There's no wind, but the mills' sails are turning gently, making not a sound. The fog is thicker here.Ezrael calls on his divine powers, and feels the stench of evil in the air, so strong it almost sickens him. He concentrates harder, feeling for the source of the evil."It's in the ground!" he proclaims, dramatically.The eery atmosphere is intensified when Aramil points up at a window set high in one of the windmills.

It seems to be welling up from there, like water from a natural spring.Curious, the party goes forward to investigate. But the moment they pass the line of mills and walk into the circle, the fog starts to thicken around them. Soon it's impossible to see your hand in front of your face. But they keep walking. Then, suddenly...</blockquote>
