"You want to go down into the crevasse boy?" Lord Fred asked
enthusiastically pointing to the gaping pit.
The little dog barked just as enthusiastically in the direction the man's
finger pointed.
"Do ya boy? Do ya? Do ya? Do ya little puppy wuppy?" Fred added making the
dog wiggle in delight.
"Here" He picked the small dog up evoking a yelp of surprise and fear,
then a deep growl and struggling as Fred grabbed a rope from his pack with
the other hand and tied it to a near by wall sconce while holding the
struggling biting dog against his chest.
"Ow! Hold still mutt!!!! OW!!!!" He tied the rope around the struggling
dog's chest as it growled menacingly and BIT. "OW!!! Bastard!" Fred let go
of the manic raving animal lowering it down slowly over the ledge. He
played out a lot of rope listening to the growls and barking fade slowly
in the distance below, until finally when he was almost out of coils, the
rope went slack. Then it went taut again and pulled forward. He heard more
growling down below.
"Heh. Little nipper playing with the rope." He remarked to himself.
Lord Fred let the rope play out until it was pulling on the sconce, then
he grabbed a hold and slid slowly downward, pulling the rope flush to the
wall of the crevasse with his weight. Touching down in the rubble of the
fallen trap door, Fred looked about. He was in the middle of a narrow
passageway running east to west. The only light from above.
The dog barked from somewhere off to the east, where the rest of the rope
led.
