They briefly trapped themselves in a cage at the far end of the room, but soon escaped. A more careful search of the room yielded a door into another long hallway that had several [?] along the walls. They continued to the left and found a small alcove before finally entering an enormous room '''[7]''' with several ranks of stone warrior statues. Carefully avoiding these, they broke into the large stone cairn that sat behind the statues. From this they recovered a variety of valuables, including four jade pectorals. Leaving the room, they passed into a hallway that seemed to be a dead end. However, when all four pushed on the stone at the end of the hall it gradually slid back, slowly at first, but more quickly and easily after a bit. The group noticed the stone moved up a slight incline on rollers set into the floor. Before continuing into the next room, Sathul attempted to wedge the stone so that it would not roll back. | ||
