A plain damp room with many barrels of beer and wine.  The room is in need of a good cleaning as the floor is dirty and rats scurry about.
Storage room, Tavern

I am a rat I love to eat crumbs dropped on the floor. I love dark places and scurrying about the castle. The kitchen pantry has the best food.
Squeak squeak. Say maid do you have any cheese for a hungry rat today? What are you doing here, little rat? Are you that hungry? Yes I am very hungry. And to be honest I am a little drunk. I got into some of these beer and wine barrels earlier today. No, I do not like this. I need to clean this place so please try and look for food somewhere else. I won't give these back until you get me some cheese! Give me the polishing cloth back, now! I am very good and my job and I need to clean this room properly. You can't be very good at your job if you let a drunken rat steal your cloth in the first place, now can you? Okay, I will give you some cheese but then promise me you will let me do my job. I promise. Rat's honor my dear. Okay, there you go. You should have enough cheese to share with your friends now. Please leave now, I really need to do some work here. Hmm, I think I'm going to have another beer first. Nothing goes better than beer with cheese. Okay, I will start cleaning now. Maybe you can keep me company until you finish the beer.
