The next hall was just as quiet as the one before it, but this one actually gave Kratos pause as he passed his flashlight over blood smeared on the walls and floor. There had been a fight here...the question was, between who? He shone his light around the rest of the hall, finally happening upon the culprit--or the victim, depending on how he looked at it. There was no monster corpse nearby, though; had whatever attacked him escaped, or had he stumbled in here from another area?
His mouth thinned to a line. If the injured patient hadn't been attacked in the hallway, he had probably come from the medical wing. Well, could you have expected anything less? The prospect of a fight, even a brief one, was looming, and Kratos's arm began aching in response.
"The medical wing is straight ahead," he said, pointing it out with his flashlight. "Flynn--" He paused to fumble with the tool pouch sitting next to his "sheath" and extracted two of the scalpels he'd acquired while exploring with Lingormr several nights before, which he then offered to the other man. "You're going to need these."
