[QUOTE="Maidhc O Casain, post: 4883019, member: 29558"] That creepy feeling begins to intensify somewhat as you move to the north. Smaller areas open up to the east and west, and there is a series of shallow steps to the north. Still no other critters visible or otherwise apparent. Small piles of wood and rubble strewn over the ground of both the east and west alcoves (rubble not shown on the map). The late afternoon light coming through the ruined ceiling of the western alcove reveals a huge bas-relief statue of a muscular humanoid man with a pointy beard gesturing toward an enormous mountain in the background, his face a picture of mortal concern. Searching his prodigious memory, Keeland is able to identify the mountain in the background of the bas-reliefs as Pale Mountain, largest of the Brazen Peaks and the site of many fell legends. Aodhán's superior vision reveals a similar statue in the eastern alcove, in this case with the bearded figure appearing on a hilltop to a group of robed pilgrims. The being holds up his hands, palms out, in a sign of peace. Though many of the faces and limbs on the bas-relief have been worn down or cut away, the expressions of those range from beatific to horrified. The Abhac instantly recognizes that the bearded figure is depicted in a manner similar to the way in which the faith of Sarenrae depict their saints, but this is not one of the more frequently honored saints of that faith. The appearance of the subject strikes a cord with him, but Aodhán is not quite able to identify him. [/QUOTE]
