 The abrupt turn in the passage towards the south jolts you from your thoughts and back to the everpresent dangers at hand. Peering carefully around the corner, and then down towards the south you see that the passage runs about 100 metres in that direction, before again turning to the east. The lighting here is only reflected light from the corridor behind you. Very quickly it disappears into a shadowy gloom ahead. On the left hand side of the passage are two doors; the first about 15 metres from where you stand at the corner, the second some 45 metres further along. Both doors are of sturdy construction and both show signs of frequent use.
As you peer into the dimness of the corridor you notice a Mutan guard standing silently at its end. In the grey shadows of a small alcove recessed into the stone the creature stands, its body still but its eyes possibly roaming the corridor, all its senses on alert. When you first looked down this passage you did not see it but the movement of a glimmering spearhead alerted you to its presence. To proceed any further you will have to remove the Mutan from the passageway, and you will need to do it quietly at that.

Will you try and draw the Mutan up the passage towards you? If you have a small mirror in your possession turn to section 505. If you do not have a mirror turn to section 96. If you think the tall, emaciated creature may be asleep and you want to try to rush him turn to section 137.
