"Well I am glad you found a neat stick and a book in a room full of books" Golver would say rolling his eyes with a small grin on his face before looking to the others. "While you read that book and play with your stick, I am going to take a peak behind this door that was barricaded before we head out through the secret one." The dragonborn would announce before attempting to open the door just wide enough to look through.
OOC: Apologies I thought y'all were leaving through the paneling or the door but couldn't decide which my bad!
Golver opens the barricaded door to a darkened corridor. He thinks he hears the echoing of footsteps coming closer but their author is not yet visible!
Caerlan finds the journal is written in the same language as the papers scattered about the room It like them are completely unclear. He also realizes they share similar odd runes which are also foreign to him.

"Sounds like someone is coming this way guys... but I cannot make what it is..." Golver would whisper over his shoulder before sticking his golden snout back out the door. "I don't think we have 10 minutes until whatever it is gets to us... so you want me to attack it or should we head out the secret path?" The dragonborn would say as flickers of flame begin to dance around his fingers as he prepares to launch a fire bolt at anything hostile coming his way.
"Did they sound friendly? We could sure use a new friend around here." Necey says looking around the room, and her eyes stop on the body. "Though... I hope they aren't the one that caused that," she adds nervously.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"I cannot tell much from the footsteps" Golver will say before taking his glowing orb in his claw and sticking it out into the hall next to his head, shining the light down the hall and looking hard.
Kat stops fiddling with her horn and looks at the tunnel the footsteps are coming from. "It better not be whoever caused that," she growls, anger making its way momentarily into her voice as she balls her fists. "What do you see, Golver?"
Golver's light alerts who've is walking and the footfalls move more quickly as if the person is now running towards the door but still Golver sees nothing and no one!
"The footsteps are getting closer!" Golver will shout over his shoulder before quickly reaching over and grabbing one of the ink jars off the table nearby with his free hand and transferring his /light to the object before throwing it down the hallway "I am trying to see farther down the hallway, but I hope you guys are ready if things go badly! You may want to position yourselves next to that secret door!" The dragonborn would say as his eyes narrow and he watches to see what is coming.
OOC: I was thinking that since Golver is looking down the hallway through the door that was barricaded... that if it turns out to be a giant bad guy that we could flee through the secret door that the bad lady went through

Necey squeezes her way in front of Golver and shines her lantern down the hallway. "Umm.... Hello? Who goes there?" she calls down the hall, her voice wavering. She watches the pool of spilt ink to see if footprints begin to appear approaching.

Kat grins. "I can tell you what this stuff does if you give me ten minutes, but I don't know if you guys want to like catch up to the hooded person."

OOC: Kinda up to y'all to move or not. I can't narrate until y'all decide!

Ooc: Golver opened, or tried to open, the door that was blocked by the desk to take a peek out.
OOC: Yeah, I was waiting to hear about what was on the other side of the barricaded door (assuming it wasn't locked or trapped)
Caerlan also looked in the book, obviously not reading the whole thing but did he recognise the language or the subject.

(OOC I vote we see who's coming down the hall.)

OOC: Throwing towards the sound or away?

OOC: Towards the sound, I am hoping to illuminate the hallway a little farther down in the hopes of seeing who is coming a little sooner
Kat nods and positions herself next to the secret door so that she can easily grab anyone who comes through.

The ink pot with light cast on it just flies down the hall and shatters on the floor revealing no one but the footsteps abruptly stops.
