The Dark Tower - Level The Second
Taking your leave of Omphalos, you follow his suggestion, taking the south corridor out of his chamber, to find yourself back in the cesspit. Though Tesseryn earlier removed the remains of recognisable bodies, the place was but marginally improved by so doing, and you all hold your breath until you regain the narrow corridor to the east.
Trailing along in the single file which is all the width of the passage permits, you pass through a small chamber littered with the bones of the skeletons you slew and the mirror you shattered, continuing east down the corridor on the wall opposite, perhaps forty feet till it opens up into a large rectangular room, perhaps thirty feet wide and sixty feet long, bare of all furnishings, but with another passage leading north, the hint of a stairway descending to the west and an army of undead, whose serried ranks perhaps explain the lack of furniture and other appointments for there's scarce room to swing a greataxe in there !
A blessedly quick headcount indicates about thirty skeletons, three of whom are adorned in platemail, the rest in tattered rags that resemble the garb of merchants, and eight zombies four of whom are rather fresh looking as if but recently raised to unlife.
All have sturdy broadswords. None, as yet, seem to have noticed your arrival, though given their undead state, perhaps it's just that they don't really care.
