The Underhill Mines

[Empusa Sesshi]

Despite his hands being bound in front of him, he manages to sketch a courtly bow. "Alric Rivenscar, at your service lady knight."

[Raleigh]

"Hello Alric. I am Ebony Grefel. How on earth could you tell I was a knight?"

[Empusa Sesshi]

He shrugs slightly. "The way you walked, how you move and carry yourself. If you study people as long as I have it's easy to tell."

[Raleigh]

"Well I must say I am flattered that I caught your attention. So why are they capturing people?" Judging from what she saw on her way in, she can guess but wants to confirm her suspicions before speaking them aloud.

[Shadowmaster]

Lyon wakes up in the cage and looks around. "What happened?" he asked.

[Empusa Sesshi]

He glances to the confused Lyon with mild amusement before looking back to Ebony. "I assure you I've no idea m'lady, I was brought in completely inconcious."

[Shadowmaster]

"hmmm, I wonder whats going to happen to us..." Lyon said.

[Raleigh]

"Most likely we will just be boiled alive and served as a meal. Or perhaps they are capturing sacrifices to some dark goblin god? I am sure we will find out if we wait around. Any chance either of you knows how to pick a lock?"

[Empusa Sesshi]

He chuckles a bit. "Of course I know how to spring a lock! If er...I had the proper tools. Which were confiscated from me upon my capture."

[Raleigh]

"Would a fang or a claw work well enough? I have no intention of being eaten tonight thank you very much."

[Empusa Sesshi]

He hmmms at the question. "It might work, if shaped properly."

[Shadowmaster]

lyon sat there, still in pain from the arrow wounds. "So, what exactly can we do to get out of here. Even if only one of us can get out and go get help." he said.

[Raleigh]

"Right then. Let me see here." Finds a rock and knocks out the claw in her right index finger, while muttering a few profanities from her people at the pain. "Alright there you go. If you can shape it or whatever and see if it can be used to get us out please.* Tosses the claw to their cell mate. "As for what we can do to get out of here, that is what we are working on. What good it does us depends upon several factors, not the least of which is luck. Anyone know about what time the goblins 'sleep'?"

[Empusa Sesshi]

Alric sighs and shrugs a bit, catching the claw. "Well..." He hides it behind his back as the doors open and a group of goblins march inside. They look from cage to cage, before settling on yours. They loop a rope around Ebony's neck, beginning to drag her out, the others keep their spears trained on Lyon and Alric.

[Raleigh]

"Oi, what are you doing? Let me go darn it all. I don't want to be eaten, I'm too young. I haven't even seen all the world yet." She tries to fight loose but doesn't quite succeed.
