As the dimness of my surroundings grows ever more suffocating, I quickly pull out a small vial from my inventory and down its contents in one swift gulp. Ah, nothing like the taste of a Potion of Darkvision to brighten up one's day. Or night, as it were. With my newfound ability to see clearly in the dark, I continue my descent into the depths of this ancient ruin.
After making my way down three flights of creaky stairs, I find myself at a landing with a long passageway stretching out to my right and another flight of stairs leading up to the rear. How original, I think to myself. At least I have some chain mail armor to protect my body and a battleaxe to attack with, should the need arise. But alas, I am still alone and have yet to discover anything of interest in this forsaken place.
Despite the lack of excitement thus far, I decide to follow the passageway and see where it leads. After all, one never knows what kind of treasure or danger lies around each corner in these types of places. It's always an adventure, isn't it?
