[QUOTE="Systole, post: 6016036, member: 93930"] [sblock=Cythera]It's not totally clear whether all the statues are of people that the Architect knew or traveled with or fought beside, though it seems probable. The Ketath are written of in a chapter that precedes the Architect's, so it's quite possible that there was a member of that tribe in his retinue, although Zeyal himself is not mentioned by name. And as Fury found, the Crow is mentioned in direct connection with the Architect. Lucann has a separate chapter that covers the uses of arcane magic at some length. He appears to have been a theurge of no small power, and speaks at length of the uses of battle-magic. Lucann's chapter is relatively close to the Architect's so assuming the Scriptures are roughly in chronological order, the two might have been contemporaries. The last two require a bit of deductive reasoning, but there are references to some of the Architect's lieutentants, who led various regiments under his command into battle. One was said to be "short and stout, as one of the races of the mountains" and "array'd about with great thicknesses of mail and shield." Another was "a woman from the deserts beyond the sea, who danced through battle as though she were a leaf on the wind, her spear dipping to draw blood, and her feet outracing counterattack."[/sblock] [sblock=Fury]Fury finds that the mural is slowly descending -- due to close in an hour or so at a guess. Pressing the wall panel raises the mural fully back to the ceiling, so it's clearly intended as a way out for someone who finds himself stuck hidden chamber. A thorough, painstaking search of the hidden room and the statues reveals nothing: the statues are statues, the walls are walls, and the floor is a floor. Whatever message the room is meant to convey must be in plain sight.[/sblock] [GM]I'll update the map tomorrow with the statues.[/gm] [/QUOTE]
