Packrat's Keep (sabraather)

[fourberie]

It’s dark, the lights dimmed through a century caked on the glass in dust and grime. The smell is the first thing anyone would notice. It is a pungent mixture of a garbage heap with mothballs and rot to accent it. If you didn't want a bath before, you'll probably want one now because you can just feel your skin begin to stick in the humid atmosphere.

Once you get past that unpleasant feeling, you'll notice right away at how much stuff there is. All sorts of treasure could be found in each direction you look in. Banquet tables creak beneath sumptuous banquets, the floor beneath littered with gnawed bones, crumbs, and rotting scraps. Broken toys are stuck with their dead batteries and screwdrivers. Random strings hang from empty spaces on the ceiling, long enough for anyone to reach.

Nothing seems organized whatsoever. It piles up to the ceiling which in turn makes tunnels inside of a single room. There's a tunnel to your left, a tunnel to your right, and a tunnel in front of you.

[I am taking them, they are mine now]


[I guess...looking around for anything else of interest, heading back towards the other tunnel]

[YOU GUYS ARE NAUGHTY]

[Which tunnel, left or right?]

[HE STOLE MY STUFF SO I'M STEALING HIS]

[...Right!]

Jars.

Jars and bottles.

Jars and bottles filled with STUFF.

Seriously you wouldn't think that so many jars could exist in one place, but you definitely hit the jackpot of random shit in jars. One pile has all sorts of liquids! Another pile has random foods. Yet ANOTHER pile has random objects . . . and the last pile has . . . dead things and parts in there.

[o-oh, don't want dead things. just...looking around for a key, staying near the entrance]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[fourberie]

[no key, though you might notice there's some sort of opening next to the dead things pile]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[appleofhiseye]

[opening]

[but dead things]

[but opening]

[...edging over to the opening, being SUPER CAREFUL]

[you'll come across a small tunnel that you can probably fit into if you get down on your hands and knees and crawl, but it sounds kind of murky and smells pretty awful]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[appleofhiseye]

[NO, REJECTED, going back to the left tunnel instead]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[fourberie]

[Mmm, the delicious smell of rotten food.

Well not all of it is rotten. There's canned goods and bottled dressing mixed in, but if you look at the expiration dates, even some of THOSE have gone bad. Who knew blue cheese could turn black . . .

There are boxes upon boxes of rubber gloves along with random dish towels in random areas of the room and for some reason, pairs of shoes?]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[appleofhiseye]

[everything is super gross ew]

[checking around the room...for keys and openings that are not gross]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[fourberie]

[well there isn't anything on the surface level at the very least]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[appleofhiseye]

[okay okay I deal with injured people all day gross is not a big deal. Grabbing some of those rubber gloves and making sure they are useable before putting them on :|a ...There are some pairs of normal rubber gloves right]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[fourberie]

[INDEED THERE ARE GLOVES]

Re: THE CENTER TUNNEL

[appleofhiseye]

[PUTTING THEM ON. And tentatively looking around for a key, a door, anything useful or that might stand out]
