The Dark Tower - Level The Second
Aurion's mystic senses reveal nothing hidden in the room. Overcome with bravery, or perhaps curiosity, the Elf cautiously makes his way over to the black drapes, twitching on aside to reveal a small chapel of the unholy kind. A black, eight foot tall basalt statue of the evil god Set with twinkling eyes stands in an alcove to the south between two unlit braziers. There is a far less ominous door to the east.
On the level below, Brindle and Leisha take possession of the thankfully unsoiled crowns. The Halfling tries his on.
Feeling much recovered, Wrukaog gives the flask back to Valshalla and joins Tesseryn as the ex-Paladin continues to look behind every door he finds, hoping to discover the Belt of Mitra (assumedly a step up from the one he currently wears, courtesy of Sam, with its buckle engraved with grinning goblins).
The wooden door swings open as if it had been practicing ... and everyone is forced to take a step back as the corridor begins to fill with thick, black, choking smoke which issues from the darkness beyond !
