Dungeon 23 Project - The Ruins of Mount Auyán (Day 042)

Going back to this post

This room is 100'x60' and built of marble and granite. While the room was very ornate, everything is damaged with broken rock and stone everywhere. Also there are lots of scorch marks, as though very high heat was repeatedly present in this room.

The two end walls each have three doors ( three to the north and three to the south) for a total of six doors.

So let's take a look at the right hand door on the south wall, as you face south.  A corridor runs south and 20' in there is a T with a branch running off to the right (west). If you follow the branch to the west it will go 50' to a 30' diameter circular area with a spiral stairway in the center. This is a 4 way intersection as well.

 The stairway looks very odd, from one angle it looks like a standard steep spiral stairway, but from another angle it looks like a slide and other angles look other ways.

What do you do?

If you go down the stairway you travel a dozen steps and then it becomes a slide and you are on your way down. Soon you are traveling very fast and you seen many flashes of light which may be open doorways of levels that you are passing. A long time later, the slope becomes more gradual and you come to a stop at the bottom.

You don't know how deep you are (over a mile deep) or if you are at the bottom of the dungeon (you aren't, it goes much deeper) but you do know that it is a long way back to the surface and the odds of making it out are not good.

What do you do?

  1. Oh this is very very cool. I can feel the fell things lurking in the shadows. I realize I don't have enough torches...

    1. Thank you! I feel like this is a pale imitation of what I do live face to face.
