The hunter's of the queen edge their way into the mist filled cavern, avoiding the struggling groups of fighting creatures, locked in their endless stife.

Underfoot, bones crunch and by the light of Orendal's lantern the three posse members see that the floor is littered with broken weapons and bits of humanoid armour. There is the occasional glint of silver through the mist, but there is no time to examine the hidden treasures...

At the far end of the cavern they find Gort waiting at the opening to a tunnel.

Astis growls, totally hidden by the mist

The bitch is up there....her rank smell offends my nose.

And without further ado the group heads into the unkown at a run

The passage quickly changes from grey to reddish orange and the floor is soft underfoot as rock is replaced by sand.

Its warm, uncomfortably so....

The men run, the lantern shakes and it is only Astis' quick warning that prevents the hunters running straight into the two large Rock lizards that are blocking their way, tails thrashing, tongues a blur within their nastily fanged mouths....
