Dyrak pokes his head into one of the kennels and flopping around clumsily on the heaped up straw is a wolf pup; probably no more than a couple of months old. It yaps at you, lower its head and gives a low growl.

The wolf pup cocks its head to the side and sniffs warily. A second or two later it cautiously waddles over and snatches the treat from your fingers and greedily gulps it down. It yaps at you again.

Dyrak pulls another piece of food out, and motions for the pup to come closer. When he does he will slowly move his other hand to pet the pup.

Conrad searches the beastmaster's place, moving the straw pallet and looking for any kind of valuable, key or anything.

Searching the rest of the room turns up very little, and nothing of particular value . . . unless half-eaten corpses and bones are your thing.

Dyrak picks the wolf pup up and puts it in his waterproof bag. Then rolls it down so the little guy can see and attaches it to his waist for a tactical puppy pouch.

Corin-"Damnit Dyrak, you already have terrible fleas, why make it worse by bringing that mongrel with you?"

Dyrak shrugs and scratches his side.

"Seems we need to find a way past the pit to the other side. There must be a way if they hauled a wagon or heavy loot in here." Baroda says.

You each spend about ten minutes searching the walls for anything that might conceivably function as a switch. Nothing presents itself.

(a note about the pit: there is a two-feet wide ledge that skirts the actual trapdoor in the floor on the north and west side of the pit, so it is possible to hug the wall and walk around it safely)

a narrow 2 feet-wide ledge can be traversed around it on the left

Dang it. Let's just assume it was Kraft the retarded cheese maker that was checking for ways around the pit.

"Alright Kraft, you didn't mention the other ledge, you go first." says Meycar.

Dammit! I meant your other left.

Your torches cast dim light into the passage north of the pit, revealing an unlit chamber littered with refuse and three sleeping pallets. On these pallets are three Moktars. It seems unlikely they could have slept through all of the racket earlier, but they do not stir as you creep up to the threshold of the room and peek around the corner.

On the western wall is a sealed doorway of some kind of polished metal. It doesn't appear to have any handles.

Kraft being none too bright or cautious slams his cudgel into the nearest Moktar's head.

*Whack!*

The cudgel makes a sickening crunching sound and the Moktar is either one hell of a sleeper or it's been dead for some amount of time. To Kraft's relief the other Moktars don't stir.

Upon closer examination, you can see large bald patches in each of the moktar's fur and when you turn them over their faces look withered and drawn.

The surprised cheese-maker remarks, "Huh! Dem already dead!" Meycar joins Kraft in searching the bodies. Baroda scans the room while Harrah keeps watch.

Corin-"This is an interesting turn of events. I wonder who or what did this to these three?"

Dyak examines the bodies to see if he can discern any useful information from them.

Are those bald patches in a specific location?

: Maybe we could eat them like dried meat?
Conrad starts cutting the closest Moktar, checking for blood and meat consistency.
