He cautiously steps into the tunnel, straining to hear any more voices and looking for any doors.

Perception: 14

As Tagret explores the tunnel, he hears the sound of snoring coming from the other side of the northern wall but cannot find any doors.

"Well, Tagret? Find anything?"

Assuming that Tagret is still in the tunnel and has been joined, he whispers, "Listen to that, snoring to the north, but no door......any chance there might be a hidden entrance?  I can help look, but I am used to the mountains...not this"

If an Investigation check is made, Tagret seeks to Help to roll with advantage.

Saravena turns to the nothic, "Well friend any secret entrances you know that the others here do not?"

OOC: Looking for someone with a much better investigation check to come and look for secret doors....Tagret can help as instructed to add ADVANTAGE to your roll....unless our DM objects....

The nothic makes a noise from its throat that might be a grunt, before saying "No."

"Alright then," Saravena shrugs at the nothic's answer then turns to Tagret. "Let us see what I can find, I have always had a knack for finding things."

Investigation (with advantage from the help of Tagret): 10

Saravena also hears the sounds of snoring but fails to find any door.

"Allow me, I'll take a gander." Maerys slips past her compatriots and investigates.

8 (adv with help?)

Somewhat frustrated with the apparent scratching around not finding anything Tagret whispers "We're wasting time here....come on" and heads back up the tunnel and heads north on the eastern side, looking for other entryways.....

After the failed attempts of investigating the southern tunnel, you follow Tagret to the north, where you find a large chamber. This area has been furnished with dressed stone block walls and a flagstone floor. Several barrels are stored against the walls here, along with a number of empty caskets, straw for packing, hammers, pry bars, and nails.

"No sign of any Redbrands yet... strange. I wonder what they're keeping in these barrels?"

"I'll have a look at the barrels, you two see if there are any other ways out.  Going into those rooms across the way will result in fighting, which may raise an alarm, so that is the last resort, but it looks like we are going to have to get our hands dirty very soon"  He looks briefly to Rashana & Saravena to ensure that they understand his meaning

OOC: Sildar and Gundren remain with us I presume.  My thoughts on the rooms to west is that we would have to split the group with some heading to north passage, some to South and we will have to surprise whoever is there.  Maerys can probably try to cast sleep to take out whichever room we think has the most number of occupants.  Key is whether we are here to kill all of them or not....so just need to ask the question as to what are plan actually is with regards to the Red Brands.

(Yeah, they are will you but just following your lead, plus Bitenose although he was hired by Damian.)

As Tagret searches the barrels he finds barrels full of ale, apples, and other provisions. The latest barrel he searches reveals a collection of beaver pelts.

"I am always up for getting my hands dirty," Saravena replies raising her crossbow. "But if we come across anything interesting like our new nothic friend here promise me you won't mangle the body before I have a chance to take any samples."

While Tagret is looking through the barrels Saravena will look around the room for any other exits as Tagret suggested.

Investigation: 11

Saravena checks around the room looking for secret doors. She finds one secret door to the east, and one secret door to the west.

"Got two doors here Tagret," Saravena comments. "One to the west one to the east. Which way do we want to check first?"

(You could always split up)

(No no no, there is an entire song about not splitting the party)

After a moment of thought Saravena pulls out a coin from her purse, looks to the west door, looks to the east door, then flips the coin.

1 (even east, odd west)

"Lets go with this one," Saravena declares walking to the western door.
