The secret door slides open, revealing another stairway. But this one descends, leading into a basement or cellar of some kind.
"Sure, I'm great at stealth," the kender assures him. "Wowee, is that a secret door? What do you think is down there?"

Sumina smirks a bit as the others try to control the kender , but she found that to be a pointless thing to try to do.

Arthogate shakes his head and goes in where Sha'al just went.

Seeing the others come in, Sha'al taps the Kender on the shoulder and holds a finger up for quiet. Be stealthy like a mouse in a room full of cats. You check thr upstairs with them. he nods to the others now arriving. As soon as the Kender is distracted he will try to slip quietly down the secret stairway

Sumina, now tired of waiting for the others, moves inside the house to find the other three that have went inside. "Getting separated in an enchanted forest is a bad idea, even if we are hanging out in a house."

When Sumina and Arthogate enter, Twill points to the now open secret door on the stairs and says, "Mister Green found a secret door and went inside, c'mon, I bet there's something interesting in there!" He then hops up the stairs, two at a time, and goes in after Sha'al.
Meanwhile, Sha'al descends the stairs. It's completely dark down here, but his keen elven eyes can help make out where he is going. At the bottom, he finds himself in a large rectangular room. While now a complete mess, it is clear this was once a mage's workshop. There's a huge mirror against the southern wall. Reliefs of dragons, celestials, fiends and unicorns decorate a rune-covered mahogany frame, which is capped by a gargoyle's head, curiously missing its horn.
But the point of real interest is the nine foot tall ogre waiting there. He has a black house cat cradled in one hand, and a very agitated cow tied up nearby. He seems to be trying to give the cat a bowl of milk, when he glances up and spots the sea elf descending the stairs. With his free hand, he quickly grabs his large, wooden club. "You try and steal Tom's kitty? Tom stole kitty fair and square first!"

Nope. I'm not here for kitty. Looking for the witch who used to live here. You know what happened to her? If not, I'll just go. he moves as if to go back up; and if the ogre doesnt respond about the witch he does so and attempts to forestall the others so they can organize.

Parra follow along, quite excited to explore the withch's hut. She curse and hiss at any insult about ogres, grumbling about the evil of the gods. Parra walk forward and hit her chest with a fist a s salute of peace and talk on ogre. -"No, dear cousin. Why would we? We are looking for the witch. What are you doing here dear cousin?"-
In ogrish she sound relativly soft.

Arthogate shakes his head and follows Twil up the stairs though the dwarf does not join in the hoping up the stairs two at a time as Twil does, the dwarf choses to walk normally.

When Sha'al mentions the witch, the ogre says, "Witch send you? She want to steal back house? But Tom stole first! Is Tom's now!" When Sha'al tries to turn to go back upstairs, he practically runs into Twil. Behind him is Parra, and behind her are the others, having apparently all followed him down here. "Kitty!" Twill cries, pointing accusingly. "That's my kitty!" "No is your kitty, is my kitty!" Tom cries. He gently closes his hand around the mewling black cat, so it is inaccessible but unharmed. "Rarragh, try and steal my kitty, try and steal my house! Tom smash you, smash you to goo!" He slams his club into the ground for emphasis, leaving a large crack on the floor. ============= (OOC: Roll initiative and state actions for Round 01.)

Sumina can't see anything with everyone else in front of her, but she has ears thankfully can hear. "That went well," she mutters as she draws her sword. "Spell casters in the back!" she calls out. She tries to move through the crowd (though she certainly doesn't want to be in the front), and then starts praying. (Curse on Tom).

F5ck. Sha'al readies his trident and takes a short step into the room to make room for the others (5ft south of the bottom of the stairs for clearance). Clear the stair so the others can get down. You want kitty you're gonna have to fight for him! he barks at Twil. All Hands! Ogre in the Orlop! Heave to, and blow the man down!! he shouts, in case anyone hadn't picked up on the situation. Art! Gark! On me!
==== Orlop: lowest level of the ship (Sha'al means the lowest level in the structure now)
Blow the man down!: Kill him, or take him out (seems self explanatory, but you never know)

Arthogate stops as apparently progression on the stairs has come to a halt somewhere ahead "Eh? What is going on why'd we all stop? What's going on up there?"
