Five Star Dungeon

All dungeons are the same, in Merlin's opinion. And he should know— he's seen the dank insides of a lot of them.

There's always a bone-crunching chill. Moisture seeps from above, and the light is on a scale from dim to pitch-black. The half-rotted straw on the floor smells awful, and the slop-bucket in the corner is depressing.

Sometimes you hear nearby screams of pain, or the pitter-patter of rodents.

But Cenred's fortress dungeon is different, Merlin decides. This dungeon's lovely. It's got everything he'll ever need, because Arthur is locked in here with him.
