Infernal Prison [Part 05]

Two metal gates across a single corridor are all that lead to the wardens’ retreat. It is here wardens sleep on night duties, spend their off time playing cards, and sit at the table to discuss devilish new plots to torture inmates.

The area is surrounded by a pool of lava and its windows are reinforced with sturdy metal bars, making it impossible for even those lucky enough to pass the scorching lava to breach into the chambers from the outside.

Weapon racks with spears, axes, and all sorts of other sharp weaponry are positioned at the far back in front of the wall. If there was ever an escapee, which hasn’t happened in hundreds of years, the entirety of Infernal Prison would sound the alarm with blowing horns, and the wardens would ready themselves with weapons in hand. The far end also features a mysterious lever… but what for? Maybe it unlocks all the prison cells. If so, are you capable of sneaking through the gates, finding the key to allow your party to unlock the chamber’s gate, and sneaking towards the lever past dozens of sleeping wardens? It’s your call.
