'FORGOTTEN CRYPTS' (2797)

Facing the reality of encroaching evil on nearly all sides, the city
fathers and merchants began to seek ways to safeguard the population of
Arkham, in the advent of the city being overrun.  Their solution was to
build a massive underground den, where the elite of the city could hide
in the event of invasion.  Underground tunnels began to be dug from the
nearly solid rock Arkham was founded on.  While building the last section
of tunnel, the engineers stumbled upon a gaping hole, leading deeper into
the Theran rock.  Brave workers stepped down into the darkness. Their
screams were a fitting confirmation to the evil now uncovered.
