After about 10 feet the wall starts to curve south. The room is about 20 feet wide north to south and you can't tell the distance yet for East to West. There also appears to be a crevice bgenough to enter almost directly opposite you. Opposite the direction you headed you hear a high pitched,yet guttural sound. Almost as if a child were speaking, but far coarser.

The sound grows volume, and as you near it, you hear multiple pitches, and what sounds like it could almost be a conversation. That is, at least until you hear very loud "shushing" and quiet, but high-pitched mumbling. A brief, but fierce outburst is heard, then nothing.

You side-step into the shadows, and hope that you really are as well as you think you are. As for the sounds, you guess that they are basically straight ahead of you, but you can't pinpoint exactly how far.

The sounds you heard have ceased for the time being.

A quick high pitched sound is heard again, almost as if out of breath elderly people were angrily whispering, and the sound is immediately shuffling on the stone floor mixed with metal-on-metal.

You know I can't tell you that. Its too easy to just have me tell you outright where a potential threat might be. If I just tell you they're in the room with you, then you know exactly where they are, and plotting an attack is simple. If I tell you they're in an adjoining passage, then you know that you might be able to ambush them because they won't see you approaching. Its entirely reasonable to think that your opponents may try and hide from you as well.

Assuming your starting from the door you came out of, how much closer are you moving towards the sounds?

As Ven moves forward, she sees an odd mix of detritus in small cubbies that are set into each of the walls. Various tattered rags, straw, and bits of trash are mixed into bits of bone and piles of what appear to be dust. Further along, to the next passage, and where she thinks she heard the sound, she sees a small gnarled foot protruding from the entrance.
