"Yes!  Let that be a lesson to you!"

Kestrell turns to the rest of the group:

"What do you guys think, should we try and rest here, or go back up to the house?  Or keep going?"

Urgog looks at the Grick on the table then around the room. "We could stay in this room. May need to clean it abit." He stands his hammer in a corner before freeing the glaive. Putting the ends of the blade under the grick, he maneuvers it off the table. remembering a magic caster he worked with once before, he looks at Kestrell. "You do not have the ability to clean the area and light candles with a thought, do you?" He continues to move the grick towards the east doorway.

If it's a consensus among the party, then you may take a short rest here.

"Why yes, yes I do."

Kestrell casts Prestidigitation and cleans the table and any chairs, and lights any candles in the room.

"Should we block the doorway somehow?  Are we just having a quick bite to eat and catch our breath, or are we going to try and get a good nights sleep?"

Urgog looks at the rest of the party and grunts. "You guys look pretty beat up. We should get a good rest while we can. It maybe a bit before we can get another." He turns and moves to the area the grick was in and checks it for further enemies or hidden items.

Perception: 9

"Yeah, I feel pretty beat up."

Kestrell pushes the table over to the south entrance and stands it up in order to block the entrance.

Strength: 4

Zed takes one of the chairs and pulls it into a corner facing inwards towards the room. He sits down and crosses one leg over the other.

"I'm ready to go whenever you all are." He says as he crosses his arms over his chest.

Urgog doesn't notice much, other that the chanting is still echoing throughout the basement. Kestrell struggles to push the table toward the hallway.

"Ugh!  Could I get a little help with this table?"

Urgog glances at Kestrell struggling, sighs and moves over to help him lift the table.

Strength: 20

"Zed, can you check that place where that thing came out and make sure there are no more surprises?"

Eldon just nods to the party "Let's finish this - I've about had it with this house."

Zed stands up and checks out the alcove in the wall.

Perception: 16

Urgog assists Kestrell and shoves the dining hall table against the entry point to the hallway. Zed doesn't notice anything peculiar from the larder in which the Grick was hiding. Zed however hears a flat, groaning sound emitting from down the hallway, the same direction the Grick was initially attempting to run to.

"Thank you Urgog, that was heavier than I thought. Well, now what should we do?"

Urgog grunts at Kestrell with a nod and walks back to the corner near the alcove and sits with his back to the wall.

The party spends the next hour inside the Dining Hall. Relaxing, eating, and trying to tone out the ominous, incessant chanting. Xavice, the arakoacra Monk, has flown over the barricaded hallway and ventured down the corridor. He informed the party that the horrific house was too much for him to bare and is leaving. The party notices that they're two doors. A door that goes West, and the other door going North. The door facing North is the direction in which Zed heard the feeble groaning from. The East hallway was barricaded with the table. Which way will the adventurers go now?

Neither way, we are sleeping. I'll take the first watch.

Urgog spends most of the rest making sure the weapons are sharp and in order and that his armor has no tears  in the chains. He opens one of his rations and eats it and sparingly drinks from his water skin.

Eldon just spends the rest praying to Pelor for the groups protection and the assistance in putting down restless souls. He looks over to the party when they’ve all seemed to catch themselves, he just lifts his mace to the eastern hallway “I say we go that way. How about the rest of you?”

Urgog looks towards Eldon than at the rest of the party. "As long as we find lots of gold, I am good with it. Maybe a comfy place to take a nap."
