Intro: Koriand'r, Ihliel, Aella

[CyMage]

Holding the torch up higher to get a better view, Aella checked the door.

[Trunkyboy]

Ihliel keeps only his head in the room for now.

[Brian]

The far door is currently closed, but seems unimpressive.  The wine-racks probably only continue another room or so.

Probably.

When thinking about it, an unseen force bumps Ihliel into the room, as the door to the stairwell slams shut with an alarmingly loud "BANG!", and malicious laughter echoes at the edges of hearing for a heartbeat.

[Trunkyboy]

Ihliel would have let out the mother of all squeaks, but said squeak had taken a death grip on Ihliel's uvula and refused to go out in the open where the presense laid.  Ihliel himself is best described as one big shuder with little shudder babies.

[Brian]

A breeze no one can feel causes the torch in Kory's hand to flicker, but it regains its strength shortly, revealing a somewhat grimy room with cobwebs, and empty wine-racks.

[CyMage]

Not expecting it to work, but deciding to give it a try anyways, Aella tries the door the group entered through.

[Brian]

As expected, the door is stuck fast in place.

[CyMage]

"Don't just stand there.  Let's look for a way out."

Aella wanders around the outside of the room looking for another door, but also idly scans the wine racks too.

[Trunkyboy]

Ihliel manages to shudder his way in small circles along the room.

[Brian]

The room is dark, and a bit creepy, but the wine-racks are empty.  Except for a single bottle, which has long-ago cracked and leaked out, at any rate.  There's two doors.  The solid looking door that the demons came in from, and the flimsy looking door ahead of them.

Though, come to think of it, the solid-looking door looked pretty flimsy from the other side.

[CyMage]

Aella motioned Ihliel towards the second door.  "Hey, big boy.  Think you can get this open?"

[Trunkyboy]

Ihliel looks confused at the 'big' comment, but he shudders his way to the door and gives it a catious poke.

[Brian]

It creaks open slowly, revealing a very familiar looking room.  Three demons can be seen inside, one of them peeking through the far door curiously, though Ihliel can only see his back....

If Aella looks back towards the door everyone came in through (which is now ... curiously ... open), it only reveals the staircase again.

[Trunkyboy]

Ihliel looks even more confused.  At least his shudders have stopped, for now.

[CyMage]

"What the Heaven?" curses the demoness as she goes back to the first door again and checks through it.
