Session 9 - Creeping along Corridors

No sign of the others, we decided to have a bit more of a look around. The passage with the grates ended in a blank wall, searching I found a lever.

Now I wonder what is does ? What I would like is another passage, what it probably does is open the grates. I warned the others, braced myself and pulled the lever.

Sure enough the grates opened. Unfortunately the lever now did nothing.

We hopped skipped and jumped it back to the entrance door, now it wouldn't open. We managed - I think it was Jeremy, to find another lever, I flicked it and the grates now closed. I listened at the door - I could hear footsteps. Two - count them two - guards marching up and back in front of the door.

We waited until we thought the nearest guard had his back turned and lept from behind the door (after opening it). Mumbles took down the nearest guard and Jeremy and I fired arrows at the other one.

Now to have a bit more of a look around. We followed the circular passage around - and found some stairs going up and a set going down. There appeared to be some more guards below, so we went up.

The stairs ended up at a trap door, it appeared we could open it, but there were people above - 2 officer types. Someone came and reported, apparently the castle is under seige. The others were doing a great job ! However it appeared too risky to go up. Time to go downstairs..
