As the glow of your light fills the cave, you notice that the uneven floor is covered with chunks of mouldering rubble, spattered with blotches of dried blood. You are about to investigate a narrow tunnel that winds deeper into the solid black rock when your Kai instincts alert you to a shallow step that crosses from one side of the cave to the other. A closer look reveals the step to be a perfect square of marble that covers the first ten feet of the tunnel floor.

If you wish to prod the marble slab with a weapon to test for a trap, turn to 183.

If you wish to jump across the slab into the tunnel beyond, turn to 127.

If you decide to enter the tunnel by walking across the slab, turn to 277.
