[Dusty halls and hidden passages are common in castles used for abduction or answers. Dave had walked the length of Derse before to peer into the heavens. If by heavens he meant the horror laden nightmare that was the ring. He'd been pressing and testing doors to see if he could find an answer.

The nightmares had reopened his knowledge that the universe wasn't going to let him and his find peace. Not yet.

Being taken away hadn't been something he'd expected but he hadn't flipped out or cried about it either. It was useless emotions he didn't have time for.

Creepy places mean trouble. A hall with no way to hide in the middle and two open ways at the front and back, is a bad idea. All the same he walks into it and studies the hanging warnings that jump scares are in the future. 'What did you do for them'. Right.]

Cryptic answers, I didn't miss this at all. If there's any stupid puzzles or riddles that tell you about some legendary weapon to fix it all, I'm out. Any ass backwards end of the world crap I'm not even bothering with.
