Cinta follows closely behind Mal.

Quote from Gorthmorg >>

Mal nods, and goes to each door in turn and listens.

Perception check at the north door: 22  

Perception check at the door in the corner of the south wall: 22  

If nothing is heard at either door, he'll slowly open each door and look in, but not enter. 

Malambing heard nothing at either door and carefully opened each one to look within.

Northern Door: Rows of iron manacles hang from the walls and stud the floors here, enough of the bindings to contain at least two dozen human prisoners. In those bare patches of wall not conquered by the mold, crude pleas to the gods in the old Sanskriti tongue can be seen scratched into the stones. Here and there, other prayers for succor are etched in Lokanan signs.

SE Door: This cell is appointed much as the other, but the manacles and bindings are replaced by locking leather collars, all of them very small in diameter- some no larger than four or five inches in width. There are random scrapings on the walls that might have been crude pictures long ago, but no words.

Krikoris continues to examine the jar, pondering whether to open it, take it, or come back for it later.

 The jar reveals none of its secrets.

"If you are not going to open it Krikoris then I will, its not going to tell you anything if you just look at it" Jupp will lean against the wall as he is saying this while he waits for the all clear

Mal watches Jupp. He's curious as well, but he's not quite brave enough to open it himself.

Krikoris shrugs, "I didn't really want to cause offense to the locals by opening it, but if you'd like to, you're more than welcome."

Jupp will put his hand out for it "I would think it would be more of an offence if we left it abandonde down here"

 Jupp took the jar and opened it, as the seal broke there was a slight pop of air and he peered within......teeth, human teeth, thousands of them; adult, child, molars, incisors......

Ignoring the jar Khutulun examined the rooms Mal had opened, " Whoever was held here died long ago.....though the southern cell disturbs me greatly. If you've finished messing with that old thing we should move on before something bad finds us."

"Mal have you heared of any religion that collects teeth?" Jupp will lay a small cloth on the ground and gently pour the contents onto it just incase something is hidden the bottom

 Jupp poured the thousands of teeth out on the table, they soon overwhelmed the small cloth  and spilled across the ancient wood.

Among the teeth there was a single one that was not ivory, white or yellow.......but pearlescent...in fact it was not a tooth at all but a white pearl the size of his fingernail.

"I remember hearing stories as a child of a spirit that would come and take children's milk teeth once they fell out, but would leave a coin as payment. This seems much more ...sinister, if I'm being honest."

Wrinkling her nose up at the sight, "This is some kind of perversion that is fitting in the basement of a murderous villain. Let as continue and not dwell."

Krikoris looks around with a slightly absent minded expression, "Somehow this place reminds me of home. Anything that entered belongs to the lord and master, and they never let anything go, no matter how valuable, sinister, or insignificant."

Jupp will take the pearl and pocket it and follow after the others

 "I am aware of no fae that accepts teeth as a form of offering," replies Cinta.

Uce shrugs. "When I was little there was a fae who accepted teeth as an offering and in exchange they leave you copper pieces. Made some copper that way. It stopped when I left home." 

Krikoris glances around the room, "I very much doubt these were offered, nor was anything else here. Come, let's keep moving, we are on some kind of schedule aren't we? Anyone know what time it is?"

Mal leads the way further in, being careful and keeping his eyes peeled for danger.

Stealth: 22

Perception: 8

 Mal lead the others along a corridor some 30m long which ended in a bare square room, long corridors lead off north and south and a stairwell leads up opposite where the came in..
