The passage was wide enough for at least two trucks. Few meters in, the tunnel was splitting to left and right. We chose one side randomly, just to soon arrived at another branching. One way was lighted up by torches fixed to the walls, the other was completely dark. I, out of curiosity, followed the dark one, just to discover that it was the one we didn't follow previously, which made us circle around. Then we finally went in the right direction.
There was plenty of light, and I could lighten the torches whenever I wanted, so we put them down.
It was quiet at first, but then we started to catch the echoes of shouts, grunts, and working, coming from the depths. There was definitely some blacksmithing going on, as I could hear the faint sounds of hammers hitting the metal.
With weapons at the ready, we went further. I was leading, with Boris and Will just behind me. They didn't talk at all, probably because of the nerves.
