The stonework here begins to give way to old catacombs... Or perhaps it is just your mind playing tricks on you.

The air here is damp, and mildew has begun to grow on the floor and walls, making your footing uneven and potentially treacherous. The sunrod bounces and comes to rest in a small puddle that has pooled on the ground, but it is so shallow that the sunrod barely even gets wet.

There are again four cells here, all along the same wall. This appears to be the bottom, as no further stairs are evident. These cells are also empty, except for the remains of a skeleton in the far cell, the wall shackle still locked around its ankle.

"Wha? Oh don't tell me there are other four story cell tracks beside this one... HELLOOOO, anybody here?" He adresses the man in the bag. "Do you know where more cells are?"

"Y..Yes. There are cells all along this building. They're always grouped in four floors of four cells each. These are the low security cells usually used for repeat drunks and those taken in for questioning who still pose some safety risk. I got stuck there because I wouldn't cooperate enough to get a suite above ground. You could just hop over to the next hall and head down to the next cells..."

He seems to be regaining the strength in his voice as he begins to use it once more.

"I suppose it had been too easy, with no guards around... The spies I want are said to still have active allies on the loose, so I assume they are high security? Where are those cells? If they are parallel to this tract I can just blink there, but I need to guess the right distance." He tried to remember the distance between the doors on the ground floor.

The hallways were about every 20 to 40 feet. However, you didn't explore them, so you don't really know how thick the walls might be, especially underground. The old man doesn't seem to know either.

"Close the bag properly for just a moment." With a shrug, Sedrach blinks 30 feet to the left from the center of the hallway.

You take (1d6)[1] damage and find yourself emerging from the wall of a cell you have not seen before. It seems to be empty.

Sedrach blinks outside the cell, checking if the hallway is familiar and if not takes a look into the other cells.

Blinking into the hall beyond the cell, you need to make a Will save.

Nothing seems to happen.

Looking around the hall, you find yourself in a similar dank and dreary dungeon. Having no light, you are not certain of your surroundings.

Sedrach goes one level lower, blinking through the bars and inspects the cells there.

He is already on the lowest level. He went from the lowest level of the last block to the lowest level of this one.

The cells here are again shrouded in darkness. There are two women in the first cell, huddled together in fear at your approach. The remaining three cells are empty.

"Sorry, the watchman this uniform belongs to is somewhat indisposed", Sedrach says with a nasty smirk. "So better answer. Might be your lucky day if you are who I'm looking for."

"That's a shame, I'm looking for someone who definitely did something illegal. Good luck then." He gives them a moment to answer, then enters the next level up.

The next level is again, identical. This one has its own torches though.

The cells are empty.

Sedrach goes up another level, one below the ground floor by his count. Well, with so many empty cells they either have no problem with criminals, execute them swiftly or are too incompetent to catch them. Wonder which.

Three of these cells contain a drunkard each. The men obviously far too drunk to function normally. The fourth cell contains a creature that looks more rat than human. It glares at your menacingly.

Sedrach produces a platinum piece. "Well, this is embarrassing... 10 gold for whoever can tell me the way to the high security cells."

The rat creature continues to glare, baring its teeth at you when you look at it.

"Whatever." It was worth a try once before before entering the groundfloor again and likely drawing attention to himself; Sedrach stands in the middle of he hallway, and blinks 20 feet to the left.

Taking (1d6)[2] damage, you find yourself shunted into the cell with the man yelling about all the noise.
