I thought we'd stay overnight to gain access to some healing before leaving
and gain gain greater cartage abilities. What time of the day is it right now?
That might make a big difference in people's thoughts on what we do. Elmore
can do Detect Magic when he regains the spell along with some Cure Light, Cure
Serious Wounds. Glyph of Warding could be used, but if it is bigger than 50 Sq
Ft for each one it gets expensive. (2000 gp powdered diamond per casting and
only lasts until it is discharged, which wasn't how Captain Golden's spell
worked, though he may have had someone with enough juju to cast Permanency on
it. ) Putting the loot we don't carry in a small enough area far enough back
that the glyphs don't hurt the loot may be workable as the place may still
smell bad enough that most natural animals avoid it.
Just my two coppers worth.

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?

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.
