A wide, rocky chasm splits the ground here. Ten feet down, the crack

is filled with a moat of black, noxious water. Shadowy forms swim

beneath the surface but you can only guess what they are. Attached

by chains as thick around as an ogre's arm is a lowered drawbridge. On

the other side stands a massive gate, which blocks passage to an

ominous castle. Your only other exit is north and the road into town.
