Michelle seems granted some respite, as the guards mill around the entrance of the ditch, clearly, they are as repulsed as she was to enter the foul tube. Eventually, two GUARDS man up and and take their first tentative steps into the drainage tube. Shields and spears raised as they slowly moving into the darkness.<br/><br/>"Hey, I think I see a light up there!" The lead GUARD proclaims and now strides with confidence toward the known quantity, his flights of midnight fancy temporarily abated.<br/><br/>In the brief moments of sparkling arcane light, Michelle can barely make out as the tube continues to the left and right of her position. Her arcane enhanced intuition let her see that more of the filth was coming from the RIGHT TUBE, more than likely it led to the castle cisterns. The LEFT TUBE was considerably dryer, possibly an outhouse near the inside of the castle wall.<br/><br/><em>Michelle has 15 MP remaining from spending '5 MP blowing out the grate with FIRE'. The GUARDS are ALERT in their search of the noise Michelle caused.<br/><br/>Three choices are presented to Michelle: The LEFT TUBE, the RIGHT TUBE, or to FIGHT back the way she came.</em>
