((Anything else? There are two stairways down, one at the south and one at the north.))

"Ealu says they'd appreciate the rock, thanks Lurn."

((I think we'd decided to check the stairs near where we came down first, but to consult the golem beforehand?))

((Lurn has the golem but I figure he would be okay if it was summoned if someone has some questions for it now.))

((Yeah, anyone who wants to summon it can just go ahead.))

Lurn casts Light on a rock, putting it somewhere relatively out in the open. "It will go out after an hour, but we'll try to come back by then to replace it."

Lurn puts his shield aside and gives Ealu's snout a rub, "I'll take that to be thanks and urging us to be back on time."

She nods with her big head and then moves so you can scratch her neck instead.

Following her movement, the large man starts scratching at her neck, hand moving in large motions, "You know, my homeland is quite proud of its cavalry, but I don't think I've ever had the fortune to be near such an expressive horse. The gods have truly blessed you by sending her, Kroshav."

((At least, I'm pretty sure from what I vaguely remember Balyon was big into cavalry and elite horses.))

((Yep, horses are a big deal in Balyon. They have the best cavalry and horses in general. Ealu is clearly a step beyond even that!))

"Yeah, she's pretty great!"

He scratches Charlie in his favorite spot behind the right ear so he doesn't feel too left out.

Charlie snorts appreciatively.

'Ok, which stairway do we want to do first, there is the clean one we first found, and a dusty one in back?"

"We can probably assume the dusty staircase isn't going to change. Even though things down the cleaner one is probably pretty unlikely to change either, I suggest we go that way."

((The horses are in the very middle, west side of the archives so they are technically equidistant from both stairways down. The difference being that it is easier to get to the back ones (dusty ones) because the wider path along the outside edges of the shelves hasn't caved in, if that helps you decide.))

"Ok, let's go check those stairs out then." He will move forward to get to the stairs and then state, "Give me a minute to sneak down without any light and see what I can see from the bottom of the stairs. I'll be right back."
He will sneak down the stairs and stop right at the bottom to take a quick look and see if anything is moving down there. No exploring any further at this point, just making sure the others light sources aren't going to alert something right away."

Jaq sneaks down the stairs and turns the corner and continues down to the floor below. He notes the floor is still clean here and that like the floor above there halls going right and left but unlike the floor above there is also a hallway straight ahead. He can just make out several darker patches on the walls both ahead and to the sides he would take to be doorways. To his left he can also see another stairway down.

Jaq moves quietly back upstairs.
"I see nothing moving down there either. Just three hallways, forward, left and right and some doorways in the halls. And more stairs leading down even further. Looks safe enough at the moment."
