The cave's entrance was very low to the ground, only about four feet of clearance.  Mareth could see from the outside that it opened up to a much more comfortable height immediately inside, however.  The first section of the cave was a large, round room, about 40 feet in diameter, with two more openings leading deeper inside, one to the right, and one in the back.  The opening on the right just lead to a similar, smaller room, but the path in the rear of the cave sloped gently downwards for about twenty feet before opening up again.<br/><br/>As Mareth explored, she noticed several markings on the walls that indicated that the cave wasn't entirely natural; parts of it had been opened up to make more room.  The room at the bottom of the slope seemed to be carved almost entirely out of the rock walls.  As she approached however, Mareth noticed a few footprints in the dirt, possibly very recent.  They were tiny, reptilian prints; likely kobolds, and at least a handful.  A larger surprise came when she noticed something she had assumed was a rock at first glance turned out to be an incredibly lifelike statue of a squirrel... and it looked far too perfect to be a mere carving.
