text: You are at the bottom of a spiral staircase, leading up to the surface.  Three, hard packed dirt tunnels branch off from here, each with a sign that tells where it leads.  A notice board full of announcements hangs on one wall.  You glance over it and notice one in particular reminding the whole facility of a mandatory meeting at this very time.  This is perfect!  You'll be able to explore the whole place without being caught!
  
  
  The first tunnel is marked "auditorium,"  the second says "Lab," and the third, "Containment."
  > You go down the path labeled "containment"
  You sneak down the tunnel, checking around every corner just in case someone hasn't made it to the meeting yet.  It wouldn't do to get caught now, there's no telling how many Oalkwardners are holed up down here.  Luckily, the tunnel isn't that long, and after a few twists and turns, you find yourself in a large, dimly lit room, full what looks to be some kind of boxes 
  
  
  It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust, but when you do, you realize that these aren't boxes at all, but cages, just like the one they used to carry Pila's remains through the forest.  What's more, every last one of them has a wooden Oalkwardner inside them, exactly like Pila after the lightning struck her.  Gripped with a deadly cocktail of curiosity and fear, you approach the cage nearest to you and peer inside for a better look.  It's a perfect likeness of an Oalkwardner child, right down to the Paper-Mache quality of it's skin.  The only thing that's missing are the ears, which look like they've been broken off.
  
  
  "What on earth have they done to you?"  You whisper to yourself.
  
  
  Aroused by the sound of your voice, the eyes of the wooden Oalkwardner snap open.  They give off a harsh, yellow glow, lighting up the dim room just a little.  You stare at the creature, stunned, and it stares back.  Then, without warning, it leaps at the bars of the cage, snarling.  You leap backwards in the nick of time as one of its arms reaches between the bars and takes a grab at you.
  
  
  The noise wakes the other creatures and before you know it, all of them are attacking their bars, trying to get at you.  Fear overtakes you, and you take off running back down the way you came. What on earth was that anyway?  What do they want with all these monsters?  How are they creating them?  All these questions race through your mind, unanswered, as you reach the crossroads once again.
