As Vandyan’s vile curse echoes around the hall, the procession of Vorka that are streaming from the bell-chamber suddenly slows to a halt. As if awakening from a walking sleep, they rub their eyes and take stock of their surroundings; then they come swarming towards the iron steps. They are quickly joined by others of their kind who pour back into the pit from the archway on the far side. These Vorka are armed with bladed weapons, and beyond the archway you glimpse the armoury whence they have returned.

As the first swarm of unarmed Vorka come lurching and scurrying up the steps, you realize that you must act quickly to stop them if you are to save yourself from being crushed by this reptilian horde.
