You strike your killing blow and send the creature tumbling off the walkway into the rushing black waters of the subterranean river. It surfaces for a brief moment, its arms flailing wildly; then it disappears forever beneath the swirling foam.

Confident in your victory, you sheathe your weapon and take hold of the heavy winch chain. You pull it to raise the grill a few feet off the walkway, just high enough for you to duck under the rusty bars; then you continue along the tunnel at a brisk pace. After a few hundred yards, the tunnel turns to the south. At this point you discover a flight of slimy steps that ascend from the walkway towards a darkened arch.
If you wish to ascend the steps to the arch, turn to 33.
If you decide to ignore the steps and continue along the tunnel, turn to 274.
