    Using my Cloak of Elvenkind (I established that I had one pages ago), I sneak through shadows while following the footprints, with hope they will lead me to Zataka. I can't help but wonder what became of Malichor, the Dwarven knight, and the Gnomish math wizard, but I will look for Zataka first. I know where he was headed, but I do not know where my other companions have gone.

    Knowing that I have been discovered, I run at the ogre and do a leaping slash in an attempt to take him off guard and finish him before he can awaken the others. My number one priority at the moment is to take both ogres out as quickly as possible before they can alert the others and to ensure the gnomes safety. I utilize every ability at my disposable to do this until either help arrives or both ogres are incapacitated (or even dead).

    @TheDarkOne
    Sancireph, using your cloak of elvenkind, you easily slip past the ogres in the barracks, making your way to another chamber with a machine similar to the one that you saw earlier. It seems the ogres made the gnomes build multiples based on the original model from the engineer. It is being operated by an ogre and gnomes are passing buckets of sand out of the chamber in a chain gang.
    Zataka is here as well, bringing his sword down on the green ogre you encountered in the village. It splits the thing in half like a banana.
    The other ogre begins to shout. What do you do?

    Zataka, you bring your mighty blade down on the green ogre. You've gotten the drop on him, so he doesn't block or dodge. The great heft of your weapon splits him like an ice cream sundae and the resulting gush of gore coats you in unpleasant red matter.
    The other ogre begins to shout. What do you do?

    I draw my blades and attempt to decapitate the second ogre with a scissor-slash. If successful, I will again slip into the shadows before more ogres respond to this one's shout. Unfortunately, there is little I can do to help Zataka in his current situation.

    I glance at the gnomes, seeing if they made it out yet or if I will need to cover their escape. I bring my attention back to the current remaining ogre and prepare to attack if need be. Otherwise my attention shifts to escorting the gnomes out at any cost. I prepare to cast the strongest enchantment onto my blade in anticipation of the other ogres awakening.

    I speak to Madam Red and ask her to take us far away from this pumpkin patch and mansion. She creates one of her giant red roses and we sit inside and burrow deep beneath the surface of the snow. The pumpkins all die mysteriously as we leave.

    @TheDarkOne
    Sancireph, your blades slide between the ogre's vertebrae and you are able to remove the head from the body. You kick it towards the passageways to the barracks and slip into the darkness before the rest of the party can arrive.
    Zataka raises his sword and casts an enchantment, causing the ground to quake and the opening to collapse. The lanterns hanging from the walls fall and crash, and you are left in darkness.
    What do you do?

    =====
    @mrz84
    Zataka, as you raise your blade to deal with the remaining ogre his head pops off like a cork. You catch a quick glimpse of Sancireph before he vanishes into the shadows.
    With the other ogres quickly approaching you consider which enchantment would give you the best advantage. Then you remember how potent the quake incantation was when it fell off your blade. You resolve to collapse the passageway so that they can't pursue you.
    As you cast the spell the ground around you begins to shake. The cavern collapses, filling the passageway. However, the lanterns fall from the walls and shroud you in darkness.
    What do you do?

    =====
    @Tamamo
    Rossaria, you catch a disturbing glimpse into one of the pumpkins as you descend. Was that... a body? Well, too late to worry about that now.
    Lady Red has returned the two of you to her palace in Kikonou, far away from the Audamar region and the creeping decay of that forest. An ocean away, actually. She disassembles the rose petal by petal, wrapping herself in the pieces as she goes.
    Thunder breaks the silence. And then, a knock.
    "Who could that be at such an hour? A... dinner guest?"
    She smiles at you.
    What do you do?

    I quickly check my supplies for a torch or lantern. If that fails me, I resort to casting a fire enchantment on my blade in an attempt to use it as a source of light. Once I can secure a means of lighting the darkness, my first priority is to check on the gnomes and escort them to safety as quickly as possible.

    I smile back, well then I'll go get dinner ready. I leave her with a peck on her pale white cheek and head to the kitchen. Been a while since I've been back home but I'm still able to find my way where in a few minutes. Grab some sleeping herbs "it won't work on me and red since we're elves. plus she's sort of already dead anyways" and make gotcha pork roast replacing the rosemary with the sleeping herbs. and also adding them to the mixture in the middle.

    Dinner is served my lady. I say to her and my guess who takes a sniff of the air as Red asks him to join us.

    "Or I don't want want to intrude. I was just err... Passing bye... Yeah that's right..." Clearly uncomfortable he moves back the front door.

    With Lightning Speed I rush past him like the wind and with a glare and angry voice. I repeat our lady's request.
    "The guess WILL stay..." He gives in, and proceeds to the dining room.

    Red eats her roast in small bites to make it easier to throw up later. I devour it quickly enthralled in the sweet animal juices.

    The man begins eating his dinner and introduces himself and begins explaining why he is here.

    The darkness does not bother me as I can see with infravision. Keeping an ear out for approaching ogres, I assist Zataka in getting the gnomes to safety. I tell Zataka to keep his blade at the ready should any ogres arrive. I also keep my blades drawn, keeping to darker shadows with the assistance of my cloak to keep me nearly invisible.
