The Agate Seekers start their exploration of the Kobold-occupied ruin, but before going along, Dareth proposes a contest; those who can non-lethally knock out the most kobolds wins, and can ask anything of him; with this contest being proposed due to Mikhail believing that replacing Henich as leader might result in the kobold gang becoming more constructive. After that was decided, they first opened the door to their left, containing the two kobolds playing Go Fish. Stumped at first, the Kobolds didn't fight back until Sooty decided to blast them with a Thunderwave. Philomena Snapdragon managed to K.O. one of them, while it would take Sooty a while to do so for the other, having to endure some hits in the process. Volk Lesnoy meanwhile found a group of kobolds having a conversation how many of them are frustrated with Henich and how long he is taking, with a few thinking about just leaving him here, before he was noticed and had to engage in combat; even having to rage due to the sheer number of kobolds and hits he had to tank. Zora went into a dark room without properly looking and tripped over two tripwires, getting hit by two crossbow-traps.
A bit further in, Dareth found an open casket with a pile of Gold-Bills. After he and Philomena checked for traps and couldn't find any, he reached out for the money and... immediately was hit by a Bear Trap under the money. Zora wandered off, finding a dark hallway, wich she illuminated with a torch. Opening one door, she was hit by the stank of raw sewage, as she found a flooded room filled to the brim with brown water; most likely where these kobolds got rid of their waste. She then also found a few cells filled with wild dogs, and managed to befriend one, before triggering a trap and setting them all free, having to fight most of them with her new dog friend at her side. Philomena was able to disarm a net-trap in a room with four caskets, but when opening one up, was attacked by the kobold sleeping in it. Mikhail tried to intimidate the kobold, but it instead woke the other two up and combat resumed once more.
After this, Philomena found a treasure-room, and when wanting to take a treasure, found that it's actually an illusion that had two kobolds hiding in it. Once again, combat, but the kobolds were dealt with quite quickly. The party reconvened, and went through the hallway, finding a room with cave-ins to the north and west, with two kobolds guarding a door to the east, that were quickly dealt with. Sooty then opened the door, finding a kobold in a cage, munching on a ration, which then looked up and said "Well. Seems like I am in luck."
