Erevel and Gavril moved into the tower from the outer pathway. Both were glad to be away from the barrierless walkway several hundred feet above the street level of Neruzavin. The passage led into the tower toward the northwest but soon Gavril's sunrod illuminated a chamber.
Ropey strands of sickly fungus stretch across the rough-hewn chamber’s walls. Vine-like growths hung down from the ceiling, taut anchor lines that crisscrossed the area. It was difficult to peer through the mass of fungus but Erevel could see the ceiling about 40 or 50 feet above.
The rest of the party followed slowly but everyone stayed in the short pathway. Erevel took out a copper piece and threw it at the ropey strands. The copper bounced off the strand which moved slightly like a harp string, the copper clanged off the floor as it dropped.
