"Thanks Zale!" takes the time to say Khessa "Those two, teaming up against me, were making me break a sweat... Maybe they haven't seen a woman for too long? The guy left alone should give us less trouble now".
"Haha! Zale laughs as she stabs the Dragonclaw through the neck. She pulls it out swiftly and he falls to the ground, blood flowing from his mouth and throat. "Heh, You got what you deserved."
By now you also notice that the entrance to the cave ends after a few yards at a 10-foot dropoff. To the right, broad steps are roughly hewn into a natural stone ramp.
The axe sinks into the ribs of Dragonclaw, who remains standing. Kriv shakes and twists his axe to shake loose the body, which finally slumps over to a heap on the ground.
Seeing that both dragonclaws have been finished, Calvin shrugs his little lizard shoulders and decides to remain a lizard for now. He makes his way to the drop and begins to climb down, keeping an eye open for anything else in the dark.

The cavern below is carpeted with a profusion of fungi ranging from a few inches high to nearly as tall as a Human adult. Two paths lead through the fungi: one on the right and one on the left.
The tall adventurer searches then the bodies of the two dead dragonclaws.
After that, the blonde arcane warrior resumes her position in the established marching order and is ready to continue the exploration: "Shall we take the left path?"
While keeping an eye on the fungi (to spot any enemies lurking - if some fungi are as tall as a man...), Khessa also tries to remember if any of those fungi are familiar to her (Can she remember any particular properties some of them have? Or she does not know anything about them?)

The Dragonclaws carry nothing of use. The stairs are a bit to narrow for walking side by side. I mean, you can if you really want to... but the one on the outside might just fall down. So I need a marching order for the stairs.

Ok, then... I'd suggest:
Calvin (lizard) first (since he already went) then Nixi (invisible) scouting ahead with the druid like before, then Khessa, Eric, Zale, Kriv.
Khessa before Eric because Khessa is always very vigilant and difficult to catch off guard (OOC: she has the Alert feat - she can not be surprised while conscious).
Zale before Kriv because I think Kriv could better handle an eventual surprise attack from behind (pure hypothesis - shouldn't happen).
And once down we can resume the previous marching order.
(Speaking of that... Khessa, rolling her 15 Nature did remember something about those fungi? Or are them new to her?)
With that roll you'd probably notice something, but not before you reach the base of the stairs (so you're close enough to notice whatever it is you notice).
As Calvin continues on his way, he is careful to avoid the fungi. He has studied a lot more than just lizards in his time. He is aware that there are number of fungi that are dangerous to be close to, and even breath the spores of. However, he doesn't immediately recognise the fungi growing around here.

(Are they both dead now?)
(Not sure but probably. If the second one is still alive he's barely holding on.)
"Ey don't mention it." Zale laughs, "Nah, they all just be cowards. Speakin o which there probably be more down there."
Yep, that'll do it! You can describe it's death.

Works for you guys?
Yep
(Correct. Calvin went down the side of the drop off, bringing him near the left path)
Player: Any Good Alignment // DM: Lawful Evil
BTW Calvin, are you avoiding the fungi?
