Illillitl quitely nodded, almost proud of the fact that someone appreciated his work. "I shall almost need to do penance for almost being prideful" he quietly thought.
When he and Dulartus reached the cellar, Illillitl pointed to a small wooden door near the back of the cellar. It was almost hidden behind a great oaken cask, but Dulartus' sharp eyes found it where Illillitl had pointed.
The door argued with Dulartus, but Dulartus won the argument.
"I shall need a new door, now that this one has been reduced to kindling wood," Illillitl quietly thought.
Beyond the door was a small, dark chamber, completely empty except for a single barrel in the center of the room suspended in a net hanging from the ceiling. The barrel was marked with the Sygil of the Abbey and also with the universal Rune for [color:"yellow"]Danger! Explosives![/color].
Illillitl waited outside the chamber as Dulartus examined the barrel.
