We're all built for manual labor. That's part of why the gods made our bodies are the way they are - to lift, move and carry, to fight, to make a change on our environment. If we were made to be indolent and lazy, we would just be floating brains.
Based on what Talien has said, he was made to fight. Unless you haven't told us something relevant Talien?
Let's go, more hands gets it done quicker.

Shake will help move the rubble, but while doing so he sings a popular elven song.
"Nawr, nid yw'r byd yn symud i guriad un drwm yn unig, Efallai na fydd yr hyn a allai fod yn iawn i chi yn iawn i rai. Mae dyn yn cael ei eni, mae'n ddyn o fodd. Yna dewch â dau, ni chawsant ddim byd ond eu jîns. Ond cawson nhw, Diff'rent Strokes. Mae'n cymryd Diff'rent Strokes. Mae'n cymryd Diff'rent Strokes i symud y byd. Mae gan bawb fath arbennig o stori; Mae pawb yn dod o hyd i ffordd i ddisgleirio. Nid oes ots na wnaethoch chi lawer. Felly beth? Bydd ganddyn nhw nhw, bydd gennych chi un chi, a bydd gen i fy un i. A gyda'n gilydd byddwn ni'n iawn!'Cuz mae'n cymryd Diff'rent Strokes i symud y byd, Ydy mae'n ei wneud. Mae'n cymryd Diff'rent Strokes i symud y byd."
Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum, What might be right for you, may not be right for some. A man is born, he's a man of means. Then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans.
But they got, Diff'rent Strokes. It takes Diff'rent Strokes. It takes Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Everybody's got a special kind of story; Everybody finds a way to shine. It don't matter that you got not alot. So what? They'll have theirs, you'll have yours, and I'll have mine. And together we'll be fine!
'Cuz it takes Diff'rent Strokes to move the world, Yes it does. It takes Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.
Talien will only remove the gear that would be in his way (all blades strapped to his waist and arms as not to damage them) and clear as much rubble as possible, saying nothing but running the whole time with no inkling of slowing down or sign that any exertion is being made. Once the job has finished he dusts himself off with a rag and places all of his weaponry back into place, swapping the locations of every weapon he has and testing it a few times.
"Don't be a dick, Alten, they're just trying to learn," Rees says with a grin. She'll help clear the rubble, but is a wimpy wimp so she's basically just picking up the little things that Talien drops and sweeping pebbles out of the way.

Meepo grins ear to ear and pitches in too - he is only moving small the small stuff too.
Alten shoot Grom a look that seems to say "What the hell? Are you believing this?"
And what language is Shake singing in? never mind, just saw it
after dropping the last of the rocks the help clear, he catches the look from Alten, "I can't explain any of this anymore... What a time to stop drinking"
Seeing Talien Fling the door open and step in "Talien Wait!!........"
Talien turns to Alten and eyes him for a moment. He then shrugs and moves forward into the room as he whispers Time is wasting. They know we are coming. We have a deadline for the wand, and I need to find the hammer.
You want to just stumble forward blindly? Where's the tactical sense in that?
If you know an enemy is coming and have time to prepare, do you just let him walk up to you and start fighting at full strength? Or do you send men to bait and harry, set traps, weaken him a bit before final combat starts?
As for the deadline, I suspect one such as Carlisle would prefer the wand secured later than expected, rather than having to locate it and recruit another group to go after it again because we died rushing forward foolishly and the wizard relocated because someone came after him.

Meepo looks at his feet looking abashed and says nothing.
Who's clearing the next rubble pile?
Shake about the rubble pile: "Shouldn't Talien remove this rubble? He seems built for just that sort of manual labor."

Alten bends over to start clearing a path.

Roughly ten minutes go by and you have cleared the door of all the stone and debris that was hastily thrown in front of it the night prior.
Assuming someone will check for traps, please make an investigation or perception check.. your choice.

Seems to be clear... it seems like the goblins were just trying to slow you down.
"I don't see any traps ahead, but it is always best to be careful just in case." Shake tells his companions.

The room appears as you left it.. the plants in the hexagon shaped room are now glowing with a pale purple light however....
Grom, you want to send Ungrim on forward as far as you an to scout it for us?

Grom will send ungrim in same as this room, get in the door and then go up trying to get an raised view
