Ancient Tomb: Difference between revisions

The explorers passed through more bronze doors and entered a long gallery, the floor of which was piled with bones. 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 sculpted animal heads along the walls. They continued to the left and found a small alcove before finally entering an enormous room '''[7]''' with several ranks of clay 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 stone block 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.
