Object
Library Catacombs Rats
Thousands of rats swarm through knee-deep water flooding the narrow passageways of the library catacombs. Indiana Jones slips into a rat-choked hole, his paralyzing fear forcing him to carry Elsa Schneider piggyback through the teeming mass. The rodents press in amid suffocating darkness and crumbling stone, their furred bodies brushing skin as torches flicker.
