Entering the storage room, neither Angus or Orchid found any enemies waiting to ambush them. Looking around the room, the two would indeed find their items in their own chests. Besides the other chests that they could easily belonged to the other party members, there wasn't much else in this room, but a few empty chests, two crates counting to about 57 rations for anyone counting, half a dozen barrels of water, and sheleved were 3 bottles of ale and 1 rather common wine. Once the other members of the party caught up to the two, they two would be able to find most of the items that were taken from them. The only things that were still missing was Azzen's signet ring, Aron's familiar necklace, and Najila's Book of Clouds.

As it would just about a minute for people to don their light armor, but about 10 minutes to don their heavy armor. At about the 5 minute mark, at about 60 feet away from the storage room door, a sound of what could be compared to a small bag of coins could be heard hitting the ground down the hall and hurried movements disappearing in the distance. For who ever kept watch outside the storage room or simply looked out to see what was happened, they would only see, from about 30 feet away, a small leather pouch sitting slumped on the ground with a small rolled up paper sticking out of it.

Edit:
Added that there are 57 rations packed into the crates.
