directly available to the one that’s just north of
you. You don’t see any other door on this
particular corridor.
SUMALEE: All right, let’s crawl under that door.
MATT: You scoot beneath that door and inside
there, you can see a number of beds. You see four
different beds that are lined up. You also find a
familiar smell: other mice. Specifically, the
urine of other mice.
SAM: Ugh.
MATT: You glance over and in the corner you can
see one of the comforters that has been partially
eaten and pulled down and tugged. There is a
slight hole in the stone on the edge. You can
distinctly smell that there are other mice that
live in this space.
SUMALEE: Is there anyone in the beds?
MATT: You don’t necessarily know if they are in
the beds at all– There’s nobody in the beds.
Sorry. Yeah, nobody on the beds.
SUMALEE: No people to be seen anywhere?
MATT: No, not in this room.
SUMALEE: Okay. What else can I cover? I want to
cover everything and gather as much of the layout.
MATT: We’ll say as you move into one of the other
rooms, the next two, you do notice that there are
two other chambers. This upper floor is divided
into three different chambers. There is the wide
one that has the four beds, there’s one that has
two other beds, and there’s one that has a
singular large bed. This one room is almost like a
master bedroom. You gather this is probably the
room that Lorenzo sleeps in. It’s a wider bed. It
has, of all the other middling elements of
comfort, this one comparatively is more extravagant,
more comfortable. The layers of cushions–
SAM: A Dwendalian king.
MATT: Goddamn it, Sam. Make a perception check.
SUMALEE: Good. 19.
SAM: Semen stains.
(laughter)
SAM: Everywhere!
SUMALEE: That’s what the mice are eating.
MATT: You look up and there is a makeshift table
on the side of the bed, and a stone platter that
sits on there, and the remains of a meal. The
smell in here is old and slightly decayed, like
something had died. You glance up and you can see
some a bit of graying flesh and a faint glisten of white.
SUMALEE: Oh, god. I want to explore. I want to get
closer.
MATT: Okay. There is an edge of the bed that you
can eventually scurry up and use that to climb up
onto the bed itself. The bed is bowed pretty
heavy. The actual bed was wide; whatever weight
it’s carried from Lorenzo is sunken rather deep in
there. It’s a bit of a pit as you crawl across it,
the blankets tossed and folded over. You make your
way to the edge and look over to this platter and
what you see appears to be bones. Bones that are
covered in strips and elements of leftover meat.
