I didn’t know what an oubliette was, so I looked it up.

It’s a type of dungeon where the only entrance is a trap door in the ceiling of the oubliette. They are shaped like a bottle, narrow and vertical. The word comes from the French word “oublier” meaning"to forget"

So you’re saying you don’t just have an encyclopaedic knowledge of medieval European torture methods?

Huh. Weird.

Encountering a correct use and great execution of POV always makes my day.
