    And in response of getting hit yet again, Ruvora just misses yet again. Nothing makes sense anymore. Suddenly, she has become a scrub among scrubs, unable to fight even goblins. She is glad her family cannot see her right now, though she has no doubt her beloved goddess Haela sees the full extent of her shame.

    "How are these creatures still alive?" he thinks to himself. "Ogres and exploding casks fall before us yet these stand?" He sends one one more bolt of mocking disdain towards Dearie's dance partner. At last, the goblin squeals and, holding its head, falls over.

    Being the last man standing, and hurt to the nines, the goblin is going to try to burst through the door and run, hoping to avoid any last minute hits on the way out.

    With the fight over, Ruvora seems to be... vibrating at her poor performance (whether or not she just clobbered the last goblin). So she gets to searching the gobbos (as a way to "take a break"), then she is bound towards the next room to redeem herself right quick!

    Dearie brushes off a spot on the floor and sits down, shaking just a little. "Whew. These guys aren't a pushover." She looks to see how Morrik is taking the results of the battle.

    Perhaps a slip of the mind, but Morrik still waits behind at the entrance stairs, in deep hopes that he hasn't made a mistake on way or the other.

    Indeed the combat has concluded. The room is now quiet but the crackle of the fire and signs of relief and still stinging ache.

    Searching the room, it is rather barren. The rucksacks are just that: ragged, filthy sleeping bags that this first guard slept on/in. There aren't much of anything for a nook or cranny to hide valuables in.

    Likewise, the guard here are wearing very worn, very tattered leather skins, fit almost appropriately to a goblins body, but seemingly tight and bursting at the seems for the hobgoblins. Their weapons, while worn, are in working condition, especially the crafty hand crossbows the small gobs were using. Where did these come from? Their workmanship is starkly better than anything you've encountered out of these muck dwellers.

    Now the path branches again: the door that the goblin tried to open in escape now hangs slightly ajar, with a faint blue light glowing from behind it, and the path to the north, still very much an unknown.

    Nymphaea steps over to some of the equipment one of the goblinoids was carrying. She reaches down and picks a crossbow up, carefully examining it. "Curious. Are these creatures normally such exquisite craftsmen? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with their culture and practices," she ponders aloud. She tosses the weapon over her shoulder. "Regardless, I believe there is more work to done. After you, Miss Ruvora." She bows slightly and gestures to the next room.

    Ruvora peers at the crossbow that is being held up. "Hell no," she confirms the unspoken suspicion. After looking the room over a bit (mumbling something about having fought like various forms of excrement) and returning to some state of zen (said zen involving getting right back to clobbering for that runback), she heads straight to the next... blue-glowey room.

    Zar snarled quietly, trying to avoid attention for his injuries because of what a close examination would reveal. a few minutes quiet would scab over his injuries, at least, though it would do little for the state of his disguise.

    Seeing a moment to breathe, the bard begins to work out the soreness from battle and look over the rest of the party. "Is anyone in need...uh Ru are we...Nym?...Should we...uh?" Looking to others, seeing they are mostly intact, he follows those eager to engage, concerned he might miss a good story.

    With a firm grasp, Ruvora pushes through the door. She is met with another sharp turn of the corridor, and around it, a seemingly free floating mural that glows iridescently. It seems to flicker with light as it shows various scenes.

    Ruvora squints at the shifting mural. This seems... like a strange place for something like this. The funnel-like room opening towards the mural really does not help as she stands at the corner, glancing along the sides.

    "Feelin' peery about the art show," she lets the others know. Maybe it is just being generally suspicious about magic shenanigans in random rooms for no good reason. She does try to see what the changing images show.

    "Well, there's an impressive creation, full of time, devotion, and not a little craft. I will certainly be impressed if this is a goblin work." Staring at the floating mural, Aeren first tries to figure out how it is floating there, and then attempts to interpret if there is anything in the mural of historical importance.

    All attempts to interact with the floating mural seems futile.

    The image seems to show a decaying image. First a grand castle of unknown location or origin. Gradually, the image goes from a calming blue glow to a dreary grey one. The castle becomes windswept and decays, stone walls eroded to merely piles of rock, and what was a beautiful courtyard has devolved into a quite barren swamp.

    The waters, murky and filled with muck, bubbles slightly.

    Ruvora scratches her chin, looking at the mural. Bit of lost history, then. With nothing else there, Ru leaves the bit of art and history in peace, heading through the western door.

    Through the door the path follows west, then again north, opening east into a room. The further you turn down this corridor, the more one thing becomes apparent: It is pitch black.

    The mote of light, dim at first, shines brightly when reaching its destination, which is met in kind with a shrill shreek and a gruff "ah hells, why so bright?!" The room is already occupied by a pair of... well. They are short, shorter than any dwarf. Definitely no facial hair. And their skin is as pale grey as the eeriest night sky.
