"This place is being watched! lets find Red" remembering what the Mayor said even though he would enjoy the battle he didn't like the Idea of being overwhelmed
Hearing the results of the interrogation, Celadrim speaks with a tone of disgust in his voice.
"As I have spoken, this dragon cult is a threat to balance of the natural world and the free folk who dwell in it. I fear for the prospect of letting them gain too much power. We must do what we can to stop them, and it sounds like finding this camp is of the utmost importance. I think it should not be too difficult, as we have the assistance of my corvid friend," the elf says while pointing to the raven that's sitting on his shoulder.
"We can swiftly make our way in the direction where we think it is, and then I can send him up into the sky to scout for its exact location and layout. This will certainly give us at least some advantage."
"Before we find this camp it is important to find anyone that has not made it to the keep. If we happen to run across more of these cultists then we put them to th blade." Frilneiros say as he grips his axe and goes to find Escobert.
"I wanted to know if you had suggestions of where the people would be able to hide from these cultists? I know that the temple was mentioned." Frilneiros says, keeping his eyes on the dwarf.
"There is a tunnel that was constructed to get water from the stream without being seen, unfortunately, or fortunately it's never been used since this is the first time we've been under siege. But it's probably the only way in or out through that ring of raiders without a fight." He offers you a key from his belt keyring. "This is the key to the two gates of the tunnel. Though I don't know what state the tunnel is in. I pray the gods will lend you favor." He gives you directions to the inner tunnel gate.
"Aye, let us be on our way then, an' find out what be waitin' fer us in the dark," Gus grins at the thought of relieving more of these kobolds and cultists of their wasteful and hate-filled lives. He checks his javelins and hammer and shield and with a last look out the window, turns to the rest. "The goons be attackin' the temple. I hate temples an' churches but that ain't make me go an' lootin' 'em!" The dwarf sees some beauty in man-made structures but more often than not, it serves to mask unpleasantness that no one wants to acknowledge. Looking to Wolfstine, the dwarf raises an eyebrow: "Do any of us need the fire stick? I can be seein' in the dark, laddie."
Celadrim says, "As much as I prefer to travel above ground in the open air, using the tunnels to gain free passage past those raiders would allow us to conserve energy and resources that can be concentrated in finding the military camp. "
"I do not need a fire stick, master dwarf, but thank you. Now let us be off so that we can get this over with."
With that, the elf begins following the others into the tunnel.
Harbinger strike up a torch and looks longingly towards the sky before following the group down into the tunnels. Being away from the sea for so long has him testy and ready for a fight, but he knows the groups choice of stealth is a good one.
Frilneiros shoulders his axe as he moves to follow the rest of the of the group. The golden scaled kobold seems clearly angered as he seems ready to rush ahead as if that was what he would normally do in such a situation.
You walk down into the cellar of the keep and spot the door that's been stacked with crates and boxes. You easily clear the door and use the key on the locked door. It's a stiff lock from disuse but it turns and opens with a little bit of effort. The tunnel is obviously unused, the webs of house spiders choke the walls and ceiling but they do not look to be a hindrance to your progress. The air is musty with an occasional breeze, you hear a faint squeaking of mice or rats.
"Hmmm, cheery feel to this place, eh? Okay, who wants to lead the way? Best be careful - in me experience, secret tunnels only good fer a couple things, an' not much more. When the fergettin' gets good, lots a things take up residence, if ye get me meaning!" Gus laughs grimly and nudges the kobold with his elbow.
Gus doesn't mind taking the lead but thinks that perhaps someone a bit, ahem, lighter on their feet might be better suited...
"I'm quite happy with my place in the middle, as I don't make a very good pincushion," Celadrim says with a grin. It's the first time he's smiled since this entire ordeal began with first sight of the dragon earlier. "However, I am taller than both Gus and Frilneiros, so I'm not sure how much protection they will offer me should any arrows sail over their heads.
Looking to Wolfstine, the elf adds, "Because that's what dwells in dark, damp places. And if that's the worst we can expect down here, then we should be thankful. I am no fan of rats myself, but there are far more terrifying things that also live in places like this. Let's hope we don't encounter any of them..."
"I doubt They'll tell us anymore dwarf. I'm good with with what we got" Wolfstine thinks such an army would be easy to track
After his short rest, he fills itching to get back in the fight.

With his bright red hair, it is easy to spot Escobert. As you approach he greets you, "ho! You have a look of purpose, do you seek my assistance?"
"I wanted to know if you had suggestions of where the people would be able to hide from these cultists? I know that the temple was mentioned." Frilneiros says, keeping his eyes on the dwarf.
"From what I heard from Harbinger, the cult is attacking a temple."
He points towards where Harbinger said
"We need to get out of the Keep unseen so we can go help those hold up there and not wade through a host of enemies."

Wolfstine takes the key eyes with gratitude
"We'll do what we can Just point us that way"
He looks to the Dragon born
"Best light a torch"
He lights one himself even though he doesn't need one and follows Reds directions

"Rats....Why did it have to be rats?"
Wolfstine looks concerned
"I'll take the lead with Frilneiros. Harbinger.. How about guarding the back?"

"Agreed? I'd like your input if you think there is a better order"
