Swordcoast Family Adventure

Citadel Bluewater is nestled in the hills between Citadel Felbarr and Citadel Adbarr at the headwaters of the River Rauvin on the eastern slopes of their valley.  This small citadel is the home of clans Axstraken, Finegold, and Blackbattle, and roughly 500 dwarves.

Finellen and Shieldmaiden Amber are chipping away at stone that has collapsed in on a room of the old citadel on the western slopes of their valley that the orcs captures from them hundreds of years ago (200-ish). It was recaptures the last fighting season and they are trying to clear the orc refuse out and discover what they can of the dwarves that were there then.  They're alone at the start, and all of a sudden the wall they're chipping on collapses.  Finellen falls in with it, but lands largely unscathed.  She starts fashioning the scaffold into a ladder to crawl out, and her mother Shieldmaiden Amber starts lashing up a rope to climb down.  

They meet up, on the floor of the new room, which is below the second level they were on.  This is a newly discovered level, not built by dwarves, and not part of the old wester citadel. They look around in the dark, and the room has a passage leading west and east.  They go west through these unfinished passages, and come to a section where the unfinished changes to finished but of new stonework.  The follow the new stonework for a few hundred feet, and it opens to a room to the right and continues forward.  They hear dwarf voices below.  Finellen yells out, and says they are of Clan Axstraken, then her mother cuts her off.  The speaking stops, and all the shield maiden heard was "That's the deal..."  They hear the click clack of boots on steps, and two drow warriors climb up from that space below with Longswords drawn.  They say in Under Common which Finellen speaks, "Let us kill the interlopers and close the passage!"  Combat is joined.

One Drow goes first, but Shieldmaiden Amber steps back.  She hit him hard with her battle axe.  The second drow hits Finellen for some damage.  Finellen rages and hits him back for some good damage.

Next round, the Drow turns to Finellen and misses.  Amber casts 'Earth Rumble' and injures both, neither fall over.  The injured one drops.  The second one hits Fin but does less damage thanks to rage.  Fin drops the second one.  

They take the longswords, and move forward.  Finellen stealths down into the room, but the dwarves there have run off. The L shaped room has 3 passages leading out.  There is a drow backpack which she takes, a chest, and she finds an ancient gold plate tablet with unfamiliar dwarfish runes carved on it.  They only make a few runes out, but resolve to return the drow bodies and show the dwarves guards there.
