This wide stone passage is carpeted with a luxurious red fabric. The

walls are covered in a variety of tapestries, showing ancient beasts,

dwarven kings, and epic battles with a variety of foes. Here and there

a statue of an armoured dwarf stands like a sentry. At the end of the

corridor, a stone stairwell with broad steps spirals downwards to the

main level of the dwarven city. A large wooden door is set in the

western wall, and the passage continues to the south.
