It echoes two or three times, quieter each time, until it cannot be heard any further. Anyone unsure of whether other rats may have heard soon hear confirming evidence of rodent activity, from squealing to distant scuffling noises, coming from the stairway exiting the Rotunda to the west.Meanwhile, the rat lays unconscious against the back wall. With significant explosive damage to the chest, bleeding from the mouth and labored breathing, it's easy to conclude he is not long for the world.This gives you a moment to see the room itself, the largest open area of any you have seen in this underground structure. Frescos depicting the sort of dinner arrangements a wealthy member of Venza might expect adorn the walls, with diners laying on the couches, 3 to a couch, eating from platters and buffets. Two figures are presented most prominently, one elder male and one elder female. You're not sure if this dining style is practiced any more, but it is surely restricted only to the very wealthy.The only exit to the Triclinium is the Rotunda, to the north.</blockquote>
