Anwyn, followed by Taines, Ulric and finally Caine, descend cautiously into ruined tower's dunjon...
The stone stair is scarcely 2ft wide and uncomfortably steep. It quickly drops some dozen or so yards into a dark, silent underworld.
At the foot of the narrow stair, the dunjon is claustrophic, silent and damp. Before Anwyn is a narrow passageway hewn roughly into the earth and shored-up by questionable masonry. It may well have been closed to the world for years -- or even decades. Not a rat nor any insect scurries from sight.
By the flickering yellow glow of Taines' and Ulric's lantern fires, Anwyn sees a row of stout looking wooden doors facing one another across the narrow passage, two to the left and two to the right, perhaps some dozen yards ahead. Further beyond these, at the limits of visibility a similar door stands defying your progress.
As the party creeps forward in silence Ulric and Caine find their heads almost touch the low ceiling...
