Laine keeps loosely following Nisha. He does lean over to Nathaniel however, "I took a look below that manhole cover. There's a minecart further in with stuff in it."
Not really feeling like staying around for Jaske or the big woman to come out of his office and face them, Nisha would casually try to make her way on the upper floor, glancing around and nodding at her companions to make sure they follow her intentions.

The pale winged Tiefling nods discreetly at Laine. "Maybe the Skull's escape route, or ours if things go south here." He says with a small smile and a wink.
As the Half-Elf ascends to the next floor, Nathaniel quickly follows her, hoping the others do too.
"I'll keep an eye on it then,"he replies. Better to make sure it stays clear.
Laine doesnt follow immediately cause a bunch of random workers all following together is sus. He eventually works his way around the room and up to the next floor.
As Nathaniel randomly moves the levers and wheel the room becomes hotter by a significant amount and the locked door opens partially. The doors are soon almost glowing red hot. Only by resetting the levers and wheel exactly as it was before will the room slowly cool down, but doing so locks the door firmly.
If Nisha also heads into the hallway, she finds a stairs that leads to the 3rd floor.
Kaelen just continues to follow Nisha making sure to stay a safe distance behind her.

3rd floor.
The party finds themselves in a small empty room at the top of the stairs and the only door is closed and locked.
"This doesn't feel right," Gavyn whispers, feeling uneasy. He draws his axe. "We are boxing ourselves in."
Kaelen just follows Nisha's lead staying a few feet back and watching their rear as they continue to move in case someone comes up behind them.
