OOC: Ross asked me to post for Silt so here goes, trying to get the character caught up on all the events which had happened.

Silt 29/80

The staircase was long and winding in it's course towards the top level, towards which Larry and the one who had given his name as Morgeruat had gone. Even the elf, whom Silt was got winded before reaching the top. His injuries, although not life threatening did slow him somewhat. As he stopped to gather his breath he started hearing a strange sound. At first it was as if a great pressure had finally won and something was going to move very soon, but then the sound became nearly deafening and the staircase around Silt began to tremble. Desperately trying to find something to hold on to the elf tried grabbing at stones in the wall next to him, but the tower was trembling so strongly that he could not gain any sure hold on the stones. And then he felt a sharp pain at the back of his head and his vision blurred and for several minutes he did not know any more.

When his sight and hearing returned he stood up shakily and feeling the back of his head felt some blood, but not a lot. Around him several stones had been dislodged and looking up the staircase he could see that the higher levels had collapsed. Still with a somewhat blurred vision Silt took a shaky step down the stairs, as that seemed the only way to go now, but then froze before moving the next foot. A bloodcurling death shriek came from below and was closely followed by two more. It seemed that despite his injury to his leg the drow was still active and was coming after Silt.

The elf drew his sword and then slowly started to make his way down the staircase, listening for any sound of the drow's ascent.
