Ancient was the perfect adjective to describe the state in which the dungeon was.

As soon as Noah entered the cavity at the base of the mountain, he was met with a dusty and decrepit sight.

'It doesn't seem that the magical beasts have reached the surface yet. They should be on the lower layers.'
