Presently you have a dead Bugbear and four Dead Redbrands, lots of general goods in barrels and crates about the room and a newly discovered secret door. What do you all do next?
The Bugbear wears Hide Armor and carried a shield. The armor is in poor condition but theShieldis ok. For weapons, he used aMorning StarandJavelin, both in good condition. He carried 8 gp and 4 pp a pouch. The Redbrands all have Studded leather on and dual wield shortswords. Only one set of the studded leather is usable but all of the shortswords are in good condition. Total among them are 28 g, 24 sp and 60 cp.
The barrels contain salted pork and beef, flour, sugar, apples, and ale.
The Cistern appears to be collecting rain water and seems clean and clear.
"This equipment is not really my style and I cannot claim to have earned a bounty yet; I shall refresh myself while you decide who is taking what"
Prentiss takes a drink from the cistern and checks his waterskin is full, then enjoys a light snack from the barrels while trying to keep an eye on all doors.
When the group is ready to move then he is happy to take any position required in the marching order, second by default.
Loren cleans his knives briefly and looks around. "We should let the townsfolk know about this place, once we get back - looks like they've been stockpiling down here for weeks, at least. Lots of food, anyway. I wonder who they were feeding? So! Through from where the bugbear came, or back through that other door I found?"
You'll find that the door that the Bugbear came through was to the ruins of the upper house and into the Kitchen which has the closest exit to the outside and back to town. There hasn't been any traffic up there at all in apparent years and all seems to going below. Here is a map of what you've done so far, mostly...it gives away where that other door leads to, but might help. (I'm sorry if you are using your phone to see this, it will line up badly.
"Well I suppose we should forge ahead if we hope to clear this den" says Prentiss, casting a glance around the room.
"Let's see if I can get my hands on one of these creatures myself"
Prentiss casts Light on one of his daggers and makes for the newly discovered corridor.

"Alright, yes, let's move on..." Sheyla agrees and then says, "But cautiously. I"m running low on spells and am not very good with swords..."

"Well I suppose we should see if any of my hosts had the keys to the kingdom"
Prentiss searches the bodies.
"Did you find anything useful in these crates?"

Velshir doesn't feel a need to take any of these things. He's ready to proceed to an area they haven't been yet.
Loren cleans his knives briefly and looks around. "We should let the townsfolk know about this place, once we get back - looks like they've been stockpiling down here for weeks, at least. Lots of food, anyway. I wonder who they were feeding? So! Through from where the bugbear came, or back through that other door I found?"
"I must admit to being curious as to what would be behind a secret door; I say we look into what's worth hiding by these miscreants" says Prentiss.
"We've come to far to stop now. Lets finish what we've started and get out of here." Joshua will move toward where the bugbear came thru.
Prentiss will follow Joshua.

Let’s go back to the nothic chasm room and head upper left
Here is the room where you encountered the Nothic. All heading to upper left? (Please let me know if pictures do not appear)
Top left is good for me, pictures look great 👍
(Top left it is!)
The corridor bends slightly and goes down to a lower hallway ending in doors on the north and south walls.
Velshir listens at the door
If there is room, Prentiss will listen at the other door (south?).
If not, he will stay alert with dagger drawn.
@velshir north or south door and perception check please.
