After the Dwarves escaped the Kobold's Nest, the majority of the Kobolds returned to tend to their duties.
However, when the guards of the prison returned to their posts, they noticed that all of their captives had escaped. This immediately brought a new round of alarms that could be heard through the entirety of the nest.
The expressions of Lux and the other Dwarves turned serious. They didn't know why the Kobolds raised the alarms. However, they all knew that this was a dangerous time for all of them.
Just as the Half-Elf had expected, the Kobolds performed a thorough search for the prisoners that had escaped from their cages. They looked in every nook and cranny of their nest, with the exception of the dump site where they threw their trash.
For them, going there was a waste of time, and they didn't believe that the Dwarves would go to that place to hide.
An hour passed then two, followed by the third.
