“Well I guess this is a dead end. Back to the door in the corridor?” Royan heads back into the room with the northern fountain to get away from the smell and waits for the others.
Rhayna will just wait by the northern fountain. She rather not go into Mama Rat’s room.

“I checked. It all seemed quiet there. I say we carry on, unless somebody needs a moment to collect themselves?”
If the rest of the group are ready to move Royan will return to the door at the far end of the corridor, just before the southern fountain room. Cautiously, he will check the door once more. If all seems fine, he will wait for the others and then open it and step through.
Royan already checked the first door, so I'm gonna save the perfect roll for the next door. :)
Heading back down past the cells, the party turns west to the door that Royan previously indicated was silent and safe. Sure enough, the door opens into another empty room. Cautious after the recent ordeals, and not trusting to false safety, Royan takes extra care checking the northern door leading out of this room. In doing so, he notices some damage around the top edge that seems to indicate it has been tampered with. Showing the others, and on their collective advice, he opens the door slowly and notices the following ...
- A bell has been attached to the door about 3 feet off the ground. - The area behind the door is a 10-foot-wide hallway, the floor of which has been strewn with sharp caltrops. - He hears guttural voices from somewhere further down or beyond the hallway, seemingly made by two voices - He notices a rather unpleasant smell in the air beyond, rather like unwashed bodies
Anyone who enters the corridor, must make a Stealth check to avoid detection. They must move at half speed to avoid the caltrops, or make a DEX save. If anyone attempts to disable the bell, make a Sleight of Hand check.

@Kastix: (It's a success, but only just, so...) Kastix fiddles around with the bell for a few moments, trying to remove it from the door without causing a sound. In the end he manages to grab the clapper with one hand and lift off the bell with the other, but now both his hands are occupied with holding the bell.
(Any action that requires either hand will cause Kastix to drop the bell)
(So far so good on the Stealth checks. I'll just have Kastix and Kaylyn declare whether they enter the corridor (with a Stealth check) or wait at the door.)

(OOC: Ima just roll Stealth for Kaylyn, and put her near the back too... 17)
Royan and Ireniana pick their way carefully and quietly along the dark, caltrop-strewn corridor, followed by nimble Kaylyn and less-nimble Rhayna (who manages to just maintain her balance). As they proceed, they can see a rough, crudely-mortared, 3-foot-high wall, complete with crenellations, separating the northern end of the corridor with the room beyond. Beyond the wall, the filth on the floor, stains on the walls, shabby hides, and firepit attest to the years of use this room has seen at the hands of creatures unconcerned with hygiene. Two goblins are stationed behind the half-wall, babbling to each other in their guttural, indecipherable language, and are unaware of anyone's approach.
At the far end of the corridor, Kastix is carefully holding the bell, but as the others reach the wall, his foot shifts slightly and scuffs one of the caltrops, which makes the tiniest metallic sound as it flips over. The goblins suddenly stop talking, and stop and listen to see if they hear the sound at the end of the corridor again, unaware of the two armed figures standing above them...
COMBAT! Roll Initiative everyone. - Royan and Ireniana are right beside the goblins, with only a short wall in between, so they can have a surprise attack round with unrestricted melee. Let me know your actions for the surprise round AND the next round please. - Kaylyn and Rhayna are right behind them and Kastix is at the other end of the corridor, so none are in melee range and the goblins are in full cover, so they won't participate in the surprise round. Just let me know your actions for the next round (if Royan and Ireniana don't hog all the action)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Initiative: 3
Kastix will continue down the corridor slow not to step on the point things but without any regard to stealth down and be prepare dodge action if possible.

Initiative 8
Kaylyn cautiously makes her way down the caltrop strewn hallway but freezes as the smallest sound is heard and the goblins stop their speech. She can't see the goblins so she readies Sacred Flame to cast it on the first goblin she sees.
The two goblins don't even get a chance to look up before two swords swing down soundlessly on their heads. Leaping over the wall, Royan and Ireniana slash again at the still forms to make sure they don't get up, and one goblin head goes rolling across the floor. Kastix breathes a sigh of relief and with a small jingle he releases his grip on the bell and stows it away, then picks his way down the corridor with Kaylyn and Rhayna, and over the small wall.
A search of the room turns up putrid jerky, vinegary wine in poorly preserved water skins, and other worthless bits of clutter, along with 26 silver coins. From beyond the adjoining door in the south wall, a sound can be heard - rather like repetitive but irregular thunk-thunk-thunk thunk-thunk-thunk followed by a minute's break, then repeated.
