"Oh, Minsc!" Aerie saw the sword's glimmer, and once they'd realized it wasn't any more dangerous than other swords, she knew exactly who would like it. "You needed a new sword, did you not?"
@Permidion_Stark You have seen a map sooner, but I don't have a scanner and the internet at work was down for almost a week. This pic was taken with my camera.
Alora follows the corridor west and south. 50' down the corridor turns back east, passes a 10' by 20' cubby to the north and emerges into a north-south section. At 10' north there is a wall, so you head south 30' and back to the west for 20' before you come to a door to the north in the 10' beyond. Past that, you can see the corridor make another turn south.
The door is neither locked nor trapped. Inside is a 20' by 30' room. It seems to be empty.
Alora will be very wary going into the room. She'll use a mirror to make sure there is nothing lurking above the door, then she will go in and check for traps and secret doors.
Minsc finds the sword very much better than the one he wields now. Better balanced, sharper and it makes a nice SWISH as it cuts through the air…
Alora suddenly disappears from the sight of the party. When Alora looks around, she sees that the door has somehow shut behind her, and when she opens it, the rest of the party is gone.
"Congratulations, Minsc! A fine sword for a Rashemi warrior," Ajantis pats the big warrior on the back.
He turns back toward Alora just as the thief vanishes from sight.
"Helm, guide your loyal servant!" Without considering the potential consequences the paladin runs toward her last location, hoping whatever fell magics whisked her away will carry him to her aid (assuming, as he does, that magic is involved).
"Where are you guys? Stop hiding. This isn't funny. Okay, joke over. You can come out now? Anybody?"
Alora starts to feel worried but continues to try to convince herself that someone is playing a trick on her. She retraces her steps down the corridor until she comes to the first bend to see if the others are hiding round the corner.
Alora finds that the corridor outside where she is has changed. There is a wall 20' from the door and a single corridor leading to the left (from her current perspective).
Then, she hears something behind her and sees Ajantis charging towards her.
"This is not as amusing as you might have hoped, little one," Jaheira scolded. Alora definitely acted more the child than the adult, and this was probably another of her silly games. She easily could have slipped among the shadows, and scurried away, noiselessly. The problems would arise, should she encounter a monster that was not tricked, yet she lacked the combat support of the party.
"Ajantis! We're somewhere else. That is, we're here but i don't know where here is. Let's go back into the room and close the door and see if we go back where we were."
Alora heads back into the room and holds the door open hoping Ajantis will follow.
"Wait," Aerie interjected. "We should tie it around her waist, and hold the other end while she goes through the door. Then we'll be able to guide her back when she finds Ajantis and Alora."
"It's good to find you alive and whole, miss. It seems you've discovered some sort of teleporting trap."
Ajantis listened intently to the noise but couldn't make anything out.
"On the off chance we've been relocated close to our original location let's tap on the walls and see if anyone can hear us." The paladin draws his sword and begins tapping the hilt against the walls of the room, then pausing to see if he hears a return tap.
If Alora decides to leave the room to explore, Ajantis will suggest she leave a message with her chalk and then leave marks so the others can follow if they end up triggering the trap. Then he will follow her and attempt to defend her if they encounter enemies.
"Wait," Aerie interjected. "We should tie it around her waist, and hold the other end while she goes through the door. Then we'll be able to guide her back when she finds Ajantis and Alora."

The party is at the pink dot currently.
And @minevese, PING!
Alora will go to the west and then head south.

*Looks around*
Where'd the girl go? Did she run off again?

There must be foul magic involved. Everyone stay back.
*into the room and very loudly*
SIR AJANTIS CAN YOU HEAR ME?
Alora heads back into the room and holds the door open hoping Ajantis will follow.

Alora follows Ajantis's advice and chalks a big arrow on the floor then she heads left down the corridor.
"Here's to hoping I don't explode into flames or something. . ."
