Pax pauses at the flumph's sudden stop. She doesn't quite get who or what that thing is, so she just sits there waiting for the group to figure out what to do.

If not for flumph's weightless nature, Sekkar would stumble, but Useless got out of the way. "Well? Aren't you going with us? The city is a nest of criminals but at least you wont be alone." He remembered in time to send the mental questions. But regardless of the answer, lizardman addressed next question to Pax.
"You said you know some secret way to the city, right? So, can you bring us to it?"
Pax nods, "Indeed. Is this route not satisfactory? Is there danger in going through these warrens? If so, certainly, I know the other route, follow me...and...uh...sure...this thing should come. Why would we not want more strange creatures following us around?" She leads back to the mushroom cave and hangs a right, heading for the secret route she took previously.

The group follow Pax back into the whorl-patterned caves, through Buppido's flesh-pit, through the myconids former haunt, through the fungal forest, and back to the intersection. Rather than following the giant footprints to the north, Pax leads them east along a passage which Sekkar used previously. They pass the small tunnel on the right where Droki was captured and continue on for another hundred feet. Here the tunnel turns left and heads north, while directly in front of them is a zurkhwood door. Pax stops and looks at the door, and then at the tunnel, and then at the door again. Quietly she murmurs I have no memory of this place. Finally she determines that the door is a new addition, but that the secret exit to the city lies in the tunnel beyond. Muffled sounds of conversation and industry come from behind the door.

"I thought you meant you knew a direct path to the docks,"explained Sekkar his question to Pax. "Could have heard you wrong. We can manage from here too if..." Pax was already inside, probably leading to that other exit and the lizardman followed. Until they run into a door.
"Eh... Useless? Rhyana?"Sekkar was not sure who can deal with that mushroom-wood door - Useless could probably read minds of those behind, but who knows what Rhyana's new powers could do with it.
Pax turns to Sekkar, "This path leads to the docks. It avoids the warrens. This door is...new."
She waits patiently while Zeno messes with the lock. She looks to Gorlak. Pulling out a dagger she mutters, "On your knees.", kicking him in the back of his knee and pushing down on his shoulder. She gets him down on the ground, then hog ties him. Once done, she puts her dagger away and pulls out her sword. (Has it been over an hour since our last "battle"?)
"I certainly hope you know where you are going because we seem to be going the wrong way." Kaylyn remarks as she is unhappy to be returning to the same tunnels again.
At Sekkar's question. "I only know of that there is a patch of fungi at the northeastern side of the cave behind the door. I did not travel to it, so I have no idea what we may encounter in there."

Zeno easily determines that the door is not trapped, but is reinforced with crude steel. It takes a few moments but he manages to pick the lock and crack open the door. A tunnel extends about fifty feet and then forks left and right. The sound of dwarven voices muttering can be heard a little more distinctly, along with the sound of machinery and the smell of rot.
Useless floats there expressionless for a moment, then tells Sekkar. The myconids are communicating. I can sense no other telepathy.
Gorlak doesn't resist Pax's attempts to further restrain him, and she is confident that he will not be able to escape with any ability she has witnessed him use so far.

The creature once again proved it name and Sekkar briefly thought that Pax could be right after all, but shook that thought away. "So, myconids. A-ha... I'll go check." He put down the egg ("Please, everyone, watch it!" and moved in slowly and carefully, keeping to the shadows - to get close enough to understand the words.

Pax stands up, "He's hog tied for a reason." She looks at Kastix, "I thought your kind were supposed to be brave." She slaps him on the shoulder, "Watch over the camp, maybe cook us up some food like a nice little woman should." She grins, her soldierly humor playing well in her own mind despite all of it's offensive presumptions....or perhaps, because of them....seemingly totally unaware that she's offending all women in the world, including herself, with such jibes. She follows Sekkar into the cave, staying about 20 feet behind him so as not to totally ruin his sneaky approach.
