Dark and still as the mouth of the cave was, Jigano had hoped that they might slip within without disturbing the peace of the abandoned (hopefully) caverns. He wasn't sure what triggered the snapping, but a sixth sense urged him to dodge out of the way as the world began to shake and fall around them in crystalline shards. Too late he saw that his companions weren't so lucky, and he winced at the scrapes and bruises the ice left behind. "Does anyone need Healing?" he whispered, voice soft against the chance of triggering another cascade of the icicle daggers that remained.
At least the injuries looked shallow enough to not slow them down, and he lifted his lantern to reveal the paths ahead. Right, and the tracks of the cart. Left... and no clue as to what its purpose had been. Perhaps it was just a shallow tunnel that would quickly end, some lode that had panned out too soon. Or perhaps it led to areas less well-explored than the mine's more profitable lodes, where there might yet remain something of interest. Something mysterious and half-legend, just waiting to be unearthed. He tilted his head to the left, arching a silver brow (a gesture largely lost beneath his muffling hat and scarf) but waited to see what the others would choose.
Jigano asks if anyone needs Healing. He suggests the left-hand path, and will lead the way if the others agree.
