A long trapped hall. One wrong step and the whole floor fires.
An eight-by-eight field of flagstones fills the hall of an assassin's guildhouse. The guild resets the safe path every night, so only its members know tonight's route. Every other stone is wired to a volley of poisoned needles, and the guild does not give second chances.
Somewhere in the walls, a hundred tiny springs are waiting.
