The Dark Tower - Level The Second
Though the banter induces a certain itchiness in poor Tesseryn, ne'ertheless, the brave Paladin follows a safe distance behind Wrukaog and the statue of Mitra, while everyone else follows an even safer distance right behind him.
The floor of the tunnel slopes downwards, neither particularly steeply nor particularly rough underfoot, and you walk for perhaps half a minute before the big Orc stops, waiting for a couple of seconds for you all to catch up and survey what lies beyond, whether using your gods-given darksight or the lights helpfully conjured by Brindle.
The tunnel gives way to a more regular stone passage, fashioned much the same as those on the level now above you. To the south, almost straight ahead, the passage continues on around thirty feet to a plain wooden door. To the west the passage is clear for about twenty feet, then is filled with fog. To the east about ten feet away, the passage branches in a gentle curve, left and right around a wall of beautiful white marble.
