### 170

You climb the spiral stairs for over five minutes before reaching the next level. Here, a tunnel leads off towards the south. You march along the dank passage until you reach a point where it veers sharply to the west. A little further on, a staircase descends to your right.

If you wish to descend the staircase, turn to 228.

If you wish to continue along the passage, turn to 221.
