Ok, In doing way too many calculations and readings on the Item spell and
the size of coins. Coins are generally the size of quarters. If the troops
take the time, the copper coins can be dealt with with a single item spell.
Are you planning to stay overnight or go back now? I have heard both
thoughts. I have not heard of anyone scanning for magic either. However, I
have learned about buying donkeys and mules for my mining operations.
Actions?

A few mule trips and some Item spells, along with the strength to help lug
things onto the mules and we could have a decent start on the higher value
items like the gold, gems. jeweler. We have sail cloth and ogre spears to
make travisis out of if we need, cutting it or rolling it in such a fashion
that it can later be used for partitions or small sails for the small boats
we have. I don't know that we have enough able seamen to crew 3 boats. Is
that what we are sending for? The few sailors we have and a boat or two to
haul some of this stuff by water? "
OOC How far is this cave from water we could actually use to boat loot to
the cove? If it is only 2 hours march back to the cove, we might a a one
way trip and a couple round trips via mule with portions of the loot before
Xander's spells expire.

Yes, or Holly could make the run. If all traps are dealt with it might be
better for Eregwen Air to play courier, because Carandolana's spell ability
might be needed.

It is about a two hour walk. So Cara could fly down quickly.

Xander examines his books and summarizes what he'll be able to do to help
carry people, corpses, and things:
"I can create four Floating Discs that can carry 700 pounds each for a
little over two hours. Hmm... or create 4 draft horses without gear or 4
mules with saddles and bags for nine hours.
I can manage three Strength spells that will increase carrying capacity
for three people for seven hours.
Finally, I can Itemize two piles of non-living things up to 14 cubic feet
for 28 hours.
My fourth order spells are rather limited for this task, I'm afraid."

Sorry, nothing in here was trapped. Not really an ogre thing. The
keys for the chests were on the ogres or Hilda. You find 20 barrels have
rotting flour, 2 flat stale beer, 2 fresh beer, 15 of coal, and 2 of oil.
One of the flour barrels has been opened. The six boxes have sail canvas in
them. Crates 1 – 10 small metal shields, 2 – a dozen spears each, 3 – 20
short swords with 10 extra scabbards, 4 – 8 footman’s flails; 4- 12 felling
axes with 12 extra handles; 3 – a dozen pair of hard high leather boots
(brown), 2 – 48 daggers with 12 extra scabbards; 2 – 24 footman’s picks.
Boxes, 1 – 100 beeswax candles, 1 12 ceramic vials (empty) packed in
sawdust; 1 – 23 balls of twine, 1 – a dozen pairs of soft low boots
(black), 1 – 8 shovelheads, and 28 blocks of red sealing wax along with two
of black. (1x1x6 inches each).
Among the coins are 43 sacks of copper each about 1200 coins more
or less.
In one chest, 500 small bags of 100 copper each. 132 green, 197
plain muslin, 6 blood stained, and 165 black bags. No idea the significance
of the colors, yet. In total, you will collect 808 platinum, from an iron
coffer in the girls' room, 2717 gold from Hilda's check. 588 random gold
coins from the bodies and a grand total of 250,099 copper (all total except
the 50,000 in small bags).
The small box under the chief's (Lori's) bed. The small wooden box
lined with grey silk contains 23 gems; Amethyst, 2 x Aquamarine, Black
Pearl, Bloodstone, Brown-green Garnet, Citrine, Coral, Deep Blue Spinel,
Eye Agate, Freshwater Pearl, 2 x Golden Pearl, Golden Yellow Topaz,
Hematite, Jade, 2 x Jasper, Moss Agate, Silver Pearl, Violet Garnet, White
Opal, and a White Pearl.
There are also 10 two handed swords, one in a scabbard and some
jewelry pieces as well. Silver necklace with green gems, a silver pendant
with rubies, wrought gold earrings, a gold brooch with topazes, a jade
brooch, silver earrings with blue gems, a wrought silver and gold crown
with matched earrings, (all in a cabinet), Lori's silver pendant, and a
silver ring with an emerald on Hilda's left ring finger. The dung heap is
full of dung.
You can get everything moved into the current storage area. It
will take most of a day plus a bit to clean up all of the coinage.
Sadly (for the DM) nothing bothers you during this time, but Sean
swears he hears steam venting through the earth. Holly might agree with him
but is less sure.
