However far down the floor is, so I guess that'd be farther for Carrow than for Dorgath...

Carrow readies his sword, but if there are any evil things in the slime pit, they apparently prefer to stay there... ...for now.

Dorgath lifts the iron grate with only slight difficulty, revealing a stinking pit of green slime. There are some objects in the slime, but before Dorgath can make out what they are, he winces from the horrendous fumes.

I've been too busy to actually work on this, but I'm finally returning to it. And I've finally found what I remembered seeing, but couldn't locate until now. As Mooseman suspected, it was Aaron Forsythe in 2007: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtgcom/daily/af173

All Dorgath sees when he peers down the well is the chain. He tries the grate, but even up close, he can't get a good look at what is underneath it. However, it does look like he could lift the grate to get a better look...

Dorgath identifies a Blessed Sword. Only misses on a to-hit roll of 2 or lower. Worth 300 gold. Dorgath checks the slain hobgoblins, but finds nothing of value. Avorus: "Big brother, I think." Arcttus: "We don't know if that was Skrunch!" Avorus: "It was him. That was the name they called...

Yesterday I started a new article that is kind of possibly related to this tangentially. Sort of. It's certainly not about Modern. Anyway, I was looking for something but didn't find it and didn't have time to search more thoroughly. So I thought I'd ask here if anyone remembers a few years ago...

-The hobgoblins get an automatic magic-bypassing ambush. -A hobgoblin tries to ambush Throg, but misses. -A hobgoblin ambushes Throg, but its axe bounces off his helmet without harming him. -A hobgoblin ambushes Throg, striking him in the head (16/19). -A hobgoblin ambushes Kelgar, striking him...

Hobgoblins are close relatives of the other green-skinned races, but are quite distinctive in appearance, being taller than goblins, yet not as burly as orcs. They are extremely cowardly and sneaky, much taken with ganging up on their victims in the dark. They are often found in the employ of...

"Me? No, I can't see in the dark. I don't even know for sure if I've been to this room before. All I can tell you is that there were more orcs and goblins when they brought us down here."

In the center of the room at the end of the corridor there is a round well in the floor with a chain dangling down into the darkness. In one corner is a sturdy iron grating, from which a hideous smell exudes. Opposite is a stone chest with wisps of green vapor curling from its lid. There are no...

Kelgar whispers: "I don't think taking them out of here right away is an option. Even if we could easily get past the collapsed ceiling, we'd still have to find a way to get back through the chaos gate. I don't detect any magic on these men. That's no sure indication that they have none, but...

"I don't—no, I don't know. I mean, this has to be Karak Azgal, right? But that's a big place. I assumed you would know better than us. Even if you don't know of a way out, we'd still ask that you let us come along. You have a lantern. We're tired and unarmed and I'm sure we'd all die in here...

"I'm really not sure. It seems like it's been forever. I guess it's really only been a few days at most."

The old man speaks up, "I'm Anton. That's Arcttus [he gestures toward the man you've been speaking to] and this is Avorus. We mostly deal in textiles and pelts. We don't have anything with us. They took everything before they brought us here, wherever here is. I can promise you that if you help...

"If you save us, we can pay you!"

"What? No, we just—that's all we've seen down here. They waylaid us on the road and brought us here. Please get us out."

But not for a while!

Dorgath opens the door, revealing a bent corridor. Three dirty, haggard men in rags are cowering in the corner. They appear to be unarmed. One of them is elderly and is leaning on another, a young man, for support. The third man moves in front of the others and speaks in a weak voice... "Well...

That's great. I've always felt that there was something special about the old cards, even when I was new to the game (late 1990's) I had a fondness for the older sets. There's also some pretty cool stuff that's been coming out more recently, and I'm sure he's seen some of that too. The game is...
