Immediately, Shilana stood between Alkalia and the stalagmite, shielding her friend from any possible harm coming from that direction. The nerves in her hands itched, grasping tightly the sword, ready to strike. Her stance however, revealed not a trace of aggression, just wariness.
"Given the location i think it is quite an apt remark" comes Nothings mental response "that being said, it was perhaps not the best of ideas to announce where we are"
As the group moves closer to the stalagmite the murmur continues as if they didn't hear Tyr's remark.

Alkalia cannot understand anymore about the murmurs than Shilana can, however she realizes something, sound echoes on underground locations like this rather easily, and sounds that may seem far could actually be nearer or could be originating from a completely different location than from where it is perceived.
"Alkalia, if you are done with your heat season do you think you could perhaps stop dominating our guide and let him breath?" comes Nothing comment, laughter clear in his "voice"
As Alkalia looks down she realizes that the ground she was standing on was actually a robed little figure, its head pressed against the hard floor, breathing seeming almost impossible in such a position.
Alkalia immediately moves off the robed figure allowing him to stand himself up and promptly says "I am so terribly sorry, I don't even know how I managed to step on you. And what were you doing on the ground anyways?" in a petite voice.

As Alkalia steps off the figure begins to move and shift then finally it stands and begins dusting itself. It is at this point that everyone notes the figure to be a Kobold "Deekins be fine, Deekins used to be step on, Deekins has grown to like it, Deekins has. I was taking a nap Deekins, why else would i be on the floor Deekins?" the Kobold asks with a chitinous voice, apparently when muffled it produces the murmur-like sound you all thought was coming ahead of you all.

Shilana kept a watchful eye on her friend, making sure she can get between anything that might threaten Alkalia. Her eyes took up the kobold named Deekins in every detail.

Insight:

7 + 7
Just trying to get some detail on the threat level this kobold could pose.
DM: After a few headaches, some failed Insight rolls and hell of a lot of cursing/headdesking Giga is now ready to get going now to see if you guys survive... *crosses fingers*

<Very good, very good! your Draconic is decent Deekins, you sound like you are sucking one of them dragon lasses tits so might wanna try opening the hisses and grr's a little more, Deekins> Deekins says to Tyr in Draconic
"Deekins is your guide, yes Deekins is" he then says in Common.
"Would you like the image of what our guide was referring so you can have a better picture?" Nothing says with what can only be assumed to be a mental chuckle.

Tyr shrugged. <Forgive me, I have few opportunities to practice much draconic outside of 'don't eat me, for I taste of meat pickled in absinthe.'> He replied with a grin.
<That's delicious when smoked, Deekins> Deekins says to Tyr before looking at Shilana <Deekins doesn't really know, Deekins was told to take you to one dangerous spot and make sure you didn't wander around, but Deekins doesn't like that spot.... can we go to a different dangerous spot Deekins?>

a slightly confused look comes over Alkalia's face as she tries to decipher what is being said amongst the group, but she draws a blank seeing as how she doesn't actually know Draconic. She into both Tyr's and Shilana's minds "I hate to be a bother, but do you think you could proceed with this conversation in Common?"

<Deekins could take us to a less dangerous place too. Wouldn't that be nice of him? I'm sure my friends would appreciate that.> Shilana said, loving to be challenged by such a situation, before turning her attention to Alkalia. "I will, but I'm trying to convince him not to take us to any dangerous places, and Draconic does help with that. Second... it's kind of a native language to me."
"I appreciate that, but I really don't understand the language as I never really took the time to learn it." Alkalia sends the message to Shilana and only Shilana.
Tyr readied his blade. "Alright, show yourself, and keep your hands where I can see them. And legs. And tentacles. And various other appendages..."

"Interesting" you can all hear Nothing's comment in your mind, although he does not elaborate.
