The smoke mines are uncomfortably dim. Every niche sound and minor click of your shoes echoes off the walls and reverberates around the room. It is both too cramped to breathe comfortably but too spacious at the same time, as if anything could lunge out from the walls of these treacherous caverns. Twisting and turning architecture coils around you, and your sense of direction gets a little fuzzy.
Finally, you are presented with a fork in the mines’ layout. Two paths, each diverging in opposite directions. Left and right. A classic conundrum for many explorers. To the left is a winding pathway, from which emanates a stench most foul. It bounces off the walls of the caverns and pricks your eyes, forcing you to look away for a moment. To your right, there’s the indistinct clatter of mumbly, echoey reverberations. The sounds are too indistinct to make heads or tails of, but a thick, pulsating sound spills out from the noise every moment or two. Which should you investigate first?
>Investigate the left corridor.
>Investigate the right corridor.
