(Alright! We're all here for once, so let's continue the story.)

Makoru took up the rearguard as usual, slipping into the shadows and vanishing without another word. If Jack hadn't seen him step out of the light, Makoru would've been invisible, save the dim red glow that surrounded his blade. He brought his attention back to the earthy tunnels of the cave as they walked, keeping his shortsword in one hand and a knife in the other.

Even with Claudius' magelight illuminating the path ahead, it was difficult to see anything outside of the protective circle of light. Tunnel after tunnel sprawled ahead of them, forming a labyrinth that would probably have taken years to escape, if not for distant echoes of voices or movement that guided them along. Jack shuddered to think what kind of abominations would make such noises and sent a quick prayer to Stendarr in hopes of avoiding such foul creatures.

Jack's prayers were answered by a loud shriek that echoed from a tunnel to their left. A shrieking wraith shot forward from the darkness, blade poised to impale Niall with an elven blade. Not far behind was the silhouette of a different figure, vaguely humanoid but definetly not friendly.
