303
Further along the tunnel lies a cavern, empty save for a mass of squeaking bats hanging from the stalactites in the roof. At your approach they begin to panic. They swarm and encircle the rough-hewn walls before diving into a dark crevasse that splits the floor in two. The only exit, other than the tunnel by which you entered, is a passage on the far side of the crevasse. Foul air rises from the dark abyss, laden with a heavy odour that reminds you of maggoty meat.
If you have completed the Lore-circle of the Spirit and the Lore-circle of Solaris, turn to 315.
If you wish to approach the crevasse and look for a way to get across, turn to 44.
If you decide to abandon the chamber and attempt to retrace your route back to the Giak outpost, turn to 206.
