“Let keep moving forward. It’s steep here so make sure you have good footing.” Rou will lead the group up northwest. Continuing to keep look out he will stay a head of the group about 10ft.
Flutter patters along behind the group. The steep ridge ahead looks intimidating, but he doesn't want to appear weak-willed in front of his friends. Before putting his shoulders up and following along up the ridge, he quietly mimics the sound of the growling he heard earlier while pointing in the direction it came from. Afterwards, he taps on his beak to try and hint to the group that he can communicate with whatever it may be.
" -Help"
He mimics. Maybe whatever is down there can help the group out later on.
Rou seeing the bird mimic “help”, he will come down the slope. “What is it I don’t like leaving enemies to my back.” Rou growls as he Helps the bird up.

Rou's helping Flutter: 13
With the scrapping of shin and talon, along with the Rou's mighty arm, Flutter just manages to scramble it up to the top... just!
Kharnyl, still riled after their previous ambush from the goblin, holds a spell ready for the next goblin he sees... and what does he find when he turns around?
DEX DC: 13 Goblin with headband (G4) Save:11 Damage on hit: 8 (radiant)
With a yelp, the goblin with the headband jumps to its feet, crude sword in hand - it's comrades huddled by fires eating nondescript meat join in!
As the party goes deeper into the tunnel, Aldreric relies on running his hand along the wall and reaching out to his comrades in order to navigate the tunnels ahead.
Aldreric whispers aloud,”If I’d known we were going to deviate from our hired task, I would have at least brought a lantern or torch.”
It would appear Flutter's words fell upon deaf ears, as when he said 'help' to signal possible allies, Rou turns around and help him up the slope. Flutter pauses a moment, confused, but slowly reaches out and grasps his arm. As they reach the top, he tries to find something to say, but it's probably better to just leave it at that. At least they're all up there now.
The group presses on, up until Aldreric spots some Goblins up ahead. The inner chamber fills with a bright light, revealing 4 Goblins as holy fire erupts from their group. Flutter immediately jumps to his feet and flourishes his wand about, sending cascading waves of purple-ish blue firey light sweeping through the room.

“Well, I can’t see a damn thing, but...I’m going to assume that sound was Rou rushing in to slaughter more goblins.” Aldreric spoke up as much speaking to the whole party as to himself aloud. He turned to where he believed Kharnyl to still be, since he hadn’t yet engaged in the fight. “At this point a torch would do little more than present me as a target.” ((OOC: Loaniss confirmed Goblin’s fires were basically just hot coals, and not sources of light illuminating the area)) “Let me know if you’re dying. At the very least I am able to assist in last ditch efforts, when death is on the line.”
Aldreric stands there in the dark and attempts to ‘hear’ how the battle is going. Perception: 3
((OOC: True, figured Rou's attack would have likely taken him out though. I think the goblin's havent really withstood much, when we actually made successful attacks.))
Roucharges forward, with a demonic rage that matches his person, he cleaves the shaking goblin (G2) with his axe sending a grievous amount of a blood splattering onto the ground.
Aldreric's clue of what was going one was snuffed out with Rou devastating attack and he's left, once again, in the dark.
Kharnylslams his warhammer down on the goblin with the headband's head (G4) with a shattering force that rendered it lifeless...
After the flurry of attacks, a screech comes from up the back of the room...
"Hold on, hold on, HOLD ON! Or the human dies..."
Suddenly firepits, torches on walls and lamps flash to life. Another goblin with a silver ponytail appears, kicking a tied-up, bloodied human to the ground onto his knees on a stark ledge more than 10ft. up.
The goblin squawks, "Stop killing my squad! Let's have a deal; bring me the shit-for-brains bugbear Kulgar's head to Teemik and I'll let you have the human and walk away with no problems..."
The human is a man, middle-aged with patches of grey on the side of his black hair, his brown skin covered in dirt and blood. His face is twisted in pain, but with a mouth uncovered he manages to exclaim, "Don't trust the goblin!"
"Shut up!"Teemik, the silver-haired goblin, backhands the man. "Well, folks, what's it gonna be?"

Which route would you like to take?
Shaking his foot, in reaction to the soaked boot, Aldreric stops with the rest, noticing the potential path splits.
“Unless anyone else can make an argument to deviate from the course, see where our main avenue leads?” ((Continue north-right))
He strains to see if they can pick up any further noise from either of the tunnel splits. Perception 20
If Rou gives any indication of how the steep path to the Northwest, and the party doesn't object, Kharnyl will suggest ascending that route.
