[QUOTE="Kamard, post: 528001, member: 2551"] Arin moves to open the door, and turning the knob, it clicks easily and opens on smooth, well-oiled hinges. Nothing happens with the line of salt, or with the unintelligible symbols on the door. Beyond, there is a second level of the sewers. This one seems to ring large vats or tanks of water. The machinery sound is much louder here, and you can see why- a primitive pulley system with bucket-like scoops is used to cycle the water here. The walkway goes around the edge of tank, almost 300 degrees or so to a door on the other side. But between you and it, are five or six groups of the larger rats, and several hundred smaller ones. From all around you is the feeling of being watched. Rats, rats, a thousand eyes watching you. Then, as one, their mouths move. "Humans! You slew our watchmen. You have come to our home! Why?" They seem to take no notice that one of you is a halfling. Maybe it doesn't matter, really. [/QUOTE]
