    Dwarves really get the short end of the stick. They’re not “greedy” for digging too deep, it’s literally what they were made to do. Their whole economy depends on mining. What do you want them to do, grow crops? With what farmland? The elves and halflings took it all. And elves never awaken ancient evils of the forest by growing trees too tall, and halflings never face the consequences of their greed in eating too much. Dwarves spend all day working so they can survive, and the stories call them evil. Elves spend all day lazing around in their vacation homes, and if you complain, somehow you’re the bad guy.

      Didn’t the “too deep and too greed” phrase came from Galandriel? She was incredibly biased, don’t believe any of her lies.

        no, they were saved by the S-teir elemental that caused the cave-in in the first place. litRPGs doing their thing.

        CO is 97% the weight of typical atmospheric mix, so yes it’s lighter, but by such a small difference that it spreads and fills a space evenly over a short period of time rather then starting at the ceiling and filling in the space downward.

        Basically, going down to escape won’t work, you need to get away from the area of high concentration.
