Wren chewed on her lip for a moment, "What you blondie?" she asked of Elle, "What spells you got for battle?"<br/><br/>She nodded to the tefling and added in her own thoughts, "As I said, at least 20, there may be a lot more in there and we don't know the ground. Being invisable is great, but that doesn't mean that they can't hear us, and can't see that the door opens up again. If we got away with it once, we should consider ourselves lucky."<br/><br/>She looked about the room, "This isn't the greatest ground for a fight, too much dead stuff underfoot... and I have to ask three very important questions of our blood lust mage..."<br/><br/>She held up one finger, "One, can you say with 100% certainty that your spells will get every wight in there? Even if they are split among several rooms, or down a hall? You don't put hidden doors as hidden on just one side and it may be in a closet or something for all I know."<br/><br/>Another finger comes up to join the first. "Two. Will your spells tell the difference between me and them? I don't want to get caught up by entanglements or webs if I walk into the room... and webs have a nasty habit of catching both sides..."<br/><br/>And, finally, a third finger joins the first two.. "Three. Your fire spell promises to kill all of them outright? We don't have to go in and find out that you only singed 20 and more of them?"<br/><br/>She looked from Surge and the others, "A good and valid point was made here. We were hired to find the possible source of the trouble, not remove it. Furthermore, we were told without doubt that we could engage only if our lives were at risk. Our orders were to report to the watch... and they have battle mages to deal with this and keep them all inside...I want to put in one more point... We killed 4 in the sewer... what if there's 20 more of them on their way back from their snacks? We may find ourselves trapped between two forces... I'll go up against any 2, even 3 living and breathing foes and place my faith in Lady Luck, but not at 4 to 5 to one odds against something that can kill me with a touch. If we fight, if we could draw them out, the best plan would be to hold the doorway and give ground grungingly... but what's to say that they simply won't go out the front door and down into the sewer behind us... no, the ground is just bad for a fight. I say we go and report this. They've been here for a while and a daylight strike by the watch may be a better option. If they ask us to join in, fine... but going in there with spells that may snarl us as well... I just don't like it."
