The left passage
You decide you aren't afraid of the dark, and choose the stairway to the left. As you descend, the light from the torches above grows more and more distant—and the path ahead darker and darker. You begin carefully feeling your way along the wall as you follow the stairs down even further, and by the time you reach the bottom of the stairs you can hardly see your hands in front of you. For a moment, you wonder if you shouldn't turn around... but then, peering as well as you can into the darkness, you just barely make out a stone lever next to a brazier. The only other thing you can see are two pinpoints of light, seemingly far off—but any light would be welcome here. What do you do?
