The stairwell lead into a building that was broken into shambles. Crumbles of the ceiling and beds were spread out along the walls. It didn’t take long for the party to notice large centipede like beings that were crawling along the floor. Orin and Garo ran to intercept the bulk of the enemies while Kriv stayed in the back to take on the one that was close. Berrian let lose a chain of lighting that torched three of the beasts. Only a few seconds into the battle, it seemed like it was already won but then the ground began to quake. 2 large beings erupted from the ground, attacking the party. They continuously burrowed, erupted, and bit party members. The party grouped together, waiting for each one to erupt. Orin was at one point knocked down and as both of the beasts shot out of the ground and bit him very hard. Orin held strong and was able to stand again but was hurt badly. Berrian shot another devastating blow to one of the beasts while Kriv decapitated the other. The party had survived another day.
Once the party left the building, they realized that they were in the barracks that they had passed before entering the hall of glory. After some discussion, they decided to empty the guard house that was near the entrance as to not be surprised from behind when they finally would liberate the abbey.
