 Not wishing to risk the chance that the water may be poisoned you decide to leave it and move further down the passage. In truth you could do with the refreshment but there is nothing in Stoneholme that can be considered safe, and reluctantly you make your way forward. As you move deeper into the corridor your torch sputters for a second, water from the ceiling dripping down upon it, almost putting it out. For a moment you are distracted, and in that moment of inattention you do not see the thin blue line of light stretching across the passageway. Before you can stop yourself your boot cuts the beam and triggers a carefully laid trap.
With almost no time to react you lunge forward as tonnes of boulders, dust and filth shower down from the ceiling above, completely blocking the passage and smothering you in its embrace. When the dust settles the only sound that fills the hall is the clatter of small stones and debris rolling down the sides of the rockpile. Then all is silent.

Test your luck and agility attributes. If you are successful with both of these tests turn to section 211. If you fail either one of them then it is here that your quest ends, crushed beneath a pile of stone from which you cannot escape. In a latter life you will no doubt be more successful.
