In response to North¡¯s question, Cerina?easily notes the message
scrawled in ash which reads, ¡°you¡¯re welcome, headed ->¡± with the arrow pointing to the door from whence you originally entered. (bottom
of the picture)
North?and?Sweet William?check
out the remaining doors, starting with the arrow and going counterclockwise.
The arrow door is singular, brass, and leads back to the lower levels with bad air. That¡¯s apparently the way Fenn¡¯s group has gone.
Next to it is a set of closed double doors, brass with plaster sealing the seam, embossed with ancient Payit symbols that?Flynn?discerns
represent a message. He translates it as ¡®the dust of ages¡¯.
Continuing around the room counterclockwise you get to the now-open secret door with ¡®traps ahead¡¯.
And a little farther around the room is another set of brass double doors sealed with plaster, these ones carved with the phrase ¡®bed
of xilonen¡¯ embossed in ancient Payit.
¡°Could it be another burial chamber?¡±?Brother Ashley?asks. ¡°Like the copper boat room?¡±
And a little further around is yet another single brass door, bearing the warning ¡®guardians bar the way¡¯.
Finally, you¡¯re back at the secret door leading to the copper boat/burial chamber where you defeated the Doppleganger.
Meanwhile,?Tabby?keeps an eye on everyone from her vantage point in the center of the room, far from statues and corpses
and traps and triggers. She watches keenly, but doesn¡¯t notice anything dangerous, threatening, or spooky at the moment.
¡°None of these sound very ¡®spear-like¡¯ to me,¡± the Priest mutters to no one on particular.
And what do you do?
