Re: The Test of the Faithful - 4
You squeeze down into the area with the other gnomes, and are followed by your gnomes. Together, you go through the open doorway, similar to the others but slightly crumbled after the ceiling collapse, and enter the interior chamber.
The chamber is hexagonal in shape, about 50 feet across. The floor is made of glassy marble in one solid, slightly convex shape, bulging slightly in the center. Above you, there is only darkness, unpenetrable by your light. Like the previous area of darkness, it appears to be a magical construct of some kind. In the center, you see a familiar dragon-shaped pedestal. This one has a pink, glowing gem in its maw.
You hear behind you the crackling sound of the beetles shocking and dissolving the web to get to you.
