Cade - Having left the group after heading towards the tunnel entrance can hear them talking and discussing among each other but isn't able to hear everything especially since his focus is on the figurine and he is willing it to talk to him more saying, "Where can I find you? I can't find you if you don't tell me."
"Laievis, I'm sure this is very exciting for you, but we still have people to save. Can you please see if these charmed gnolls can get them for us and bring them to us? Or if not that, then at least maybe have them help us get them in some way? Tell us where they are exactly?"
Saerirra tries to keep her cool as best she is able, but between mystical glowing teddy bears, glowing symbols across the gnolls, the potential dangers awaiting just inside the ruins, and her ever present concern for the safety of the captive, she is starting to get unnerved. She looks over to Cade, seeing him mouth words, but unable to discern who he is speaking to.
Peshley quietly moves over toward Cade. It is not a good time for anyone to be wandering of on their own. She tugs on his sleeve and silently motions for him to stop. She couldn’t tell if the others were having any success with the Gnolls, but she didn’t want to see Cade off on his own, especially in such a strange place.
Cade - Feeling the tug on his sleeve he looks at Peshley and she motions for him to stop what he is doing. Feeling rather silly and nervous he puts the figurine back into his pocket and says, "I'm sorry...did something happen? Are we ready to rescue the dwarves?".
"The prisoners are obviously under the ruins together with the remaining gnolls - I was sure I described my findings before. If not - my apologies. Judging by the chanting coming from that under-the-ruin whole, there is a ritual going on there. Meaning, there are not only gnolls like those two but some magic users as well. And if we are to believe our friends here, the prisoners are to participate in the ritual for creating more gnolls. I doubt, they are participating as guests of honour".
He took a deep breath and continued: "If we send those two back to the ruins, not only they will fail to bring the prisoners, but they will join to our future attackers. Do you still want to do it?"

He took a deep breath and continued: "If we send those two back to the ruins, not only they will fail to bring the prisoners, but they will join to our future attackers. Do you still want to do it?"
"Hmmm, good point, I'm sorry. So how can we get them out? I can't do another charm. Do we just go in and fight them? Also, when it comes to these two, perhaps you can tell them I said to go to sleep or leave or something? Just to test how much influence my charm has over them, I mean."
Saerirra places her hand on her cheek, staring up into the sky and tapping her finger against her temple in thought.
Cade - Having left the group after heading towards the tunnel entrance can hear them talking and discussing among each other but isn't able to hear everything especially since his focus is on the figurine and he is willing it to talk to him more saying, "Where can I find you? I can't find you if you don't tell me."
"I am Everywhere....this is MY domain....and these putrid Creatures of the Abyss are soiling it right now...they must be destroyed!"
Cade - Feeling the tug on his sleeve he looks at Peshley and she motions for him to stop what he is doing. Feeling rather silly and nervous he puts the figurine back into his pocket and says, "I'm sorry...did something happen? Are we ready to rescue the dwarves?".
Peshley talks quietly to avoid her voice carrying to anyone else who may be near by. "You were wandering off. We will get to the prisoners soon enough, but we should probably stick together. See what the others have learned first."
Cade - Hearing the voice in head, which is getting stronger and stronger, urgently says to Peshley, "We have to get rid of the Gnolls! They are ruining this place!," He will then push past her and say to Saerirra and Laieivis, "What are we doing?! These things have to go...so what is our plan?".
"I...I don't know! I don't know what to do besides storm the place! But rushing in blindly without a plan is suicide. We should at least have a tactic for the opponents we will inevitably be facing. I can offer a means of easy escape for you four, should it be needed. But beyond that, I can only offer healing for the group. I'm not much for offensive spells against the enemy. And I cannot do another charm attempt. Not until I have rested."
Cade - Seeing Saerirra was flustered by his questions said to her, "Neither am I, but I know that these (He points to the entranced Gnolls) don't belong and are soil there very ground with every step they take.", He looks back at Peshley, "I'm sorry if I rushed past you I am not meaning to be mean, but there has to be something that we can do to affect a majority of the Gnolls and save the Dwarves at the same time...do you know any spell that can do that to the Gnolls giving Saerrira and I...and her two entranced Gnolls a chance of helping the Dwarves escape?"
Uther still standing in the shadows axe at hand sees Peshley run after Cade, a little farther ahead, at the entrance and talk in whispers. And right infront of him he sees Saerirra and Laieivis charming and communicating with the Gnolls. And although Saerirra charm was meant for them, he couldn't help but be charmed as well. He had half a mind to sleep him self. But he must focus the dwarves are in danger and these gnolls seem to be possessed or something unnatural is going on. 'How can they take dwarves to create Gnolls?' He thinks to himself .
He whispers a prayer to Gruumsh as Laieivis attempts to convince them to sleep, not out of fear but out of hast.
