Moving into the kitchen area of the Mess Hall you recoil in disgust at the absolute filth layering its every surface. Only a eighth the size of the main hall it is covered from floor to roof in mould, rotting food and the scattered remains of the Hordims' fetid carcasses. In some places vegetables have begun to grow in the accumulated scum. In others, eating utensils have been piled high in sticky oozing heaps only slightly distinguishable from the crud that surrounds them. You smile at the thought that the creatures may very well succeed in poisoning themselves, the lack of hygiene seems positively lethal.
From a quick inspection in the half-light of the fire there seems no reason to remain and you turn to go out. It is then that you spy the leg of fresh looking meat that hangs from the roof in the north-eastern corner of the Kitchen. It is on a hook near the entranceway. The meat appears to be fit for eating, and as you can always use extra provisions you decide to retrieve it. Pulling an unbroken chair over to the corner, you stand on it in the hope that you might reach the hook from which it hangs. As you place your hand on the back of the chair to steady yourself another hand darts out and grabs yours by the forearm. Startled, you jump from the chair. The hand is attached to an old Hresh dressed in a dark leather apron. He is desperately trying to pull himself out of a pile of accumulated refuse and sludge. From the bruising and other wounds about his face it looks as if he has been the victim of a beating, and in the gloom he has not yet realised that you are not one of his compatriots.

Turn to section 73.
