You suggest to Pearl that the group take the remains of the salamander back to the goblin camp to trade. She says, "We could, but I don't know how much we'd get for it. We've been slowly siphoning off their coin for some time and they're starting to get tightfisted. Whether that means they all have light purses or they've caught on to our tricks, I doubt we'll be able to sell much back there."
You decapitate the salamander's head and pick it up, but it's kinda heavy. You might want to make some "equipment decisions".
You're in the river tunnel, on the riverbed. Upriver is east, downriver is west. The cut-out road is to the south. Across the road to the south is a smaller side tunnel.
(Inventory rule rewrite: Items in containers now count toward carry capacity. Items must be carried in hand or in containers - if you have a dozen items just on your person you're carrying them all in your hands and it's a mess to deal with. Worn clothes altogether now count as 1 item.)
In light of this strange shift in reality, Claire offers to carry the salamander hide and head, and the girls drop off the meat sacks for later retrieval.
Claire, Charlotte, and Pearl are here. Everyone is completely covered in blood.
Lying on the ground here is:
Sack [10/10]: 10 Raw Salamander Meat
Sack [10/10]: 10 Raw Salamander Meat
Sack [10/10]: 10 Raw Salamander Meat
You all climb up onto the road and check out the side tunnel to the south. There's no longer a red glow. By the light of your still-lit Lame Torch, you see that the side tunnel used to be sealed by a great door which has been melted and forced open. Beyond is a large room about the same dimensions as the riverbed tunnel, parallel to it, but only about 40' long, and the floor is level with the road. The whole interior is charred and the roof is encrusted with soot. There's burned and melted debris everywhere.
A mouth protruding from the near east wall whispers a sibilant phrase over and over in some language you don't understand.
On the far west side, the farthest from the entrance, there is an especially-blackened area around a square alcove in the wall. A shimmering sheet of energy covers the alcove and there's a rectangular white chest inside. The area inside the alcove is completely unburned, clear of dust and debris.
