"Flipping a copper might be just as good as anything at the point." He removes a coin from a pouch "Heads this way (1/northwest), tails that way (2/north)" Logum flips the coin and catches it before slapping it on his back hand to reveal it. 1
"Guess we have our fate picked out for us." Sandral says. "It looks like whatever took these out of the owlbear could potentially still be around. Keep an eye and ear out, and maybe we should tie ourselves into threes." He gestures to the rope on his pack. "It's has potential risk, but it also means if someone gets pulled away, there's two to help pull them back."
Alton glares at the dwarf for stealing his thunder, grumnling to himself in halfing as he slides the copper back into his pack and moves to stand near the rrst of the group.
As the group walks to northwest, they see a lot of debris scattered inside the path.
As the group walks further, a heap consisting of broken bricks, pots, wooden planks, and dirt haphazardly mixed and stacked covers their path to the rest of the tunnel.

Believer of the almighty one, the Alpha and the Omega, whose love encompasses all of his creations, RNGesus.
Started as a player at time of registration. Started to DM a month later. Hoping to get better as time progresses.
(Just gonna leave it to my passives. Sandral isn't actively looking for things right now save a way out)
"Guess there's plenty of rubble for things to keep cover in. Be careful." He uses his spells to conjure a small fire and make it dance ahead of him (Control Flames) and hopefully it'll flush out anything in hiding while providing adequate lighting ahead.
Alton raises a brow as they look at the rubble around them, guessing this was the remains of a long abandoned settlement of some sort. He will keepmwith the party but still have his weapon drawn at all times.
Rinc takes a good look at the rubble and found a wooden handle. As he pulls the object out of the heap, he sees it was broken pickaxe.
As Sandral creates a flame ahead of the group to flush out hiding creatures, sounds of chittering and hissing echoed through the tunnel followed by the sound of dirt being burrowed.
Alton draw his weapon, ready to strike at any creature that may come.
The heap starts crumbling as you see a creature whose physiology is similar to an ant, only much bigger, covered with thick, spiky protrusions and sickle-like appendages
It rapidly digs through the heap and as soon it was finished digging through it, the creature takes a moment to look at the group.

Alton sees the strange ant and holds his shortsword up high to let the rest of the party see what is going on. Not trusting that it would be in his best interest to get close he then shrugs and moves towards it to slash with his with his shortsword and one of his daggers. As he does so he moves with more then normal and will go for a defensive flourish.
Defensive Flourish: 2
Shortsword: Attack: 14 Damage: 9
Dagger: Attack: 13 Damage: 6
(With Defensive flourish the d6 is added to both his damage and his max ac until his next turn.)
I shouldn't have asked for a reroll since the shortsword didn't hit a creature to trigger blade flourish. Alton hasn't expended his inspiration die because of it.
The creature looks at the sound of Sandral gigling after remembering a funny pun. Alton takes this opportunity and rushes, his shortsword grazes the creature's body but the dagger pierces on its underside.

Using his handaxe, Rinc does the unthinkable and slaps the creature twice. Unfortunately, Rinc used the flat side with his first attack. Learning from his mistake, he uses the bladed side and succesfully lands the weapon.
Alton follows another flurry of stabs, but the creature blocks both of them with its two spiked limbs.
Sandral then casts a flame-like radiance above the creature.
Ant-like creature Dexterity Saving Throw DC 15: 9
Occupied by the two attackers in front, the giant ant wasn't able to evade as the spell lands on its back.

Logum will call out to the beast. "Run bug; you're gonna get squished!" Even though he believes the bug doesn't understand his words, his tone is lace with cutting magic.

Ant-like creature Wisdom Saving Throw DC 14: 18
As the creature tries to emit a shriek to call others, it wasn't able to produce a sound as its mind stops functioning. The ant-like creature drops to the ground lifeless beside the heap of junk.
The group continues to the end of the tunnel. They arrived at the southwest part of a large cavern with a rack containing spears on the west wall. Small leather armor and broken shields are stacked against each other next to the rack.
Scattered eggshells can be seen at the eastern side where darkness still covers most of its part.
The feather seems to match from the corpse of the large owlbear previously seen at the pit.
As you look closer, there is an attached dried skin to the feather, indicating something pierced the creature deep enough and pulled some of it.
