The rat den is a disgusting, musty room deep inside the tower sewers. This is the area that the rats pull the bones of the treasure seekers, so they are able to get full access to all of the decomposing meat on the bones. Around the room are empty crates, that are broken and falling to pieces. Scattered glass litters the floor, broken ale bottles where some of the poor have tried to stay in the den, before the rat's had over taken it. There are torches on the wall, but dim now, as no soul wants to see the what the light would show. There are rat's nests in the corner, bits of straw, cloth and other odds and ends the rats have dug up.

I am a large gray rat that scurries around in the castle walls. I like visiting the kitchen to snack on the bread crumbs. I carry diseases, so don’t touch me.
This place is heaven! You come down here and insult our home and expect us to let you stay? Bad manners! Do you think you can stop me from stying. Ha HA. Your just a lowly rat. What will you do to make me leave? You are surrounded by thousands of rats... can your weak human eyes not see? I am bigger and stronger than all you rats combined. I dont see how this can end well for you rats to be honest. Although, maybe we did start out on the wrong foot how about a gesture of peace between us. Maybe we can work together. If you will help me I will help you.
