[QUOTE="hewligan, post: 4671270, member: 19688"] You start moving back the way you came in. The one corridor you didn't search (you were rather busy at the time being attacked by some ghouls) has an all too noticeable and, unfortunately, an all too noticeable stench emanating from it. You cautiously follow the route up this winding corridor, your torches and weapons blazing. This long cave stinks of rotten meat. The source of the horrific smell is readily apparent in the swath of bloated animal corpses strewn about the floor of this place. Most seem to be of small animals and fish, but dangling above them all is a human corpse, bloated with age, hanging from a chain from the ceiling. Three other chains hang empty, their hooks swaying slightly in the breeze that blows through this cavern complex. It appears you have found the larder. It is abandoned, except for the animal corpses that litter the floor and the solitary swinging corpse. Ghouls like their flesh either very fresh (still screaming), or very well aged. The smell is over powering. OOC: I passed my exam, so I feel all clever and self-righteous at the moment. Unfortunately I have another 3 exams over the next 3 months, so very far from the end of them ... OOC: You can move back upstairs, if you wish, but as has been pointed out, there is the closed door you pulled shut when you were trying to escape from the massive horde of ravenous rats. Please let me know if you want to do anything down here in the caverns, or if you want to prepare or barge through upstairs. [/QUOTE]
