As the party approaches the intersection
of the corridor there is suddenly a fearsome
growl and 2 enormous wolf
shapes rise from the shadows, 1 to
either side, and move forward.

These 2 worgs are chained to the back
walls of their alcoves so that they cannot
enter the hallway. If the characters have
picked up the scent bags from the dead jebli
in room 18 the worgs sniff at the
intruders and then sit back on their
haunches and watch. If the characters are
not carrying the scent pouches the 2
worgs set up a mighty howling that will
alert Markessa and her guards in room 22
that intruders are here.

There is a secret door at the back of the
eastern alcove. This door is opened by lifting
up on the chain anchor ring in the wall
and pulling out. On the other side the secret
door is opened by a latch which is pulled up.
This passage is often used by Icar, commander
of the fort troops, and the worgs are
friendly with him because he often tosses
them scraps of meat. If the character coming
through the secret door is not Icar, the worg
in this alcove will attack, leaping for the
intruder's throat.
