Going ahead certainly offered many risks, and possible rewards, but going back was not a bad option at this stage either. Considering the options, Valen lifted the bound goblin and carried her over to the cavern with the water, leaving her near the water, and returning to head to the passages beyond. Leaving the bones in her bag, carrying them along still, the mage Valen in the shape of a dryad silently wondered if it was wiser to leave or stay, decided to at least peek at the other floor. Heading back to take a look above quietly, to have a look as careful as possible at what lay beyond.<br/><br/>Heading to that way the goblin's guest had gone before, Valen wanted to have a peek ahead, but at the same time, ready to cast the spell of creating that mist to run away under. Wanting to vanish from sight before getting in more trouble. Her resources were limited, most of her magic gone, and she was still in female form too. She silently felt curious, but also worried. It brought its own challenges afterall. Including risks of what might happen if caught. She resolved not to be caught, ready to run at faintest sign of trouble at her peek up at the next floor.
