I land in the cavern softly, unlike the two on the ground beside me, i am an elf, my agility is far beyond theirs. Looking up i smile as i see the two dwarves unsheathe their small scimitars. Completely ignoring the broadswords in the weapons rack to the right, i flick open both my wrist blades.
Easily sidestepping a clumsy swing from the first dwarf, i swing my leg around, tripping him. As he falls forward, dropping his sword i drive my wrist blade deep into the back of his neck with a sickening crunch as it slices through his spinal cord. Quickly spinning round i find the other dwarf standing over one of the others who had fallen with me, as the dwarf swings his sword back, preparing to behead one of the men, a small throwing dagger embeds itself into the back of his head. The sword, and dwarf, topples over, dead instantly.
Dusting my hands off from my two easy kills, i take up the note. Wondrously i see such an easy encryption i wonder if it is a trap. The note reads; "The West is the right way".
Turning back to the others who had fallen with me, i ask; "What now?". Still unsure as to whether they are trustworthy, but too mystified by the cavern to take it further.

When people ask me plz because it's shorter than please, i feel inclined to respond no because it's shorter than yes...
