@Jiid So Daan he grit his teeth, clutching the dart rifle harshly. especially as those two were currently not in a state where they were going to be helpful.
As the front-door from the group’s sanctuary might not be a viable option to explore from, and one tunnel leads to a dead end, that leaves one more route possibly beneath the other uninvestigated tile.
@Coriolanus @NyantaStarhunt @Jinx @Cerebrate Lillith still very scared still sticks to Nyanta like glue and not letting go of his hand. With sniffles and quiet half sobs coming from him still as he tries to get a hold of himself. “Y-yeah,sniff lets go.” He says as they go to the passage that Imos is opening

[ 🔊 ] This spacious tunnel seems to lack the stench of the other one, but requires the lounge’s headlamps to be able to see anything beyond near the entrance. Judging by how long it takes for echoes to reverberate back, this route might go on for quite a while… and unless the turns chosen on splitting pathways are carefully remembered, the group may lose way back to their only known safe haven.
If they move on, they should be prepared, and always alert.
@NyantaStarhunt Soon, the ambient speakers can be heard again, playing the sounds of the forest past the window. Stepping down the tunnel at some distance, this ‘natural’ noise heard apart from the mechanical one may help guide the group back to their haven.

“Well he was just one guard. There’s three of us, and so long as we mark it we’ll be able to get back fine. Of it goes South fast we can run back and close it up.”
@Cerebrate@Jiid So Daan@NyantaStarhunt As the lizard heaves the tile back into place over the shorter tunnel entrance, the others notice a blue pigmentation appearing on Imos’s hands that wasn’t there at first… he did touch a cadaver recently.
