As you move into the right tunnel, merely ten feet further in you find an entrance to your right closed off with a wooden barrier. Farther down the tunnel you can see two more branches split off to the left, and at the far end of the tunnel is another entrance sealed off with another wooden barrier.
It's darker as you get deeper into the cavern. Moira and Witt both have difficulty seeing anything past this point.
When Nemeia spots Witt squinting into the darkness, she grabs a small rock and bores it out with her tinkertools. She draws a rune encased in wiring into the rock and hands it to Witt. The small rock now emits a bright light that extends roughly 5 feet. She smiles as she passes it to Witt, hoping to see that he's impressed by her talents.

"Fair enough, though I'm pretty sure they know we're coming." Sora says as she follows 9's lead and begins moving carefully forward. She moves up to the entry way right next to them, carefully observing for signs of goblins on the other side.
"The one that escaped has probably warned the others. Just don't rush into a dark room." Nemeia holds her crossbow at the ready making sure to keep her finger off the trigger. She'll stay behind the others as she doesn't find herself particularly quiet.
As you walk up to the doorway you can see it is a makeshift barricade made from the rough nailing together of various slabs of wood gathered from the materials around the mine. Not particularly strong or sturdy, but enough to block off easy access to whatever lay beyond the tunnel. Though you cannot see anything past this simple barrier, you can hear the sounds of goblins arguing loudly not far from the other side.
Whatever argument they were having cuts short suddenly as the group gets closer.
Oh, um, thank you very much, says Witt, accepting the stone. How... did you do that? I don't think I've seen the method before. But if we're trying to sneak up on these goblins, I should probably keep it covered for the moment, he adds, sticking it into one of the pockets in his armour. Um, would you mind if I held onto something - one of the straps of your pack, maybe - so I can follow in the darkness?
Having thought they were going to take a brief rest Moira had been sorting things in her pack. “Nemiea I meant to a....” Her words cut short as she looks up just catching the last of the group moving into the next tunnel. She moves over. Seeing the pitch black of the tunnel ahead she whispers to Witt. “If trouble starts do your light spell. I’ll wait here and at Watch our backs.” Moira waits at the watching the group, or at least what she thinks is the shapes of the group, move down the passageway. Every once in a while glancing behind her for any sign of movement from the other tunnels.

Mary, follows the group, quietly and avoiding looking into the bright light that the halfling is holding. She's not a fan of being in the rear of a group, so she constantly pays attention to the rear.
Sora looks back at the rest of the group and whispers to them quietly, "I'm sure there's goblins behind this wood, but I'm guessing they know we're here. Any ideas? Or should we just try rushing them?"
“I don’t think they are up for discussion. You can try though, just be careful.”, 9 squints her eyes trying to see the goblins, but the darkness presses on, refusing to reveal them fully.
"Well **** it, might as well give it a shot. Probably won't accomplish much else out here." Sora whispered to no one in particular. She stood up straight, leaned back, then kicked the wooden doorway down as hard as she could. With luck, she would rush into the room, swords out, ready to slash more goblins.
Sora easily kicks down the wooden barricade, knocking it over till it falls to the ground. As you rush in, you're able to easily make out three goblins in a medium sized room. One of them is very likely the goblin that ran away before. They look like they may have been trying to hide but don't seem to be doing a very good job of it. All three goblins start screaming as soon as Sora bursts in, raising their weapons as they charge in to attack.

Witt nods to Moira and silently follows Nemeia while wondering how all these people seem able to see in the dark so well.

That seems very risky, Witt whispers. We don't know how many there are. Can't we try talking to them?
