The group tried all the options (well, except Stamm's, obviously, someone kept treading on his foot or elbowing him in the face whenever he was going to stop the flurry of activity to voice his answer).
However, there was simply nothing else to be done, and the group grew dispirited. Stamm rolled his eyes, and opened his mouth.
"I guess that's that then," said Hawk the pirate...umm, slayer...umm, I mean...fearless. "Well just have to go through the other corridor then."
Stamm's mouth was still open at being interrupted, and now so was everyone else's. They stared at him as if he was insane. They then noticed that, sure enough, this room actually had a second open exit. They had just not noticed it, big as it was, since it was not normally there. They then tried to look at themselves as if they were going insane, which was quite hard to do and twenty two sets of eyes (or twenty one and some empty eye sockets) all crossed was a strange sight (especially if Halk has eye sockets). This was why Stamm did not join them, instead looking around in his pack to see if he'd packed the large quantities of mulled wine he now wished to consume at the stupidity of the group. Hawk felt left out, and tried to cross his eyes to look backwards into his pack and see if he had any wine too.
"Yes, well noticed that man," said Tiggy, patting him on the arm - or would have if she wasn't so short and actually a little bit of a perv. It was nonetheless appreciated.
"Thanks, that's why they call me fearless!" said Hawk proudly uncrossing his aching eyes.
Everyone gave Hawk another look, then themselves another look while trying to work it out, then deciced it was too much effort to correct the man and patted him in various places. After all, he was quite muscular and pirate-y looking. Damn that man!
If it is all too much for you too, then go to the wine shop yourself. Don't be selfish, pick Stamm something up while you are there. He likes a Merlot.
Otherwise, steer the party onwards down this new, potential short/fatal corridor. Go to 30 you obstinate person you.
(Stamm was right! We even told you! Don't come crying to us if this ends badly.)
