They didn’t have exactly airtight building skills. So it’d be something from three days to a week probably.
In the real story the walls were covered in arsenic (?) also the executee has sensitive lungs so not long.
Niter, aka potassium nitrate. It apparently wasn’t easy to breathe in the catacombs and Fortunato had asthma or something. And he was pretty drunk. IIRC Fortunato was unresponsive before Montresor even finished building the wall, I guess having worn himself out trying to escape and/or beg for his life while struggling to breathe the dank atmosphere of the catacomb.
What’s the story?
The Cask of Amontillado
Why didn’t my brain bother to check the title of the post lmao
Edgar Allen Poe’s short story The Cask of Amontillado. Flippant internet synopsis: A guy builds a wall and his friend pays for it.
