"Thanks, Andrea! Whoosh!"

Emilia flies to L5 and investigates the skeleton.

[Haspen]

The skeleton is clad in resplendent, if threadbare, cloth. Their cuirass, still in decent condition, is green. The skeleton is clutching a torn-apart bag in their left bony hand, and a silver lance in their right bony hand.

Although the bag is torn and whatever was inside is missing, the lance seems like it could still stab a few spiders.

The skeleton's bones have many marks of being bitten and chewed on.

Emilia gets Silver Lance (10/30 QL)!

"Poor guy. He must've gotten swarmed by the spiders."

"May you rest in the arms of the Goddess."

The skeleton was wearing some fine threads. Maybe whoever this was, was someone important. Emilia reached down to tear free the torn bag from the skeleton's grasp. Between that and the lance, there might be some clues as to who this once was.

[rustytengo]

"Well we can try smoking out the spiders or looking for a trigger web or something to get them out here. Giant spider monsters haven't really been something I dug to much into. So can't tell you to much on them."
Lilinoe says wandering slightly closer to the mine

Lilinoe moves to I8

[Solymr]

While waiting for treatment, Markus intervened.

: We could smoke them out, yes. But we could also enter the mine and clear it entirely. Former's the safer option, but I'd prefer being thorough and avoid problems down the line.

[Caellath]

"As safely as I'd like to do this, it's safer for us to risk ourselves than risk leaving any remnant spiders to eat at the far less combat-capable workers who show up here after we say it's safe."

"We could try to smoke most of them out first then get in to clean up any remnants, but depending on how smart they are it could end up with the survivors hiding away instead... And we did prevent what looked like a runner from calling the rest so we might benefit from striking while the iron is hot, as I think is said."

Aras to H10, heal bonk Markus.

[Haspen]

Markus thus felt a tap on his cranium.

5+7+2 = 14 HP healed

"Its settled, then. We go into the mine, but let me just peek into this building over here real quick..." Merewin does exactly that.

He emerges a minute later, holding two torches with old cloth wrapped around them.

"There's a whole strongbox of other tools inside. Father will be glad to know that." He says, approaching Sebastian and others. He hands one torch to the monk, the other to Markus.

"I think it will be safer for us all if you lead the way in, Markus."

[Solymr]

: Indeed. Sebastian, you'll be the rear guard. Markus grabbed the torch. Can any of you light these with magic?

[ctsun]

"Um, before we go, I'd managed to grab these from that poor fellow up on that cliff. Would any of you be able to recognise something that might identify him?" Emilia said, producing the Lance and the torn bag she'd managed to fetch from that skeleton. maybe there'd be some kind of insignia she'd missed or something?

[rustytengo]

Lilinoe frowned at Markus' request

"Really you want to use magi to light a torch. Just use some flint and steel." she said sharply before turning to look over the stuff Emilia brought back.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Ah, an acknowledgement you truly would be lost without me. I will take this posting with great pride, my liege."
Sebastian accepts the torch, his eyebrows only somewhat furrowing in response to the question.
"Unfortunately, my magical talents only go so far. Calling down the wrath of our so merciful gods isn't something I can call upon to light a torch on demand."
Having said that, Sebastian produces a flint and a small hunk of what appears to have been a piece of armor.
"Fortunately, Master Erdel grants us such great gifts as to light our own way."

[Solymr]

Markus grumbled as he took his own flint and steel own.

: _{Fancy-schmancy magic but can't even do one of the simplest, most convenient things... Back in the day we had the one mage lighting our campfires and our enemies and it was all well...} Annoyed old man grumbling continued until the torches were lit, and then he took the time to look at Emilia's loot.

: Can't say I recognize anything about the torn bag, but the lance is too high quality for a common soldier to be carrying.

[Haspen]

"Maybe it was a wealthy but unfortunate adventurer?" Merewin chimes in to the conversation.
