“Not Bren's kind of creeps that keep her from coming down past Level Seven, but the kind that makes me feel like I need a shower after I've been down here for a while.
At the end of a very short hallway is the main chamber, maybe a hundred and twenty feet long and thirty wide. At the bottom, roughly thirty or forty feet down, is a large catchment basin, usually containing a standing pool of oily, smelly, stagnant water, seepage into the dam through the walls and from the bedrock underneath. A ha...lf dozen sump pumps automatically remove it.
