D.O.R.K nods her thanks, looks to the entryway one last time with trepidation, before ultimately making her way out. It is a difficult process, to say the least, as every plate seemed to want to scrap against stone. Manuevering the torch as well so that she could slip out makes thing no easier. But eventually, the living construct exits, and looks around from the outside.
As D.O.R.K. drags her way through the tiny hole she reaches out to grasp a rock in front of her. As she grabs hold of it, it is not as solid as she expected. It also gives a squeak and then goes silent.
A very confused D.O.R.K just sits there stunned for a moment, before the rock another squeeze to see if anything happens. Only if it squeaks again does he try to pull it more firmly into torch light view to see just what the heck is going on with the stone.

Assuming nothing stands out about the rock(?!?) free and into the light, or she's unable to do so, then she'll keep tightening the grip until she provokes another reaction or potentially crushes the 'Rock(?!?)...

As D.O.R.K. continues to exert pressure on the soft squishy object she feels a sudden pain as a rock smashes into her hand doing (4) HP of damage and voice mutters "let go ya 'orrible golem"
Despite the pain she refused to let go. She does however share share a look with Lukian, before suggesting he poke his head out for a look, moving herself out the way as necessary. Only then would she relinquish her hold. If he however seemed reticent, she whispers out of the hole, "Correction. This operative is not a beast, but an operative of the Red Knight. If you are being held captive, please take hold of my hand."

Taking the brush as signal enough, D.O.R.K tries to grab 'whatever' it was that brushed along the fingers, prior to their slipping away from uncertainty. "Hauling up now." Is all the warning the construct gives before attempting to haul the speaker into the whole.
Though in the event she cannot quite grasp the presumed fingers to brush along her hand, she opts for saying in a whisper just loud enough for the speaker and those in the tunnel, "This is no time for hesitation. Most Orogs have gone, but they will return shortly. We must be well away before then. If you prefer to perish here, we will cease rescue operations there, determining you either do not require our assistance, or wish to die here."

(OOC: I may not have described the situation well enough for you all to picture it in your mind's eye. If any of you have done any caving or spelunking as they call it in the US you may be able to picture this better.)
The hole that D.O.R.K. is trying to wriggle through is what is called a squeeze - this one is actually fairly generous at 30 inches by 30 inches - but D.O.R.K. will need to lie on her back. As she is trying to pull herself through into the larger cavern by grabbing the rocks that is when she grasped the creature. She is however pretty sure that she has not convinced her that she is the lesser of two evils.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
D.O.R.K pulls away on that note, seeming to have accepted the silence as answer enough. Then, the whole situation hits her almost all at once. If constructs could breathe, her frantic looking around would suggest her being on the verge of hyperventilating for a few moments there.

"I-I-I-I cannot be here. This... this operative.. Need space. Acolyte Lukian you and others see if slip through. Fully reach person. Convince them. Th-th-this operative cannot function in this space. Please be advice." She does not wait for answer before trying to scrabble her way as far back the way she came and into at least standing room of the cavern. If, however, the others try to stop her or the attempt proves futile, in her increasing panic, she tries going the other way at the risk of making noise in her rush to get into a more open cavern.
Devin shifts around, moving his shield and looking around the section of cave that they have come to a stop at. Seeing D wriggle back and now Lukian squeeze through the small gap he wonders what is going on but keeps his mouth shut.
Lukian is a bit confused by Dork's instruction for him to wait, but he does so out of respect.

Once confident no immediate dangers lurked beyond the passage, she climbs up as necessary to motion everyone after her.

Lukian is unable to distinguish anything.
D.O.R.K. feels a slight brush against his fingers as if - whatever it is - can't quite decide its the right thing to do.
