"If we can't go past this doorway unseen, then we'll have to investigate," Talia muses out loud. "And if, as seems likely, there are goblins inside, then we may as well deal with them now as later. In fact, I'd like to return back down to the last doorway and deal with the goblins down there as well - after all, that's why we came to this place. Besides, I imagine that one way or another we'll be leaving here in a hurry, so best to do what we came for now rather than later. What say the rest of you?"
"I am not liking having enemies behind me. I would rather finish these off before going upstairs further. I will never get past the doorway without someone noticing me." He waits for the rest to offer their opinions and decide on what to do.
Ivan: If the consensus is to attack the goblins, then Pral will gladly lead the way, rushing the room for a surprise attack if possible. It's highly unlikely that the party can 'sneak' past the doorway, unless someone wishes to risk a peek first, the goblins may be further back than the light source. If we can make out the noise of the goblins over the bird noise, how many do we think there are?
The type of light spilling from the stone archway gives Med pause. He thinks to himself, the goblins encountered outside the inn didn't seem to require much light if any to see and hunt, the fact that the light also bears no resemblance to daylight or torchlight is a bit concerning.
Against his better judgement and the uneasiness the spider king gives him, Med finds himself waving at the spider king to come closer to him. He has questions and the mad king who has lived in these ruins for quite some time might have the answers. Once the spider king is close enough to speak to without concern of being overheard by the occupants of the room Med bows respectfully to the mad king and says "King Gragor, is this room usually lit in such a strange manner? Also, in our dealings with the goblins they have been creatures capable of hunting under the darkness of night. During your rule have you found that to be the case as well? If so why would they need the light? I propose that if there is a threat within this room that we work together to eliminate it. After all if they are goblins they must be taught the proper respect and fear for violating the borders of King Gragor's kingdom. Besides, King Gragor, when we return this way with your scepters we may run into these goblins. It may be wise to deal with them now with the element of surprise. What is the great King Gragor's decree?"
Med would not feel too badly if a few of the king's minions or the king himself failed to survive the battle, so he has no plans to attempt to keep anyone outside of the party and himself alive should battle be joined.
