Landa attempted to climb up the ramp as quietly as possible, but each step sent a clatter of small stones avalanching to the floor.  The noise was deafening to her, and while the orcs were some distance away, she couldn't help but assume that they could hear it too.  As she stood from a failed attempt that had dumped her unceremoniously on the floor she noticed that the lid of the sarcophagus had become dislodged.  The lid lay at an angle, a foot or so open at its maximum.  The interior was still too dark to make out.<br/><br/>She thought she heard, from the hallway, the sound of heavy footsteps.  From above, from the cellar, she heard nothing.  If someone had heard the noise, they hadn't come to investigate.
