I immediately started descending the stairs leading down to the 10th floor. This particular one was quite a bit longer than the previous stairs I had encountered, stretching deep into the earth.
But after walking for what felt like several minutes, I finally reached the bottom, and there—
"Oh..."
I was greeted by a massive, sprawling open space that took my breath away for a second.
It was exactly like I was standing in a grand throne room, which was honestly a bit expected seeing as the whole theme of this dungeon had been a ruined castle since the very beginning. The scale of the room was enormous, much larger than any of the floors above.
Starting right from the base of the stairs, there was a long, wide red carpet that stretched all the way across the hall. It was riddled with holes and frayed edges, clear signs that it had been rotting away for a very long time.
