"I know, yes? When I first saw them spawn into existence I said to myself they wouldn't even last an eon, but the ugly little buggers proved quite tenacious and hard working so they now actually have their own lands and leaders. Also helps that they multiply pretty fast I guess."

Yes, pretty popular too. You don't get out much, do you? I respect hard workers, but everybody needs a vacation now and then. I'm sure the kobolds will give you some paid time off to see the world.

Vacations, yes, one of the greatest inventions of the last centuries. You'll need to negotiate properly but I'm sure a mutual understanding agreement can be reached with the kobolds.

However before discussing your new contracts we still need to run a proper inspection of the facilities. So if any of you could serve as a guide through all the traps and passages or provide me a map, I would really appreciate it.

"The facilities are in bad disrepair.  We keep our section pristine, but squatters abound elsewhere.  And loafers as well.  We can show you around most places, though you may attract some unwelcome attention not being an ooze and all."

Oh, you're oozes?  Quite geometric. Also I guess you indeed don't have eyes or hands or feet, just hard to be 100% sure when you're so transparent.

I can take care of myself, this scythe's not just for show, you know? Or dig away or teleport if things get too hard, hahaha.

So if you don't mind first you can start by showing me the way to where I left my friend co-workers waiting since the passage was blocked by degrees and I burrowed ahead. I think it was roughly in that direction. Near the entrance to the surface or something.


Morte returns to her Xorn shape while speaking while doing her best to describe the direction where the rest of the party is so the ooze cubes can guide her to it through a more open route.

(no)

That doesn't sound very good. Anybody around here with hands that could help us clear the rubble? Some golems maybe?

Well surely you  have somebody here to take care of heavy duty repairs. Even if nobody tears it, stuff eventually goes down by itself.

"Used to be Fiends or slaves did that.  Fiends left to take care of business, promising to return.  The slaves revolted and took over, and eventually died of old age.  Also, we ate a few when they tried to exterminate us."

Yeah, it's annoying when the mortals suddenly rebel and think they can just destroy us.

So who else is nearby that would be willing to speak first and only try to eat me second?

"Unsure.  The prison is pretty darn big, and we've been cut off from much of it forever.  Before most of us were born even."

Which areas you still have access to then? You said you could show me around most places, so we can start on that from friendliest neighbours we can reach right now and work our way from there.

Morte grins while pulling some of her ghostly gold coins and clinking them in her hand.

Where I originally came from money is the ultimate argument so anybody bribe-able sounds perfect! Lead the way!

You head down a long wall, and at some point hear "Halt!  Who trespasses!" in a squeaky voice.

Menina Morte, and those are Ruby, Saphire, Emerald, Big Bones and the rest of our merry group. Just getting to meet our new neighbours. To who do we owe the pleasure?
