"Well," Saravena sighs loading another bolt into her crossbow. "That was a little unexpected. Are you alright big guy?"
After giving Tagret a quick once over to make sure he is not too badly injured Saravena ducks around him to enter the prison chamber. Just to make sure all bases are covered Saravena tries the cell doors to check if they are locked, if they are are she gives an acknowledging sigh then turns first to the pile of discarded clothes before checking the pockets of the two bandits
Saravena tests the doors on the cell doors which causes the doors to rattle against the locks. The locks look simple enough to be picked. The captives look a little calmer now that the two bandits are dead, but they still look intimidated with a look of concern spread across their faces.
The pile of discard clothes does no reveal anything of interest. However, there seems to be about a dozen different outfits of different sizes. The clothes are covered in dirt and smell of sweat.
"I... I think they're from other captives," the boy says. "Ones kept here before we arrived."
Checking the bodies of the bands also doesn't reveal much of use. Neither of them were carrying the keys for these cells. However, Saravena does find a couple of gold pieces, four in total, and their short swords.
The only door out of this room, is the door that you have just come through to the west which leads back to the crypt.

"If there is nothing here, lets press on, we will come back to release them, stealth was the plan and we have done little of that...let us just hope our luck holds"
And with that he heads toward the door to the South and listens for a second before opening it to peer through if nothing is heard and see what is there before passing through the door - Axe at the ready now!!

"We all will have to be a little more careful," Saravena nods. After finding nothing of great importance on the bodies or in the pile of clothes Saravena gives a light sigh, "Well they did not have any useful aside from a few coins and their blades, so I agree let us press on."
Following Tagret's lead Saravena keeps her crossbow at the ready as they move forward.
"Wait!" the older woman calls as you all leave the room. "You're not just going to leave us here, are you?"
However, you decide to press on, heading to the other door. Listening at the door, Tagret hears nothing on the other side. Opening the door, you find a long hallway heading east. Thick dust covers the flagstones of this sombre hallway. The walls are decorated with faux columns every ten feet, and at the end of the hall, you can see a gap in the southern wall that you could pass through.

"Don't worry as soon as we find the keys to the cells we will be back to save you," Saravena responds with a wave as she leaves the room.
Once the group enters the hallway Saravena, remembering the hidden doors she had found in the other room, will start looking for other hidden doorways in the hall.
Looking down the hall, the obvious path is through the gap to the South, so he pushes ahead again, keen to not give anyone more time than necessary to prepare.

Saravena looks down the hall but doesn't see anything amiss. She doesn't notice any signs of hidden doors.
As Tagret makes his way down the hall. However, as he gets about halfway down the hall, the floor gives way underneath him. It's a trap!
(Tagret make a DC 15 Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If you succeed you catch the edge of the pit trap. If you fail, you fall 20 feet taking 2d6 damage and land prone.)

OOC: Given that we have lost any healing capability, I am thinking that this sortie has a real chance of unravelling, depending on what happens in the next few minutes shall we just cut and run?
As Tagret lies there at the bottom of the pit, the door behind Saravena and Maerys, that you all just walked through, opens. Turning around you see a man standing there in the doorway. However, he doesn't look like he is part of the Redbrand, at least he is not wearing their normal uniform.
"Tagret!" Saravena shouts as she spots Tagret fall, then takes off towards the hole only to stop when she hears the door open spinning on her heels she raises her crossbow at the new intruder. Slowly while keeping her crossbow trained on this new possible enemy Saravena continues her movement towards the hole, trying to get a glance at Tagret to see if he was injured in his fall.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Yet again surprised by the world of civilised man, Tagret picks himself up from the fall and looks back up towards the others, concerned that something else is taking their attention away.
In order to get back up he will attempt to climb the side walls. (Athletics 10) whilst the others are talking/engaging the newcomer.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"And where are you from Misha?" Saravena questions not lowering her crossbow. "We can not be too careful, you see you have found us in an building controlled by a group who do not look fondly upon us. You seem peaceful enough to come to us without your weapon drawn but how are we to tell you are not actually part of said group that operates out of this building?"
Saravena gives Misha a hard look trying to gage whether the man was telling the truth or not, then casts a quick glance at her companions to see what their thoughts were on the matter.
Misha states flatly "Waterdeep, The house of Strombringer" He looks your group over "Any of you wounded?" He moves his hand to his neck and pulls out a symbol of Mystra "I have some healing skills"
As Tagret emerges from the hole his eyes shift between the newcomer and the his destination further down the passage, hissing "Keep your voices down we need to move" almost dismissing the arrival as he cautiously moves ahead, using his axe to prod the ground in front, concerned for another trap.
