Allevia: Here There Be Giants 2
Borimer transports everyone and their equipment to the top of the hole.
You find yourselves in a large underground tunnel. The tunnel itself is round, as if a lava tube or similar cave, but the floor is also smooth, making it an easy walk. The rounded ceiling is about 15 feet high, making this a rather spacious tunnel. Similar glowing pink and purple crystals along the walls create a dim glowing light.
The tunnel goes to your left or your right.
Directly in front of the hole, you see the remains of the rock, which had crumbled and mostly fallen into the hole. Next to it is what appears to be some sort of lever. A net extends from a pulley above, along with a ten foot long metal pole that is wedged into what remains of the boulder. Apparently, the boulder was used to stop up the hole by whatever inhabits these caves. (The idea is that the rock would be rolled into a net and hoisted so that the hole could be accessed, and then lowered back down. The net and pulley system are very large and heavy pieces of equipment, but clearly something very strong still had to use them to make them work with such a large boulder.)
Leaning against the wall to one side of the boulder, you see the corpse of what appears to be a human. He wears a sword at his side, and his head is bowed, one arm across his shirt and jacket. You see no outward signs of any wounds in the dim light, and the body appears to have been there for only a few days, at most.
