We've gone down the stairs (after the snot check) and come to the western entrance of a large room with pillars. There's also lots of dirt mounds blocking our view though not quite packed to the ceiling (which is 15 feet high). The mounds are 8-10 feet high - looking like something burrowed up from below not from the ceiling (which looks fine). We all see some niches cut into the walls and a corridor leading east. As we move into the room the room to investigate, giant ants come out to attack.
INISH!
- Mersit: readies
- Ashen: readies
- Ant 1: attacks Taarn

- Taarn: overkills Ant1 with excessive damage
- Mersit moves and hears a sound on top of the southern mound. He climbs up and once on top, a secret door opens and some mites come through. The mites talk to each other but we do not recognize the language. As usual, we assume hostiles.

- Ashen hurts Mite1
- Taarn: attacks and damages Mite2
- Rupert: used sword and kills Mite3
- Esdar: attacks MIte2 and it drops dead
FINISH
Mersit and Rupert drop their backpacks climb through the secret entrances which is a tight tunnel (fine for mites). We come to a small room with no one inside but cheap mite tools (hammers and chisels). We go through another tunnel leading east that opens out to a raised section in the middle of stairs going north (up) and south (down). There's also an unhealthy amount of cobwebs around (slightly vibrating). M & R retreat back to the mounds to report.
Rupert takes out the shard to get our next direction: south and downward. Before we leave, we do a search of the "mound" room. We don't find anything significant but Esdar finds a secret door on the southern wall. Rupert goes in to check it out and finds that it leads to the cobwebby room that Mersit and Taarn had found earlier.
Taarn and Ashen check out the eastern corridor and see that it leads south as well. We decide to go that route instead of the secret door route. We move southward until we come to a landing at the top of a set of stairs. As we look around, we find another secret door leading to that cobwebby middle area. We continue on our original southern direction down the stairs (from which we can see an area open up with more pillars and webs in a trash strewn room).
We go down to the bottom of the stairs - we see more of the room. Taarn moves into the room, the webbing bugging him… as he moves in the room explodes with enemies! Mites and Spiders!
INISH:
- Mite1: climbs onto Spider1
- Taarn: Rages and attacks the spider (with Mite mount); killing the arachnid… The mite sinks to the ground
- Ashen: Moves up to dig through the goo and attacks the mite (crit!);
- Mite2: retreats to talk to Mite 7
- Esdar: Move up ; flings icicle at Mite1;
- Rupert: finally unleashes the fireball into a group of Mites; burning most of the mites dead and clearing the cobwebs
- Spider2: webs the Taarn but he avoids immobilization
- Mersit: uses Cloak to vanish and moves behind the spider.
- Taarn: Moves up and smashes the spider into goo; then swings at the last Mite… destroying it.
FINISH
After wiping up Mite-stuff off our weapons, we move to the west until we come to another set of stairs. We go down to the bottom and see it split into corridors going west and south.
Rupert discerns we need to go southwest so that was useful but we continue south for now. The webbing is getting thicker in these parts so Taarn leads the way by burning away the webbing with a torch. We eventually come to a large room where the webbing is so thick that even Taarn can't burn it all away. We light another torch so Mersit can help Taarn burn a path (a ten foot path) . We go forward another 30 feet when more spiders drop down surprising us. Ick.
Surprise: The spider bites Esdar who succumbs to STR poison; They also try to bite Rupert but they miss.
INISH
- Mersit: Attacks Spider1: misses and then hits for damage.
- Taarn; Moves into a web square; burning it away then dropping his torch; he hits Spider2 successfully.
- SPider2: attacks Ashen, misses then tries to escape but is hit by Taarn, killing it.
- Rupert: move back and fires some force missiles.
- Esdar: Charge off the lightning rod against Spider 1 hitting it to death.
FINISH
Esdar is still suffering from the poison and losing STR rapidly.
