Cautiously making your way around the side of the house to the back,
you pass a large tree, in which a rotting rope and a dangling swing
seat made from a board slowly twist in the breeze. Unfortunately,
your distraction from the swing causes you to overlook the basement
access doors, and you trip across them...
...which wouldn't be a bad thing, except for the fact that the wood is
rotten and you fall into the basement!
Deciding that pulling the boards off the window might make too much
noise, you decide to explore around the outside of the house.
