Told from the point of view of Gorfirion. I should seen it coming too...

Our group follows troll down hatch...
All they all RIP except for me!  :-(  Or mobripped in warrens.
The problem in my opinion was twofold.  Mainly, Grunganator
entering while he must have been on low hps, and also the rest of us
didn't know he was just going to go straight down without warning.
Also if it wasn't for my damn line of sights, the first troll would have
RIPped for sure and then none of us would have died probably.

The way I see it, if I had just thought about where we were, I could/should/woulda but didn't spam "close hatch".  And then, if I could flee, I know my way around warrens well enough to mobrip to a grey troll, or get and spam my way back to Rivendell.
