(Week 3) Brave Ork fight evil Horror

When party and I reached bottom of hole and came into sunlight, I saw that I had no shadow.  I was very upset.  I threw away gold coin that I thought cursed me.  Other Ork, Throg picked up coin before I told him why I had thrown it away.  Then he had no shadow too.  After we explained to Vaughn the importance of dropping the coin, he did and Throg kicked them down the big hole.

We slept in cave to avoid suspicious villagers.  Dob saw children jump into hole and disapear when they hit ground.  He didn't tell anyone until he was relieved by Vaughn at end of his watch.  Vaugn was mad, but I said what to do until moring anyway.

We were at loss as to where to go next.  I thought the door that I had tried to open when floor fell, but better look showed that it was probably fake.  Just bait for trap.  This is evil, Horror-tainted dungeon.  Should be more careful.

I thought that we could use friendly wizard's rope ladder to search bottomless pit of wind.  Vaughn and I went down but we found nothing.  We did not reach bottom or find a side passage.  Considering our options, we searched room where we had found empty chest.  Whole room not just where chest had been.  I found secret door.  Dangerous traps inside knocked out Homy, again, when she tried to poke at them.  First Dob and then I danced through writhing chains with little damage.  Vaughn tried too, but was hurt.  We found small bag full of something.  I thought that maybe it held poor, tormented souls of disappearing children.  But when I opened bag inside was a dead cat Horror.  I guess I let cat out of bag.  That was bad idea.  Thog burned bag and cat too after we killed it.  That was tough.  I listened at doors but never heard anything.  We saw more statues in next room.  They were looking at far wall so I went to examine it.
