It appears we are doing the waylaying now, muwhahaha! Orcs and trolls battles in this clearing. A foul smell wafts from the northeast. Use a character with infravision to interact with the Pool of Water, revealing a staircase. We also find a corpse in the cave carrying a Historical Treatise of Dragonspear Castle on his person. There are miscellaneous items in the den of trolls and other baddies, including Firefly +2 in the water.
