Hall of Infinite Doors

You drop the dwarf and hand him back his key. You give him a nasty stare, then cross the bridge.

"I didn't cheat!" you call over your shoulder back to him.

"Ya, ya," the dwarf shouts, "And if you ever pick me up like that again, I'll throw you straight off this bridge!"

The day soon fades into evening, and the cold creeps up into your bones. You realize you need to find some shelter, and if possible, build a fire. You have left the bones far behind and are entering the beginings of a forest. The tall trees before you look frightening in the dark, but you know if you need to find shelter, the forest would be the place to look. You can only hope that you're heading the right way, to the village or town that Sigord described.

After an hour of searching, you find a hollow in an enormous tree which will sufice as a shelter. You sit yourself down, clutch your knees to your chest, and attempt to fall asleep. You are so cold though, and after a while you know that you will need to find some way of warming yourself.

You almost scream as a large, black bug leaps onto your knee.
