The next room was Executioner’s quarters, and they have not been reassigned since his died in the first assault. A search finds nothing but a huge compound bow that only a character of 18 strength can use. The next room are servants quarters, and some guzaks are huddled in a corner, with no weapons of any kind. Alzar orders them to leave, and they do. There is nothing in the room.
They arrive back at the kitchen and thecorpses of the wereboars and Icar are still here. A more thorough search is ordered and nothing additional is found. The next door reveals a cook’s quarters, and the female orc is still hiding under the bed. Alzar ties her up and gags her, so that she cannot inform anybody that they are still in and where they are. They also find the wereboar’s quarters with a large boar here. Its on a chain, and they lead it around while searching the chamber, find nothing of value, and return it and lock the door.
They find a larder with nothing of value. The second to last door is a storeroom, and stairs going down. The final door appears to be someone’s quarters, and there is a simple bed in the northwest, and wine, chess board and carved wooden chest. There is a door on the south wall with a lock on it. The furniture is bolted and the chess board has raised grid on it – probably the room of the blind officer. They search and find nothing. Alzar tries the closet door and a curse comes through, demanding its release. Alzar grabs the gauntlets of dexterity and succeeds, barely, at picking the lock. The door opens and Alzar makes an INT roll at 50%. He makes it (rolled a 3) and sees the body of a medusa and avoids her glare and shuts the door. A perfect guard for a blind man.
She does not push on the door or anything, so she is probably chained in there. Alzar orders everyone to stay out, closes his eyes, switches to the ogre strength gauntlets and opens the door and uses Blind Fighting to sense his opponent.
He wins inti and axes her for 19 damage. She misses him. He wins init and kills her easily. He waits, and hears and senses nothigjn else, orders Megala in and looks through his yes – nothing.
400 to Alzar only.
.
There is an iron chest on the floor. Inside is:
2000 gp
10 jet pieces 100 gp each
10 matches silver and opal bracelets – 200 each
There is a locked small brass coffer and Alzar takes it out and tries to pick the lock, but its quite complex. Failure.
(Inside is Potion of Undead Control, and Pot of Diminution, Cleric scroll with Cure Serious, Purify Food and Drink, Feign Death, Cure Light Wounds, Resurrection and Wind Walk; Ring of Warmth and Quaal’s Feather Token. )
There are also directions to the specialist quarters downstairs and where the secret doors are to the treasure in that room.
