“Yes, it might well be tomorrow before I could post glyphs of warding enough

friends with in the coming days or weeks. Living in such filth. “
OOC Don’t suppose the dung/ garbage heap was checked for loot via Alga . That
might be best burned in case there’s critters that might pop out amongst us,
but maybe do that after we’ve picked up our initial pile of loot.

Elmore has Sean's horn, which is fine as he will be with the wounded and
former captives.That group will watch the eastern entrance from within the
caves. As for watching the northern entrance, well, Sean figures that the only
thing we know is around, or might be around, would likely squash any sentry we
left there, so any sentry we do leave there should only watch, not engage.
That being the case, why waste the sentry? Unless someone feels strongly about
it.

Ok, should I assume that Holly will always take the lead as trap detector and
unlocker or will she and Cara trade-off? Are you leaving a sentry at the
northern entrance? Who will watch the eastern entrance? Where is Sean's horn at
this point?

I presume that the eastern entrance is closer to home. Sean suggests that we
bring the former captives to the chamber with all the boxes, crates and
barrels, lay out some continual light stones, and start bringing the loot to
that spot. We have two sets of keys, and one might open the box in the ogre
chief's room (on the chest). We should split into two groups: those caring for
the wounded and freed captives (and cataloging the loot in the crates, barrels
and boxes), and those going back through the caves sweeping up the ready loot.
Sean recommends that Elmore and his guards remain, as well as Ahearn and
Xander. Holly and Carandolana will be the lock openers. Sean and Alga will
sweep for caches of precious metals. Hagar, Rarmuck and Johnny Mac should come
along as the muscle.

Vision probably relates to a later date but I know little or nothing about what
he actually dreamed.” Elmore

Sean looks around. "It will take us days to ship this stuff back to the Cove.
But it might be worth it. We should open the crates, boxes and barrels. We'll
need to get our carpenters to rig a few sledges and travois. We have ogre
weapons, that cauldron, all the loot we left around, naked two handed swords.
One more two handed sword in a scabbard, the stuff from the Hag's bedroom, the
stuff from the ogre chief's quarters...."

Ok, as you move south, you will go through the area with darkness towards the
entrance and then the area to the south and then to the west where Hagar, Cara,
Johnny Mac, and Xander made it before backing up. That area assumes some sort
of illumination. The hallway is stacked up with 21 crates, 6 boxes, and 41
barrels if someone counts. South of that on a parallel path is a smaller room
with a massive straw bed, a smaller straw bed and a cooking area with a large
black caldron. Those two area will merge back into an area with six stumps
turned into chairs, eight large spears laying against the southern wall and a
small firepit. The area leads to a passage west that gets much smaller. Barely
wide enough for an ogre to enter and it gets more slender after 20'. It goes
about 150' feet and appears to end. The party feels that they have exhausted
the caverns at this point.
