Your recent dinner of pheasant and cheese tries to find it's way back up but you manage to hold it back with a grunt. In the center of this room lays the decaying body of a slumped over humanoid form now writhing with maggots and flies. *Buzzing, Buzzing* The far wall bears what seems to be shelves that have been carved into the stone which contain books. The 'books' have taken on a mushy consistancy rather like .... bad bannanas. *BBuuzzzzzzz* In the left wall is a large crack from which a small pool of water has found itself lazily surrounding the decaying body. The stagnant pool is centered around the body leaving 1 foot of water on all sides of the rotting corpse. You can see fly larva swimming in the pool and note a dull yet acrid scent being emitted by the pool itself. *Drip, Drip* A small passage revealed in the crack which is roughly 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide forming a triangle like shape with the base on the floor and the apex skewing to the left slightly. The rough edges of this crack seem sharp, almost as if the stone was gnawed by very forceful predatory jaws. You hear the dripping of water echoing from deep within the crack. *Drip, Drip* *zzzzzzzz* You note the feint sound of skittering feet emanating from the crack. As you listen for a moment you determine the skittering is getting closer. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /></blockquote>
