Thanking the gods you lay flat on the floor of the Custom's House, a superficial wound to your side the only harm you received from the cunning trap. Upon hearing the tell-tale click of the trap's mechanism you immediately fell to the floor as a swarm of short lethal spears shoot out of the wall to your left. Luckily your side was only slightly grazed by one of the spears as it flashed past.
Breathing heavily from the shock of the close call you raise yourself to your feet, brushing the dust and filth from your leather armour. Looking around, you find your lantern on its side but it is still operable. Pausing for only a moment to relight it, you then move more carefully towards the boxes in the northern corner of the room. Opening them reveals nothing of any value. However in the bottom of one of the boxes you find a note scrawled in an ancient script of the Dwarvendim. In this light you cannot make out what it says but you place it in your pocket anyway and move out of the room.
Stepping over the body of the dead Hresh you walk back out into the cavernous interior of the King's Hall.
