After a long while, Lynch was able to regain control of his body's movements. He trembled, wiped the sweat off his forehead with both hands, and took a deep breath of fresh air before he calmed down. At this time, most of the dwarves were still lying on the ground, without much ability to move.
Lynch staggered outside the Golden Hall and found the location of the city-wide alarm that Nimo had told him about, pulling the lever forcefully. Then, a series of whistle sounds echoed throughout the Spider Cave. Many dwarf residents poked their heads out from the high platforms, looking at the mage swaying unsteadily in front of the Golden Hall. Then, the whole city became busy.
