"Dungeon with crickets"

edit

I suppose this phrase comes from the Spanish page version «mazmorra con grillos». In old Chilean Spanish, "grillos" is short for "grilletes", which should translate as shackles. So, the phrase makes more sense when we picture that the man was shackled and taken to an underground jail. Veritas Libera (talk) 12:25, 24 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
