The passage turns directly to the east some 20 metres from where you found Morgen's Spear. What confronts you as you turn the corner however, is surprising to say the least. The back of a large tapestry hangs over what should be the exit from the tunnel. From the way it is hanging it looks like it has been nailed crudely to the wall to cover the hole. A loud snoring sound emanates from the room beyond and the smell of rancid meat is almost overpowering. Carefully pulling a small part of the tapestry aside a few finger widths you survey the room. It is well lit even though it is difficult to see exactly where the light is coming from. The room is furnished as a soldier's personal quarters. A bed lies in one corner, a set of drawers in the other. There is a heavy weapon and armour rack near the door and a large wooden chest that appears to serve as a table as well. An encrusted bowl of something like green mud lies on the table next to a half-eaten loaf of stale bread.
On the bed, in a deep sleep, is the largest Hresh Warrior you have ever seen. Its huge chest rising and falling in a regular but noisy manner. You pull the tapestry together and decide what you should do next.

Will you...
Return down the passage to the armoury. If so turn to section 147.
Try to sneak through the Hresh's quarters without waking him. If so turn to section 181.
Kill the Hresh while he is asleep and search his room? If so turn to section 72.
