This is a wide passageway in the heart of the forbidding keep. The

massive dark stones of the walls seem to radiate evil, their surface

reflecting the torchlight with an oily gleam. Tapestries lining the

walls show a hideous horned skull on a blood-red field. Alcoves are

evenly spaced along the walls of the corridor, which continues to the

east, west and south. A large, ornate wooden door is set in the

northern wall.
