Ronan raised a bit of a brow at the mentioning of spilling the blood of a living creature in order to open the portal or whatever it was to proceed further. It seemed that one of those challengers from earlier would need to be use as a sacrifice for the better. It didn’t come into his mind to use one of his companions or his own blood for the task. When Charlie offered for all of them to pull blood together Ronan’s worry and irritancy flared up once more. He’d try and lightly slap the back of the monk’s head. “Of course we’re not going to spill our own. The drunkards probably won’t feel much of it anyways…” Ronan added. Not seeming as hesitant with such at the moment. He didn’t plan to kill the drunkards and didn’t suspect for that to happen, especially if a cleric would heal the drunkard if the damage got too serious. “When we get it open, I prefer we take a more cautious approach. Not picking up random cursed items if something else can be used, and not plummeting downward to our deaths.” Ronan emphasized those two points. “being careful, and quick to subdue them..or perhaps capture them even if there are enemy more people to encounter and being on the lookout for any other dangers which likely are ahead.”
