[The stairs seem solid enough even for Namur, and shallow as they are, they go a long way down.
Eventually, without further incident, they'll come out into a space that could easily be mistaken for the exterior of the building again, the walls beside them stretching away into the darkness. If they choose to feel around, they'll be hindered at every turn by fallen columns, jumbled piles of tarnished metal and the other remnants of the great hall's long-decayed grandeur - but it wouldn't be wise to wander too far, as they'll quickly discover that about half the floor, mostly the half opposite this last stairway, is completely submerged in a pool of water.
The sickeningly sweet smell still clinging to the air down here largely overpowers the scents of mammalian monsters from before, but it's not too difficult for even a standard human to make out the sound of pattering footsteps from beneath the floor - they can't be too far away. Namur can probably sense a decently-sized pack of them, maybe a dozen or so, in addition to that mystery GF-like creature lurking below.
There don't immediately appear to be any other stairs around.
Davies, however, points his flashlight upwards as he squints ineffectually at the ceiling.] Hmm, that's peculiar...
