A Sloping Cavern
   The dark cavern continues to slope down deeper into the earth and sheer
darkness is all that appears to be ahead.  The east wall seems to have a small
crevice in it.  Out of the pitch darkness red eyes appear and disappear like
stars on a clear night.  The vial stench of death assaults the nostrils, and
faint footsteps echo about the passageways.  This place is the sort of which
nightmares are made.
