    Shimmer

    As the group reaches the stairs, Shimmer becomes extra cautious again, holding her light-giving sling bullet high as she strains to see what waited above.

    The light shines up the pillar stairway, and you can see a ceiling some forty or so feet up. There doesn't appear to be anything up there, kobold-wise.

    Who will go up first?

    I'd suggest that Kiris and Shimmer head on up first.

    And just in case you need additional checks:

    Spot (1d20+8)[18]
    Search (1d20+12)[18]

    Heading up, the pillar stairway touches the edges of the next floor. Here, there isn't as much sand, although you can feel a fair breeze coming from two open doorwards, one north and the other east.

    The room seems devoid of any life, and the light from Shimmer's stone fills all but the very corners of the room with good light.

    Yes, I'm horrible with updates on this. I'm still going to try to push through, if anyone cares to keep going.

    Rhapsody

    Rhapsody taking up the rear hasn't made it to the top.

    Shimmer

    Shimmer waves back an "all clear" to bring the others up, and takes a moment to examine the floor for footprints in the scant sand (and for other strangenesses). As she nears each of the doorways, she takes a look down and a listen down the passage beyond.
