With his memory jogged, Terek walks down to the end of the hall and peers right. Assuming it's a continuation of the hall, he then checks the door to his left (C 17) and listens for any activity:

Listen (1d20+6=7)

...and probably hears nothing.

Assuming there's nothing at the end of the hall and Terek doesn't hear anything loud on the other side of the door, he asks:

"Chauser. You wanna look fer traps?"

Wow I get distracted to easy...should have had this updated yesterday.

It does appear to be a connection to a previous hallway.

Peering through the doorway you see a hallway that splits left and also straight ahead. Both lengths extend beyond your sight. On the corner there is yet another open door, with another hallway that has the same type of split.

While you strain your ear, all you hear is rustling of your group's gear and deathly silence.

"Straight forward?"

Terek heads down the hall in columns 16 - 17.

Advancing down the passageway reveals an open door in the distance. Beyond the door lie a passage way going to your left and another open door, with a smaller passage beyond it.

The larger passage extends a great distancing, well beyond your eye sight, but just before your eyes fail you, you can see a grizzly sight; the bare bones of several creatures, some humanoid and some quadruped.

Terek walks over to investigate the bones.

Getting close you can see what looks like a total of seven bodies, three larger humanoids, two smaller humanoids and a pair of quadrupeds. As the torch casts its light on the bones, they seem to glisten as if they are wet. Looking over the scene something occurs to you, with this much death there should be at least a few pools of blood, but there is not even a drop.

Further down the hallway there is another pair of open doors.

16 from take ten for know:dungeoneering

Could be.  Could also be criminals undergoing the traditional sentence of cleaning the dungeons with their tongues.  Could also be that the clothing itself is a cloaker hybrid, an undead haunt, or a peculiar construct.  Hard to say offhand.

Chauser inches closer, poking everything. with his extendible pole from 11 feet away 

Search 15 for take 10.  Hate being away from rollers.

The substance appears thicker than water, and it easily rubs off when touched.

The lack of trail rules them out.

OK, looks like it's not an ooze.  Means that it's probably one of those other things I mentioned instead.  Or, like, some sort of vampire living inside a giant walking saliva-filled mouth.

Chauser checks through the rest of the bodies, trying to figure out if they'd put up a fight or been ambushed in their sleep or what.  And if they had anything valuable, of course.

The lack of flesh makes identifying wounds difficult, but a couple of the bones are broken. Whatever did them in appear to have taken anything of remote value, even the possible rags they had been wearing.

Terek carefully steps around the corpses and continues down the path, keeping a look out for anything that might be responsible: Spot (1d20+2=6)

Nothing useful of note here.  Looks like they got ambushed by something sentient enough to loot the bodies.  Can anyone track?  

No?  Well, in that case,  I suggest we move on.

As Danus passes by the corpses, he bow his head momentarily. "Pelor please guide their souls"

His head raises back up as his right hand rests upon the hilt of his mace. "We should still be cautious, whatever did this could be waiting in ambush"

At the end of the passage there is an open door on the north side and one on the south as well. The north door shows a passage that goes to further to the left, while the south door has a passage that extends quite a ways south. The southern passage also has an open door on the right side.
