The passageway widens slightly as it turns a corner and proceeds northward toward a source of thin grey light. Rather than lending any comfort, the comparative brightness only serves to emphasize the dormitory's stark functionality and its notable lack of homely cheer. A few rickety wooden chairs and a couple of iron benches loiter in the corner of the hallway, providing an artless but relatively agreeable gathering-place for residents to sit and share tall tales from the battlefield.
