Re: Snakes and Ladders
After a short hallway, you come into what was once probably another bedroom.
The bed on one wall has been broken into pieces. Now a moldy mattress lays on the rubble and the floor.
Propped on the mattress is, unsurprisingly, a corpse. But this one seems to have been treated much differently than the others you've seen.
It is a man. Probably a warrior when he was alive. He wears old plate, a large battle axe resting between his hands. He seems well preserved. From the state of the flesh he could have died yesterday. From the state of the armor, he's been dead decades.
Surrounding his resting place get it?, dried flowers have been heaped. At each corner of the mattress, a severed and mumified hand has been set onto the floor. Each hand holds a candle which gutters. The smoke from the candles fills the air with a sweet honeysuckle kind of scent.
There isn't anything else of interest in the room.
