What I'm looking for are suggestions as regards getting in, what their secret entrance might be, what guardians they might face, how to portray it, etc., etc. Whatever cool ideas you've got, lay 'em on me! This would happen either this Sunday, or possibly in the next session (probably 2 weeks later). Cheers

That'd be great, but I don't have time to re-read the book between now and Sunday. Plus I think my Dad has it anyway--he reads way more fantasy than even I do. Cheers
