Kix keeps rather close to the group, trying not to stray out of his comfort zone as he keeps his eyes open for threats. His raven, dark and shrouded in the gloom, waits for him as he enters the revealed room.
End up at AM52 with the Raven, as people enter the room, so he'll enter near the last or second to last.

Bastion doesn't like this, but they need to properly sweep the place. "Avan, move on with Rivoril, I'll stay here, and be ready to move to assist either party. Don't engage if you spot a foe, lets just find out what's ahead. If you hear me call out, double back as swiftly as you can."
Other than shifting so others can get by, Bastion will stay where he is on the map, and keep an ear out in both directions.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Rivoril, hears Bastion call out to Avan and him to continue, and move forward, down the passage. Rivoril, continues in the same vain, moving stealthily, listening and on lookout for danger. All the while, being weary of traps, and snares, along the way, disarming if required. He stops short of the corner and takes, a peak, around the corner, seeing what he may spot and hear. After that moving back behind corner.
Note: If it appears safe he will indicate to those behind him, that the passage around the corner appears safe.
Specific action: Rivoril, is moving to map coordinates, AL44, will take a peak, from AL43, down the passage, then retreat behind AL44. If safe, and appears that there is no activity, will motion to Avan. Followed by the others.

Ghanima's hair and skin are carefully hidden by her cloak, gloves over her hands and overall pretected from the elements and her clothing and gear show her as someone used to traveling great distances. Her voice is a melodic mix of elven and what is akin to a middle eastern accent, nothing could hide the youth in her voice though and her eyes have an odd mix of dark and light to them as they reflect from under the hood. "Night is still a bit off, we can get pretty far before then. Do you know how far these ruins are?"
(How much of a load are you carrying? Does it look like it will slow you down?)
Ghanima and Katharina both agree to head to the ruins. There is enough light of the day left that you can get close to the ruins before night falls. If you continue into the night you will arrive at the ruins about two hours after night fall. Let me know if you wish to continue to the ruins or make camp outside of the ruins.
As Rivoril looks around the corner he will see that the corridor contines for at least 60 ft. He can see two doorways (light blue color on map). What is everyones action from there?
Katharina glances at her new acquaintance. What is she hiding under all those clothes? Very intriguing. " Well darkness is falling. Looks like we will have to make camp soon unless we push on through the night. What do you think? " Katharina smiles at the setting sun. " I would rather keep going myself. I'm not afraid of the dark. "
She isn't heavily burdened and is traveling light.
"Well that's something we have in common then," the twinkle in her eyes reflects under her hood and the star shaped iris in the deep blue orbs began to catch more and more of the fading light. "We should at least know each other's strengths? I'm a cleric of Meiliki, watch out for those on the road, stand up for the general good of all. You know that kinds of thing. I haven't been at it long so I have some back up potions and scrolls. You?"

Rivoril, seeing that the passageway seems clear of hostiles, indicates this to Avan. He will say that there is a couple of doorway's ahead, however, the one on the right appears closer, to his position.
He will, inform the other's he will scout ahead to the closest doorway, and inspect it, see if it is locked. He will check for any traps, snares again including at the door/doorway itself. But he will notopen the actual door, if there is one? Instead he will wait to report findings to the others, first.

Specific action : Rivoril, moves to doorway at AE42 to do all of this, but is moving stealthily, and checking for traps, on route. If there is no actual door, but only a doorway, he will hide behind corner, and still listen, but will not need to open any locks, or a door itself.
Katharina studies her while hearing her out. " Meiliki.... Very interesting. I haven't met many followers of hers before. You will make a great travel companion. Please dont give me a potion if I'm hurt. I don't care for them. Save them for yourself. " She looks at the now visible stars and back to her fellow traveler. " I follow no deity. I travel from place to place making money where i can. I'm a decent scout and fair with these. " With dazzling speed she produces a curved kukri in each hand. Just as quickly she sheaths them again.
Ghanima does not look surprised to see Kurki's but still looks at Katharina oddly, "How can you be an atheist in a world filled with the influences of the divine? You know they exist, you know there's someone up there that has like interests. Most of Meiliki's followers are druids and rangers, you'll barely see them out and about. Most followers you will see are rangers or like me, cleric on the road dedicated to protecting travelers of course which many adventures fall under but Virtue; is always something that needs protecting so hearing that the women of this village were taken was a cause for immediate action!"
She shrugs at this. " Deities....What good do they do? I know they are there but they do nothing for me or the world. Face it....we live in a world full of monsters. Each of us must face that on our own. I live or die on my own. "
She pauses for a moment and then seems to remember the current situation. " You are correct though. We must aid this village. Monsters in human or non human form can't be allowed to take their women away. "

The jackal and Avan follow closely behind Rivoril, listening out for the telltale sounds of movement. Avan moves to AE43 to peek over Rivoril's shoulder, while the jackal takes up the space behind AF42, relaxing his breathing as he's no longer scraping through a narrow passage.
Rivoril and Avan both do not hear anything behind the door. The door is locked. Neither one hear or see anything further up the passage that continues before it turns left. The Jackal does not seem to hear or spot anything dangerous either. Avan returns to the room and tells the others that the way seems clear for now.
Katharina and Ghanima advance through the evening and dark into the ruins. As they enter the ruins they can hear some sounds coming from their left up a small side road.
Meanwhile Arilynia stands there watching the wide cavern ahead of her as the rest have disappeared down the small side passageway. She is not sure but she thinks she sees a small flicker of movement ahead in the wide passage.
Katharina nods to her and moves up beside her. She pulls out her kukris and holds them down by her side. All of her considerable senses are watching and listening for what is coming down the road.
Arilynia thinks briefly as to what to do, does she call out the others that have gone the small passage or does she investigate what she thought she saw. She thinks the former is the better way to go and moves closer to the small corridor and calls out down that she saw a bit a movement. She will then wait as what the group will do now.

Kizarn moves up further, unaware that one of the party has been left behind. His raven perched on his shoulder, they both look up towards where the rogue has explored.

The dhamphir glances at Ghanima. She whispers, " As a cleric, do you have anything to help here? Otherwise I suggest we wait until they pass by and attack from the rear. "
She frowns in concentration for a moment and looks up. Shadows seem to swirl and move with her now.
She assumes the child of shadow stance while waiting for Ghanima's response.

"If we're not engaging, then I don't need to be weighed down with my armour," Avan says. "Can you all please help me take it off?"
It takes about a minute and a half before the jackal quietly follows behind Rivoril, with Avan behind the large canine.

Considering the closest person to you is 110 feet away how loudly do you call down to them Arilynia?
Katharina and Ghanima you both see what looks like a mixture of skeletons and zombies coming towards you.
