>Look around
>Since you've left your cell, you decide to reaffirm your new surroundings.
>You are in a large room with stone walls, a stone floor, and a stone ceiling.
>You can see two sets of bars embedded in the floor. You assume that these lead to cells similar to the one that you were just in.
>In the center of the room is another set of bars, or what remains of them after being exposed to an explosion. The resulting hole leads back to your cell.
>Candles line the walls in order to provide light for the room.
>Each wall has a steel door in the middle of it. One of the doors appear to have been blown off its hinges and is now lying on the floor in front of the empty doorframe.
>Next to this door you can see a well armored knight lying face down in a pool of blood. You assume that it was a guard of some sort.

> Mentally asess guard's armor.
> Mentally asess steel door.
> Was guard armed? (aka is there a weapon lying nearby)
>The guard was equipped with a full set of plate armor. Though you can't tell its exact worth without getting a bit closer, you'd make a rough guess at its value being equal to around 25 gold coins if it is undamaged.
>The steel door looks to be about two inches thick, more than enough to deflect most attacks.
>From what you can see, the guard does not appear to have been armed.

> Try to remember more about this prison. If (yet again according to note) we were here for about two weeks, we weren't rotting in our cell all this time, are we?
> "What exactly went wrong with your plan?"
>You received a request from a client to obtain at least fifteen scales from a the wyvern of legends, Adustus.
>Normally, you would have laughed off a request like this saying that the scales didn't exist but something about this particular request compelled you to accept it.
>The labyrinth of Ayrith is a prison that does not show up on any official documentation. If you were to ask the average citizen about the prison, you'd receive the response that it was simply a tale made up by housewives to scare the children.
>The actual use of the prison was for the government to store undesirables that they didn't want to simply get rid of immediately. Anything from mythical beasts including the wyvern you're searching for, criminals that possessed rare talents, an ex-hero that had outlived his usefulness, the prison was designed to hold anything and anyone.
>The deeper you traveled into the prison, the stronger the security would become. You were placed fairly close to the entrance, you aren't much of a threat after all.
>You did spend two weeks waiting. What else what you be doing in that cell with nothing?
>"The stupid labyrinth is what went wrong, the bloody thing changes its layout every couple of days! From what we were told, the next shift was meant to happen tomorrow. Instead, the walls started moving as soon as we reached this room!"
>"We can't exactly lead you out of here anymore given our map is useless."
>The two men let out a heavy sigh.

>See if other doors can be opened without explosives.
>"We're not going to be waiting long, hurry up and finish whatever it is you're doing and then we're going to start making our way out of here."
>You decide to walk over to and test the other doors.
>Two of the doors open with ease. Rather surprising, given that the doors should be fairly heavy.
>Beyond each door, you see stone corridors that branch off in every direction.
>The third door refuses to budge, no matter how much force you put onto it.

>Appraise knife
>Loot the guard. Wear his armor if it fits.
>Look in nearby cells to see if anyone is in there.
>Listen for sounds of pursuing footsteps or cries for help.
>Your knife is a fairly valuable one. The blade is made out of adamantite, the same material as most of the hero's equipment. No corners were cut in crafting the handle, sheath, or holster either, each of these are worth enough to buy a small plot of land.
>You approach the dead guard and strip him of his armor. He does not appear to have anything else of value on him.
>Given that it has a much higher protective value than the clothes you have on right now, you equip the full plate armor over your clothes. It's a bit bulky and annoying to move in, but you weren't really capable of nimble movements in the first place.
>You walk over to the nearby cells and take a look inside. One of the cells is empty, the other houses a skeleton and several plates of rotting food.
>During this time you failed to hear any footsteps other than your own.

>The red haired man gives you a look of concern, while the blonde haired man rolls his eyes.
>"Are you kidding me? Always, always, always the worst jobs. Saints above..."
>"Hey, are you sure we've got the right guy? The labyrinth did start moving, we could've ended up at the wrong place."
>"Of course we've got the right guy, the labyrinth only started shifting after we got here. Are you saying that you doubt the boss' maps?"
>"No! No! Of course not!"
>"Then shut the hell up."
>The blonde haired man sighs.
>"Since we aren't particularly deep in the labyrinth, there's only the odd guard here and there."
>"And yeah, we'll protect you. Right up until we get you to the boss, that is. After that, you're on your own."

>You see nothing of note as you continue walking until you reach a fork in the road. The corridor of the left path is lined with wooden doors, the corridor of the right path looks identical to the path that you've been walking so far.

>Recall what we actually know about the layout of the dungeon and the fantastic beasts and where to find them
>You don't have that much information about the actual layout, given that it changes regularly.
>You know that the entrance of the dungeon is where people of importance are held. People who possess some skill or knowledge that prevents the government from simply having them assassinated.
>You know that Adustus is held captive within the dungeon. It should be held somewhere around the middle of the dungeon, since that's where most beasts and monsters are typically held.
>You also know that several high ranking demons are locked away somewhere in the final stretches of the labyrinth, along with the ex-hero. You wonder if they've managed to kill each other yet.
