Message: <blockquote data-quote="Phoenix" data-source="post: 2410396" data-attributes="member: 16166">With Twitchy leading the way, crawling faster up beside the ladder than the two companions could on it, Ghost and Taran slowly made their way out of the village and into the sewers once more.Trudging through the filth and sludge that flows freely, albiet slowly, beneath the city streets, the three companions follow bending and winding tunnels for the better part of an hour.Eventually the sight of the dangling elderly corpse that has one end of a length of ropetied around his ankle, the other stuck into something on the ceiling, show the halfling that he had found the chamber that they seek. Most of his body has decompsed and maggots use his flesh as a playground, pouring forth from his orifices lazily.The chamber they stand within is an old domed construction where several sewer lines meet, then plunge into a well that drops further into the depthes of the earth. The walls and ceiling are in poor condition, worse than the rest of the sewer system.From the ceiling, walls, and even scattered on the floor, dozens of elderly men and women (all at least eighty years old) are scattered in various positions of body shattering poses. Shards of bones protrude from ancient wounds, liquidized organs have long drifted away to leave empty husks, and vacant glares seem to look straight through the viewer's eyes into something else, like a dead universe only they can see.The well in the centre of the room gives access to the area where Taran discovered Stephanie, the fetid water pouring into it like a miniture waterfall, taking chunks of human waste down into the murky depths below.</blockquote>
