The Ratway

__NOTOC__
The Ratway is a network of sewers beneath the city of Riften. The entrance to the Ratway can be accessed through a door located on the lower concourse of Riften, along the canal. Just inside are two Nords, Drahff and Hewnon Black-Skeever, who are plotting to overthrow the Thieves' Guild. Further inside is Gian the Fist. In his area, there are a number of bear traps as well as an alchemy lab and a cooking pot.
