Greg Costikyan presents classic dungeon crawling
Nick noticed a long pole sticking out fo the pile. He pried it out; other objects slid and tumbled.
"Be careful!" Garni said.
"Sorry. You'll never get this in, anyway." It was more than double Garni's height.
"Yes, I will," said Garni, taking the pole. He disassembled it; it came apart into four segments.
"What is it?" asked Nick, as Garni strapped the segments to the side of the pack.
"An elven-foot pole."
"Why eleven feet?"
"There are some things I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole," said Garni.
