The passage ended in a 10-foot high ledge (DC 10 climb check to scramble down) that dropped down into another chamber. A rime of white frost lined the walls and a light layer of brown dust carpetted the cave floor. It was cold enough that their breaths were visible as little clouds of fog. A body sat slumped against one of the walls down in the chamber below the drop.<br/><br/>Zedik recognized the brown dust for what it truly was - a large patch of brown mold. Brown mold fed on warmth, actively sucking the heat out from anything adjacent to it, and was probably responsible for the chill in this tunnel. Though, they usually came in patches a few times smaller than this, as their own cold naturally inhibited their further growth.
