Karn - Kicks door into splinters

Down a set of stairs, around a long slow bend, and up a rise, he reached the small, round-topped door to Jhoira’s room.

He tried the handle, but it was locked. He pounded. The wood jumped in its frame. He bellowed a call, but no answer came from within. Lifting a massive foot, Karn kicked the splintering mass inward and, turning sideways, won through.

There was blood everywhere.
