Rezataur! Minobbit? Naw, not horny enough.

Exploration ensues and interesting things are found:
A steambath/hot tub room with magical scrying and teleporting powers; A set of statuary that compels you to listen to them sing; Nursing dog-women and escort dog-women and a rampant dog-man (soon slain); A magical table of feasting; A set of secret stairs with a full set of of secret stairwell traps; A pair of angry Manticores, now Manitcorpses.
