Sweet William?suggests returning to the jungle cat room.
Opening the door from the burial chamber back to the corridor, you notice the pungent odor of burnt hair. Crossing the hall to the short door, the Half-Orc opens it and the burning smell gets stronger. No smoke or flames can be seen.
Flynn?looks back hoping to see anything else of interest, but finds no more.
(OOC-?The various clay pots of incense and oils and spices are being left behind, correct? Their value doesn¡¯t compensate for their weight??
/OOC)
The tunnel back to the secret door from the Wildcat room is only 3 feet high so everyone but?North?has to crawl.
Sweet William?takes the lead, followed by?North,?Flynn,?Tabby,?Brother
Ashley, and finally?Cerina?as rear guard.
Sweet William?bursts through the secret door back into the jungle room, axe at the ready to chop up any attacking stuffed feline in sight, but
all you find are scattered piles of straw, smoldering bits of fur, and a message scrawled in ash saying, ¡°you¡¯re welcome, headed ->¡± with
the arrow pointing to the door from whence you originally entered.
¡°He¡¯s going deeper after the rod,¡±?Brother Ashley?comments. ¡°Did anyone tell them about the bad air?¡±
Looking around the room, there is a double door to your far left, a single door to the near left, a single door to the near right, and a double door to the far right.
This oddly shaped room is decorated in a cat motif. The center of the southeastern wall is carved to resemble the face of a snarling tiger with hollow eyes.??In the center of the room stands a stone
statue of a tiger-headed man holding a spear.
Hung on the walls are several skins of lions and leopards, tiger heads, and a cat-of-nine-tails. Along the northwest edge of the chamber a large calendar stone is mounted on the wall above a stone table or altar.
Scorch marks and scrapes are scattered about in seemingly random places. Fenn¡¯s group obviously cleared the room of animated constructs.

OOC- you crawl to the Secret door in the lower left corner of the image.
And what do you do?
