Vendrael looked on as the other members of the group hopped down into the hole, one by one. There weren't any sounds of pain, at the very least... And given how things sounded, there wasn't much threat in following after all.

With that, the high elf jumped down, thanking the scruffy man after he had been let down before turning towards the paladin girl. Checking for traps, huh? Well, she was probably better suited to the task than he was.

The elf took a deep breath before rapidly chanting an incantation, a ball of lightning forming within the gap of his tented hands. Noting how the man who had caught him earlier was now launching his metal blade at the creatures, Vendrael quickly shot the weapon with lightning, causing electricity to arc around. Just to be safe, the elf charged and fired a second shot, hoping to exacerbate the effects of his magic on the enemies ahead.
