Let's look around the closet for any worthwhile clues about this place.
UPDATE 11
Let's see what the zombie was guarding in the closet:
QUOTE (110) |
There is a lit candle on a stand next to the bed. You take it with you and cautiously approach the closet. The door is hanging open, and the wretched zombie is lying on the floor motionless. You start moving the clothes aside to step in, when something pulls on your neck! You spin around, only to discover that you had caught yourself on a hanger. Feeling a little foolish, you step inside and look around. Clothes are strewn about. You walk in the direction the zombie came from. Holding the candle up, you can make out the outline of a door! There is no keyhole or other obvious way to get through. Test you luck. If you are lucky, go to 163. If you are unlucky, go to 48. |
QUOTE (163) |
You run your hands along the door, knock on it a couple of times, and even kick it, but nothing happens. Giving up, you begin to turn away, when a faint sound makes you stop short. You freeze, holding your breath and straining your ears. The silence envelops you, but you concentrate deeply and can faintly make out a sort of low metallic rumble coming from the other side of the door. Turning your attention back to it, you reexamine the smooth face for a few moments. You place your hands on the door and slide them straight up, trying to get a feel for the dimensions – and then you see it. Straight above you and to the right is a small wooden cache lever. You immediately pull it, and the door opens inwards silently, revealing a tunnel that slopes downwards. Will you investigate (63) or exit this room (378)? |
