Rae catches the elf in between the shoulder blades with one hand.  "Well, let's be gettin' on with this adventure!" she says, pushing on the elf toward the portal. She follows a step behind.

"Sorry Jaskin," t'Nee croaks timidly. "I have that effect on lanky elf boys sometimes."

"No, it's... okay," Jaskin says, rather pale. "I'm, um... I'm fine."
The group walks through the portal and into a bleak landscape, looking out over a pit framed by gnarled old posts. The ledge is wide and craggy, though it looks like someone has made an attempt to clean up. Next to the mouth of the pit is a handmade sign that says, "Welcome Sigil Prep Students."

"Arrr. Well, we be here," Rae says, rolling up the map and putting it in her satchel. "Ye mind if I be keepin' this? F'r me collection?"

Trivia reaches impulsively for the map, then withdraws her hand. "I... was going to put that in the files. But, I mean, sure... you can keep it... I can probably draw another one from memory. It'll be... almost like having the actual document."

"Well," Calbert says, taking down the sign, "shall we divvy up into groups and--"
"I'll scout ahead!" Drillv says, tiptoeing awkwardly but surprisingly stealthily to the mouth of the pit and peering down. "Come on, guys!"
