The Dungeon

In the on going chronicles of The Dungeon, we have a new chapter to write.


With the changing of the seasons, from summer to autumn, it has become apparent that new clothing, more lighting, and added bedding will be needed to maintain a more comfortable environment within the confines of the dungeon. While this is note worthy there is something that only adds to the brilliance and ambiance of our subterranean abode. We now have the addition of a moat. Yes, you read correctly, a moat. At the bottom of our stairwell we have acquired a small lake. In the two days of rain it has risen to an astounding depth of 1 1/2". Jake and I are considering the addition of an arctic alligator or snapping turtle to live in the moat. If the rain continues as it has been and the drain at the bottom is not fixed it will threaten to flood our front room. How fitting since dungeons are supposed to be dank and dark.
