Walt would stand nearby.. keeping an eye out for threats in case this goblin turns out to be some sort of decoy. "Let's wrap this up... Either squeeze him for information or let him go... Just make it quick.... I don't trust anyone down here that isn't a member of the guild." He would say as he crosses his arms.. still holding his sword and shield.
Barinthus nods at Walt's words and says, "yes I think exploring this area in a timely manner is part of the job, although would the goblin happen to know more about the rumored mirror?"
Donkee says " have Mache go check out the mirror and we can continue this way...kill two bir...kill two gob...I mean kill two bugbears with one stone."
Donkee will then hand the goblin one of his business cards and tells him to stop by to trade skulls sometime.
The goblin gives you directions to the nearest outpost he says works for the Xanathar. He also tells you that Grunt was one of those who worked for Xanathar as well. He knows of the mirror, but not more than it is there.
As soon as you let him go he picks up his sack of skulls and scampers off, heading in the same general direction as his escaped companion.
What do you do now? I saw mention of sending Mache to look at the mirror, that is a ways back now, but he can double back if you wish him to do so. If you just wish to continue forward, then I'll move into the next scene...
"Le's go see what's there to see with tha mirror. Could be valuable." Ellya says this after the goblin has passed her. She points to the goblin's back with one hand and makes a hand gesture of someone walking with the other hand.
"Alright... so I was hired keep you all alive while we map out this dungeon... that being said.. going back to look at a mirror doesn't sound like it is part of the job. " Walt would add as he puts his sword in his sheath. He would then pull out his decisionists coin and give it a flip. "is going back to look at the mirror a terrible idea?..." he would ask while the coin tumbled in the air. Once the coin landed, the word "Ruinous" would appear. "See... We need to stick to the mission. Draw a picture of a mirror on that section of the dungeon and be done with it... but if you all want to vote, I am putting two votes towards continuing on our way..." Walt would add.
When donkey sees the carving he will say, " reminds me of Vaden..haha where is a rock when you need one...hey, then you could say he was playing rock music...that could be a thing. Using rocks to make music by chucking them at fat guys.."
Donkee will pull out his notebook and write that idea down
Barinthus looks at the carving and contemplates the meaning of the words wondering if there might be some clue in past literary works or historical documents he read in the past. While no expert he was an educated man who had encountered a variety of things in his relatively long life.

"Color orange? Wha's that meen?"
“Groin...we just like em” Stop Thief turns to everyone with his beak wide open like ‘eh eh?’
“Groin. Groin. We just like em.”

“Let’s get a move on. I feel we need to have some words with this two headed beast of a boss. And maybe one of those words will be mirror.”
"I'm all for seein' bout that mirror, maself," Ellya says as she mimes running after the goblin with her arms and legs.
Donkee says " Lets move forward and smash something...Donkey Kong is feeling neglected. That Pibble was a good dude"
"Two-headed bully not big boss..." Grunt puts in as he scurries along near Donkee.
As you continue onwards, Mache, Ellya, and Stop Thief find the following,as they scout the path ahead of the group...
Bas-Relief. Carved into the back wall of this alcove is a shallow niche containing a bas-relief sculpture of a nude, heavyset man playing a harp.
Half a Pole. Lying on the floor of the alcove is a broken half of a 10-foot pole.
“Well what have we here. A merry lad by the looks of it,” Rurik says as he leans in close for a better inspection.

When donkey sees the carving he will say, " reminds me of Vaden..haha where is a rock when you need one...hey, then you could say he was playing rock music...that could be a thing. Using rocks to make music by chucking them at fat guys.."
Donkee will pull out his notebook and write that idea down
Close inspection of the bas-relief reveals the following inscription carved into the harp, in Common:
Gaze upon me with bronzed visage
And secrets shall I reveal.
Barinthus looks at the carving and contemplates the meaning of the words wondering if there might be some clue in past literary works or historical documents he read in the past. While no expert he was an educated man who had encountered a variety of things in his relatively long life.

[OOC: How large is the image in height and length?]
Ellya picks up the pole and tries to determine how it got broken.
Investigation: 21
Rurik mises at the words. “Well Shadowlight, think we should do some detectin’?”
Rurik casts Detect Magic hoping that is close enough to “bronze visage”
Donkey will check his brain and see If some random tidbit of information stored there will help
