Episode 7: Hush

Last we left off: The group of adventureres, in seeking a warband of gnolls, which had attacked the city of Alfield they were passing through on their way to Zadash. Began to track them to where they had retrieved a number of bodies, both dead and living of the civilians of the town and taken them with them. You eventually track them to an abandoned mine a number of miles away from the city to the northeast. You entered, narrowly missed a trap or two, managed to recover a couple of interesting items, delved off to the left side during the first divide of pathways, and came upon what appeared to be some sort of small ritual with a number of gnolls and some humanoid figure wearing bits of gnoll as an armor or cloak…
Laura:“Like you do…”
…doing a ritual-- after he had left along with the previously armored that you had battled during the incursion at Alfield. You tore into a number of hyenas and the gnolls that remained within the chamber and, upon defeating them, took a moment to take a breath, kind of get your bearings before hearing a muffled boom in the distance, what seemed to be some sort of a low vocalization, some cackling, and eventually the scream of a woman saying,“No, my baby!” you began to run and give chase and that is where we’re picking up this week. Grabbing your weapons and keeping your mettle about you, you charge further down the tunnel. The shaft curves to the right…
{Sam reacting with melodramatic shock}
Laura:“The shaft curves to the right, y’all.”
Travis:“It’s usually to the left, but whatever.”
Sam:“Not from her perspective.”
…The tunnel continues in a wide spiral before eventually snaking a bit before sharply turning to the right. The tunnel straightens out before emerging into a chamber of mixed, natural rock walls and simple stone work. Two other tunnels mark this chamber as a Y intersection or, like a second common room. Similar to the one that you originally encountered when you entered the mine. Tables and stools are strewn about the area, with a pair of hyenas currently picking at junk for scraps. You can see bits of meat that are being dragged across the ground by them about 20 feet off to the left. Two thick natural pillars of rock currently stand as load-bearing portions of the chamber, breaking the open space, while a crumpled section of the floor drops into a pit below. Two closed doors, to the left of where you’re looking into it, are guarded by a skeletal gnoll and two standard gnoll warriors, one of which has apparently pulled a small child from one of the doors. The sound of muffled cries coming from beyond the closed door. Four other gnolls rush from within the chamber into the right tunnel exiting on the opposite side.
