Initial Text
You stumble onto a guard who looks like he's seen better days. He glowers and squints as though even the minimal light in the hall hurts his eyes.
The way he stands a little too close to you and does his best to loom over you suggests he's looking for a fight. But instead he just waits for you to speak.
