So you guys are out of initiative and can make your way back down this walkway that runs along the cavern wall. You had seen a pathway that headed out towards what we've been calling South even though it's difficult to gauge direction underground. Jorlan and two guards had gone out that way earlier. There was also another possible exit but you'd have to find a way to safely get down a ways into the chasm.
As he follows the group, Garruk pops the last two remaining goodberries into his mouth. Every so often, he will turn around to make sure there is no one following the party.
The guard that helped us went this way. We may have to fight 2 more guards...maybe him too. I don't know, but I'm going to follow this trail out instead of climbing walls and such. Y'all rest if you need.
Recwyin scouts the area for food,tools, weapons etc while his wounded friends rest.
Lucky, turning to the mushroom hopping along, struggling to keep pace, and says, "Mushroom creature, you said home was down there somewhere?" Lucky points downwards into the chasm.
Rhogar will turn and face the group "If we want to go down into the chasm, Sut has located a way of getting down there. Otherwise we need to get moving... Destroying those two bridges bought us some time but those spiders could still be after us."
I don't know if his home is down. I think the chasm was in the way of getting home not on the way. I told him I'd help. Stool, will going down into the chasm get you home?
Attached to the edge of the walkway farther down is a winch-and-basket device consisting of a large swinging arm that carries a thin cord of strong spider silk. The cord runs through a series of pulleys from a hand-cranked horizontal spool to a heavy woven basket suspended at the end. The basket is sitting up on the platform at the moment.
Buppido pipes up, "Ahh yes, I saw some of the quagotths cranking something up from down below once, while i was being sent to clean out the barracks."
Recwyin attempts to follow while retrieving arrows and looting drow corpses.
Recwyin heads out across the southern bridge, stopping briefly to snag a short sword and a crossbow, and follows behind Eldeth.
**Garruks turn**
Garruk casts Frostbite on the closer of the two spiders crawling towards the group then turns and follows the fleeing group.

Garruk leans out the window and sends a wave of ice at the spiders. Con save: 5
But the spider shrugs off the frosty attack and keeps coming.
The 2 drow, seeing an opportunity, fire their bolts at Garruk. Attack: 16 Damage: 4 + Attack: 15 Damage: 8
But both bolts miss and bounce harmlessly off the stalactite.
The group upstairs sees the opportunity arise and come downstairs and starts heading across the bridge.
The two Drow reload their crossbows and prepare again to fire on anyone attacking in that direction.
**Lucky's turn*"
(Lucky's intent is to catch up to Rhogar and heal him. I think he took off so I'd have to move first to see him...I think?)
Lucky catches up to Rhogar and yells, "Right behind ya!"
Lucky casts Cure Wounds on Rhogar.

Rhogar will nod to Recwyin in agreement and will ask Sut to help him scout the area.
Sut scout :7
Sut spots something of interest farther along the walkway you're on, it looks like it might be a means of lowering you down into the chasm.
Recwyin doesn't spot anything useful in this part of the cavern.
You are all moving faster then the spiders were, so looking back Garruk doesn't see anyone following behind.
Lucky, turning to the mushroom hopping along, struggling to keep pace, and says, "Mushroom creature, you said home was down there somewhere?" Lucky points downwards into the chasm.
Rhogar will turn and face the group "If we want to go down into the chasm, Sut has located a way of getting down there. Otherwise we need to get moving... Destroying those two bridges bought us some time but those spiders could still be after us."
Stool replies, "Yes, Stool knows the way, you can follow me!"
**Are you guys going to check out the thing Sut found?
(Lucky would like to check out what Sut has identified. He's been really great so far. It sounds like Stool's home might be that way too.)
I don't know if his home is down. I think the chasm was in the way of getting home not on the way. I told him I'd help. Stool, will going down into the chasm get you home?
Rhogar will motion to the others to follow him and start making his way to where Sut mentioned was a way down.

Buppido pipes up, "Ahh yes, I saw some of the quagotths cranking something up from down below once, while i was being sent to clean out the barracks."
Lucky looks around and says, "Well then...that begs the question: Who goes down first?"
Did you see what they moved? How many of us can go at once, and do we have a plan to get back up if we all go?
