Moving carefully through the grim cavern was the Cohort and in the lead Drake. Earlier Drake had informed the group of his hint on a way out, which they were at first doubtful of, hesitating to believe him.
This was rather expected from the Cohort who had all hopes long been crushed, they had explored the caverns far more than Drake, searched countless tunnels, and knew well that each one led nowhere.
That reason alone gave Drake no leverage to argue, so he simply got up and began walking away from the group's campsite, leaving them behind.
This was the kick-start they needed for them to follow. After all, what was the harm in going, they thought. Picking up their weapons, strapping their swords back into their scabbards in haste, one after another, they followed right behind him silently.
That was how they had started another indefinite adventure through the caverns.
