"As long as we are quiet, and cautious in our movements," Ryzar says
quietly, "and we don't go sticking these light-stick-thingies too high up
near the roof -- we shouldn't disturb the bats. As for the cave floor..."
Ryzar shrugs resignedly, "...just be careful of slippery footing, and
treacherous irregularities that may be buried beneath the guano.
"But, it can't be THAT treacherous, can it? I mean, these Vordral
folks come and go here all the time, yes?"
Ryzar flashes a quick smile, "However, when we leave here, later, let's
not forget to clean our boots -- this stuff CAN'T be good for our shoe
leather!"
Holding the lightstick in one hand, and his dartgun in the other, Ryzar
starts to slowly make his way down the long, round, and un-naturally
straight tunnel.
