"There is a teleportation gate nearby, a friend had shown it to me recently. We can take the minecarts up one floor, and then it should be south-east to a crumbling room near the goblin warrens and south through a tall room. The teleportation code that leads to the city is 7-8-1. Hopefully your brethren will be able to help us, Your Majesty."

When you mention the Gem City teleporter, the Professor starts rattling and clanging. "My young friends, I urge you, do not attempt to teleport into the city of the Gems! They are under the strictest of sieges, and I do not doubt that you will be destroyed utterly and without hesitation should you pass into that place."
((the gemfolk and the porcelain people are two different species, by the by))

"Destroyed utterly by whom? The besiegers or the besieged? Is it not possible for us to convey by word or deed that we come in the spirit of peace?"
And aside to Jaxudyzad: "Er, I understand you have the code to teleport to the gem city, but do you have a corresponding code that will send us back here?"

((No worries, just wanted to make sure))
"By the Gem People. From what I have been told, they have warned that anyone coming in through their portal would be obliterated. I imagine they are regretful at the state of affairs, before this time they were a safe and welcoming respite amidst this dungeon."

((Also here, also just busy. )) To Henry: "Indeed I have a return code toget us back here. My friend Blerble - I think you've met? - is quite a bit more knowledgeable in the way of this dungeon, and has given me those codes." "I wonder how quick the obliteration they threaten everyone with would be? I have a scroll of darkness, if we had some time after we walk through the portal, we could get a cover of darkness and talk to the gem people? On the other hand, what's to say they don't have some kind of a shield that would not even let us get out of the portal... Unfortunately, I do not know of a way to reach the city by foot. Still, I yearn for a proper bed and food and interaction. Frankly, I am and always was a townie.
There is the drow city I keep hearing about, but I have no idea where to start searching. Would you know the way, Professor?
There should also be an island city down the river, where it opens upon a great underground lake. Going there should be easy, we have that raft we built some time ago still ready at the pier, but getting back to here might prove tricky.
Still, going to one of those cities is our best chance to rest and gather some information about this dungeon, the dwarven vault, or any other possible interests."

"I mislike the idea of teleporting into a place where we are so unwelcome. I say we ask the professor for information on the drow city, and failing that, we sail down the river to this island. If we are stranded there, what of it? We have overcome greater challenges before.
"Before we go, though, I would like to make a brief trip up to Level +1 to harvest some noxious blue goo. I believe it would be a powerful weapon or perhaps even a trade good."

"Of we go, then. Lead the way, Your Majesty."

“If you seek wonders the likes of which you have never seen and a powerful ally I know of a place...” of course it is very dangerous.”

The Professor tells you that the drow city is on the south side of the large abyss in Floor +1. "I have heard tell that it is only one of many entrances though."
Henry: Which is your preferred route to the blue goo?
Everyone else: Are you all accompanying him?
