At Sutton Hoo Several large mounds dot the landscape here. Some are larger, some smaller. A few look as if they might have an upturned ship buried beneath them they are so huge. It was common practice in the days of the Vikings to bury their dead kings in such a fashion. You stand near one of these particularly large mounds. It appears as if grave robbers have already begun digging a tunnel into the mound, but never completed it. They must have been interrupted. [Exits: w] A piece of iron is poking its way up through the ground here. [2] A pile of dirty rags have been left here. You think you see a glint of gold to the north. You begin digging. You've now opened up a spacious hole large enough to stand in. (HP:333/333 MA:376/404 MV:231 XP to Lvl:1077326 GP:114 Standing)> You open the tunnel. You dig for a while longer, but your hands and shoulders begin to ache. You are far more accustomed to wielding a sword than this cursed shovel. You hit a difficult spot... you pry a little harder. The ceiling of the tunnel above you begins to collapse! You try to run for freedom but are caught beneath the centuries old earth. All you can see is stars! You fade into unconsciousness quickly.

Rough cots with mouldy bedding line the damp walls. The sound of coughing seems muffled, and the nurses who move between the patients with lung fever, with the syphilitic pox, with scurvy, seem like pale ghosts. The open doorway has been hastily covered with a ragged old blanket, but it hardly serves to keep out the acrid smell of fog and salt. The poor men in hospital die more often than not, and women have been known to prefer Bedlam or suicide to staying here. [Exits: e] A tired but still pretty young woman is nursing the ill here.
