Absinthe wallows in self pity while Az Emberi creeps around him along the wall and Hymir sheds light on the situation. Dirk attempts to get breakfast out of the deal, and Fjolnir readies for aggression. (What a motley crew) Az Emberi sees it, and it looks him right in the eye, hisses, turns and runs deeper into the cave, across the north bridge and behind the pillar there.
Az Emberi, Fjolnir, and Dirk all see what it is:
Hymir and Absinthe are still too far away with the light source.
While moving it "says" to all of you, "Yeeessss.... meal.... eat...."
Then to Fjolnir only:
"You're a failure. Is that why you became a hunter, a tracker? To get better at killing pirates?"
(Fjolnir, it's moving away from you, are you going to loose your arrow at it?)
Az Emberi roll Deception vs 17
Everyone gets another round of things to do.

With deep regret for the life he has chosen, Absinthe rises back to his feet. "I shall take this as a sign from the gods. I am this day born ANEW! TO LEAD A MORE NOBLE PATH... OR. SOMETHING. LIKE. THAT!
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Fjolnir, distracted by the penetration of his mind into his deepest secrets, misses his shots. Laughter echoes in all your brains.
In response to Hymir, the thing "says," "I want meat. I don't pay you, you pay me. You are all meat..."
Az Emberi only hears:
Ha ha ha ha ha! Bad dog! Ungrateful of such gifts!
Az Emberi moves up and sees the thing.
Dirk and Hymir, neither of you mentioned moving at all, and Hymir is the light bearer, so Absinthe isn't moving either. Are you getting out of the tunnel?
Also, everyone go ahead and roll initiative, may as well start doing this in an orderly fashion. 14
What is your name creature? We are not easy meat, however we could procure easy meat for you. The question is what do we get in return? And don't tell me we get the right to pass, because that's happening one way or the other. 9 Less a threat, and more a barter. I head to the corridor to the east just across the bridge to see where that leads.

Dirk makes a bargain, and feels pretty proud of himself, but right as he's done speaking he hears the bridge under him creak. It breaks under his weight, and he and the bridge fall into the crevasse. the bridge breaks your fall however, and you take 8 bludgeoning damage and are prone. However, Hymir casts feather fall and Dirk gently lands on his feet 20' down. The bottom of the crevasse is difficult terrain. The temperature down here is unnaturally cold, and you see some things that were not visible from the top:
(Dirk only)
Under the North bridge is a battered wooden chest and a half eaten corpse that looks fairly fresh. You notice the rubble that makes this difficult terrain is actually piles of broken and gnawed on bones.
Absinthe moves forward and shakes his fist vigorously at the thing he now sees:
Oh the terror!
You all "hear" hideous laughter. and then, "That is exactly what it will be, clumsy snake! I will let you walk away, if I get flesh to eat."
Gravity is not my friend, but Hymir is... Thanks guy! Guys, there's a chest down here... a lot of bones, a recent corpse and a chest. I don't know why shit stain is complaining... it has meat. If the chest isn't too cumbersome... I'll just take the whole thing... otherwise.... I'll carefully open the ***** and loot it... loot the corpse too if there is anything and really look around to see if there's any valuables I'm missing... and a good way up. Seeing Absinthe's attention on the monster I sing him an inspirational song with my lute, called Now you're a man. "Hey!What makes a man, is it the power in his hands? Is it his quest for glory? Give it all you've got, to fight to the top.... so we can know your story! Now you're a man (man!) A man, man, man Now you're a man (man!) A manny, manny man A man, man, man (man!) You are now a man. You're a man now you're a man Live it, Live it! What makes a man, is it the woman in his arms? Just 'cause she has big titties? Or is it the way, he fights every day? ...No, it's probably the titties
Now you're a man (man!) A man, man, man Now you're a man-man (man!) Man-man man-man man Now you're a man (man!)M-A-N, man Man, man-man, man Now you're a man!"
I skip up to the creature with joy, and pick it up with the tightest bear hug of an embrace. With the hint of daddy like issues for my late master. "I will squeeze the life out of you simple one." as I gently kiss it on the neck.
