With Scruff protesting loudly, you lift him over your shoulders and enter the Ballax sewer system, wading into waist-deep orc sewage. The stench is suffocating, assaulting your nostrils with a putrid odor that clings to everything around you. The thick sludge squishes and sloshes around your legs, dragging all manner of disgusting debris through the murky waters, from chunks of orc poop to rotting bits of half-eaten food.

Despite the overwhelming stench, you press on.

Eventually, you encounter a massive blockage, a towering mound of filth that threatens to bring your progress to a halt.
