The Underdark

A decision is made to accompany Grimham back to Darkhome.

- They travel for three days through dark tunnels and caves.

- On the last day of travel the party is ambushed by a training patrol of drow warriors, not far from Darkhome.

- They also encounter a deep gnome miner. He is working alone with an elemental actually doing the mining. Grimham explains his people are very in tune with the earth and make use of its native creatures.

- Arriving at Darkhome, they are escorted to a small stone hut where they are expected to stay for the duration of the visit. They may leave, but only with an escort such as Grimham with them at all times.

- The city has no lights. Those who are gifted with the ability to see in the dark note the beauty of the underground city. The structures seem to be crafted from the very earth itself and decorated with gems and jewels all about to create intricate mosaics. It even appears that the natural formations of the main large cave the city rests in are used for housing (stalagmites, etc.).

- After doing some shopping, the party leaves Darkhome and Grimham.

- Kelley still owes a map they purchased at Darkhome of the surrounding area and some more details of Darkhome and the culture therein. Yea, I didnt forget.
