrek, Olaerys, Melchor what are your thoughts?"
Whispering, Shrek adds “Me thinks we already seen every people in here is bad juju. Shrek like to stay hidden if possible, but if we can’t, me says we take ‘em out, silently.”

Randall taps his nose. "Got it."
Randall equips his shield and spear. Once they have drip-dried and reached the door Jolly passed through, he will attempt to open it as quietly as possible and peek through.

Randall opens the door a crack with a bit of a creak, looking and listening for any sign of danger. He has a huge sense of foreboding, as if a giant creature is right behind him lurking. A foul smell creeps into his nose, smelling like death.
It takes a moment before he realizes it is just Shrek looking over his shoulder.
You all see a spiral staircase leading up, drips of water on it. There is also some blood in a few places, as if something recently wounded came or was dragged this way
The only path is up? Then up it is. Randall pushes through the door and begins to make his way up the stairs, quietly motioning for the others to follow.

As you ascend the stairs you hear what sounds like an animal savagely eating something. About half way up Ankita steps on a an uneven floor board and there is a fairly audible 'creakkk'
At the sound of the 'creakkkkkk', Randall pauses in his ascent. He waits on the steps, spear cocked back, waiting to see if the noise has attracted any attention....

Shrek looks down to confirm whether or not the growling is his stomach. Shrugging, he continues his way up the stairs, ready to defend his friends from any oncoming attackers, man or beast.
Shrek just turns and gives his teammates a complete and utterly blank face of confusion, not understanding a damn thing that the voice they just heard, said. Hunt? What hunt? Hopefully Shrek’s friends understand more than he, and can figure out what to do next. He looks to Randall, hoping for some guidance.
Olaerys pipes up, trying his best to mimic the voice of the leader of the roving band they attacked, before he beheaded him. “We came back to check in, ran into those ******** we were hunting for earlier, handled them but good! We’ll be up in a bit, I’m going to find a bite to eat. We’ll catch up with Shatterkeel in a few.” He gives a hand sign to everyone to “hold.” He waiis to hear the response from above.

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
“Well, they did cut a couple of us down. Reash, where the **** are you? Get your ass up here and give me some help, dammit! Hold on, boss. Hey, on second thought, come down here a minute. You’ve got to see this. You’ll never believe what they had on them! This chest is heavy! Come on down and have a look!” Olaerys motions everyone down quickly and descends back down the ladder, motioning for everyone to hide as best as they can, pulling out two javelins and readying an action to hurl them once he sees the buttocks of the leader descending the ladder, hoping to knock him off.

Big oaf Shrek is right behind Randall, and also takes a peek through the crack in the door that Randall just made:

Olaerys stands right beside Shrek, peeking through the door Scooby Doo style, ready to burst in and act if needed.

Ankita glares at Olaerys as he whispers, then puts her finger to her mouth and says shhhh... then follows Shrek up the stairs.
A growly yell splits the air. "REASH. You know not to bother me during the hunt. Why do you return already? Shatterkeel needs informed."
Shrek just turns and gives his teammates a complete and utterly blank face of confusion, not understanding a damn thing that the voice they just heard, said. Hunt? What hunt?

(Lmao. Terrible lie meets a nat20. Going to think on how to handle this lol)
"What in...Where is Reash? He said they wiped you out. Why are you using the back stairs? Come up here now. I want answers"
“Well, they did cut a couple of us down. Reash, where the **** are you? Get your ass up here and give me some help, dammit! Hold on, boss. Hey, on second thought, come down here a minute.

Ankita tries her best not to giggle at Olaerys and follows his directions to hide until the man comes within reach.
Using her bonus action to cast shillelagh on her staff, she waits for Olaerys's signal.
