Darkness
fills the interior of this room,
for the arrow slit in this room seems clogged with cobwebs and debris. In the darkness are pinpoints of glowing light, like pale eyes watching and waiting. |
This room is another guardroom which is
occasionally checked by hobgoblin
patrols.
Dust has been stirred up in the center
of the
floor, but lies thick in the room’s comers.
The lights come from cobwebs covering the
walls and ceilings. In the cobwebs are
spiders
the size of a thumbnail, which glow
in
the dark.
They are harmless. This room
houses, in the western alcove, the 2
winches which are used to raise and lower
the drawbridge
and portcullis. Each
winch
has 3 locks upon it to prevent unauthorized
<Open Locks, PH>
use.
