Delving In The Dungeon: Part 9 “doors to the right of us, doors to the left”
After bundling up the assorted loot (the dwarven armor was no better that what Knute already has), you continue down the corridor. It gets much drier and less mossy after 50 feet or so. A steady, warm, slightly moist air current wafts over you as you walk along.
Erasmus gives his opinion that there might be hot springs deeper down. Periwinkle says that she hopes nothing lives in those hot springs. Pretty much everyone else agrees with her.
After walking another 100 yards or so, the corridor levels out and you see 2 doors ahead, one on either side of the passageway. Both are ordinary looking wooden doors, with no locks. Both are shut. Periwinkle looks and listens at both of them, then tells you….
“I hear something behind the one on the right…sort of a scrabbling around noise. Doesn’t sound like anything big. No sound at all behind the other door. Neither door appears to be trapped.”
