Boh- From your studious gaze you gather the following: While Meepo is smaller and badly scarred, the kobolds in the guard posts seem to be well fed and bolder. They seem to be wearing handmade armor of old dragon scales and carrying shortswords.  There are three guards in the room. They seem to regard Meepo as more of a nuisance, but are interested in the group making their way into their hall. 

Scar- The goblin closest to the gate, stretches the chain as far as it will go to approach the gate; Still on his knees. Its says in goblin, 

Pulling out my coin purse I bounce it in my hand and respond with a sneer, "Why give ransom for failures. You not worth it to Durnn if you don't provide. What other information do you have."

Then I turn away from them as if to leave.

Deception if needed: 12

The goblin whines. Insight 13

Meepo returns from the door. Looks at Scar speaking with the goblin. 

"No speak. They say anything to be free. Comes"

He continues down the hallway and makes the right turn towards the end. At the end of that passage you see several marble columns supporting a grand hall. Two heavily armed kobolds stand sentry where the hallway opens up into the room. 

Anton leaves the talking and planning to the others.  He stays near the front, alert for ambush, action or other dangers.

Adalbricht follows staying focused on listening to the kobolds.

Meepo quietly confers with the well armed kobolds, who then step aside and watch you pass warily. You enter a great hall with carved marble columns. Dragons dance over the walls and vaulted ceiling. It is full glory this hall must have been truly a sight to behold. There is a throne fashioned out of rocks and debris, piled beneath an altar bearing the face of a dragon. There are several items on the altar :a wooden ring with some feathers tied to it, a couple of scrolls, and a bottle of a bright red liquid. There is also a key in the dragons mouth.

Upon the throne sits Yusdrayl, a noble bearing kobold wearing moth eaten white robes. She is flanked by a few more heavily armed kobolds. 

"Lady Yusdrayl, They are strong. They can return Calcryx. They come to search for humans taken by goblins." Meepo begins, in Draconic. 

Yusdrayl looks towards you. In common she says, "The party you seek entered into the goblin wards. We watched them as they passed through the temple. If they went below, they are surely with the Outcast. Durnn, goblin leader, serves him. If you return Calcryx, I will reward you with any item you wish from the altar behind me."

Bhuraelea leaves the conversation to the people who speak draconic, and slowly starts to walk around the room studying the dragon reliefs on the walls and the celling. At the same time he is checking for hiden doors, traps and blindspots in the guards field of view.

Cassius looks at the items that lie beyond the leader.

Perception: 9

In Draconic:

"How do we get there?"

In Draconic, Adalbricht says. "That is an acceptable deal. What can you tell us about the goblins and the layout of their territory?"

Ignoring the goblins plee Scar follows Meepo and listens to the offer from Yusdrayl.

"Since it seems you have regular dealings with Durnn and the goblins, what more can you tell us about them. Also who is this "Outcast" that you mentioned? Can you provide a map of the area and a possible location of where Calcryx might be housed?"

 Boh- You quietly sink back into the shadows of the hall. And begin a general circuit around the room. Halfway down the northern wall is a door that is unlocked and untrapped. The metallic stink of rotting meat wafts through the cracks in the door. Further down, are a pair of doors both guarded by kobolds. One of the two doors is obviously barricaded from this side, and has several visible axe and arrow wounds. 

 Cassius- With your sharp eyesight you can see tiny bubbles of light in the Elixir of Health potion. There are three spell scroll with arcane markings and the token looks like a feather that has been tied to a small wooden ring with an acorn. 

"I am sorry, our den is young yet and our hoard is not great. This is all we can afford to offer. But you do us great honor with your words."

To the Party-  "The rooms the goblins inhabit are almost unknown to us. They have not spread far through these halls. They cluster near a large hole that goes deep. Underground cavern. Kobolds feel its presence in the stone. Though none of us know it by sight. I do not know where Calcryx is held, but Meepo will take you to the back way. Quiet and safe. Heed the words."

"Meepo, take them to the back halls. And fix cage!"

"The back way?  Is there a front way?"

Yusdrayl points to the other end of the hall (to one of the doors Boh saw earlier.)

"The goblins come from there. We have trapped the approach and barricaded the doors. They have not come back since."

"Yeah, let's definitely not take the front way then." A still ill-at-ease Obsben perks up. "Is there more you can maybe tell about some special fruit the goblin's have been taking to the surface once a year?" He asks curiously. 

"How severe is the barricade and what kind of traps?  If they're not coming this way, it's the last place they'd expect a raiding party."

in Draconic

"The barricade would be easy to remove; the trap however is a 20 foot fake section of floor hiding a pit. We made no passage around it seeing as how we used it for defense. The fruit the goblins sell each year comes from the Outcast below. I know very little about him except that he is human."

"You look capable enough as warriors, but I can offer a guide. Meepo, you will accompany them into the goblin domain if they wish it."

Several emotions play out over Meepo's face in a matter of seconds. First shock, then terror, then resignation; a little yip escapes his lips and He looks around at all of you and says, "Yes Lady Yusdrayl"

"A pit we know about shouldn't be too much of a challenge.  We can cautiously descend and climb out.  I suggest we consider a frontal assault.  The fact that they're no longer trying to attack through this area makes me think they wouldn't expect it.  That's just my 2 copper though."
