Creepily (with respect to noise as well as her general visage), Daewen will return back to the statue room and draw a little map of what she just explored in the dust on the floor. Pointing out the room with voices, she writes “DANGER” next to the door.
This cavern has formations of flowstone, stalagmites, and stalactites everywhere. A stone building is anchored in the north wall, and a stone door stands in a masonry wall to the south. A natural gap in the cavern wall to the east reveals a chasm beyond. Numerous lifelike statues have been arranged among the rock formations. The statues depict creatures in poses suggesting shock, fear, or agony.
A male medusa is kneeling down in the center of the room, in quiet meditation. Luckily, he is not facing your way.
And just like that, Mercy NOPEs out of that room and returns to the group. She added her notes to Daewen’s sketch. “There’s a creepy snake-haired guy meditating with a bunch of creepy statues.”

Continuing down the hallway, you come to a fork. You can go north, or south to a double door. Secret DM roll: 7 It is absolutely dead quiet. Where...is everyone??
The double doors are slight ajar. You can see inside. An irregular pit fills the center of this large hall. In the middle of the pit stands an obelisk of glistening black stone. Bleached bones lie scattered near the foot of the obelisk. A smaller stone post in front of the obelisk holds pairs of manacles, which now confine what you think are the missing delegates. There is four cultists and a priestess chanting to the obelisk.

Carrhae closes the door and once again channels the divine power of Sune into her sword. "There. Now we can get through this with a minimal amount of disruption."

The moment Mercy had sneezed was the moment Zephyr knew, they were all ****ed.

Mercy's sneeze sets her shot off a little askew, and thunks into the neck of one of the delegates. She barks in pain, first of all not knowing you're there, and at the pain. Being tied up, she can't do anything about the bolt and falls limp, unconscious, bleeding out. You can't tell if you've killed her or not, but it doesn't look good. The other delegation member shouts in panic. The priestess and cultist turn around, completely startled. The surprise round begins.
Daewen, you can hear talking on the other side of your door.

Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
Realizing there was a rather large double door here, Mercy crept forward to check it out. Not opening it yet.

You put your ear to the door, but don't hear anything. The door is not locked.

After a moment of hushed discussion, Mercy and Daewen pressed forward into the southern hall, taking care not to make a sound.
Stealth: 13
Carrhae will follow Mercy and Daewen to the southern hall, leading the team down with her.

Mercy carefully aimed at the center of the priestess’ back with Dark Magic and pulled the trigger.

Unfortunately, she sneezed at that very moment, sending the crossbow dart wild.
