Many ruins built by the  historic Eladrin empire of Kythira dot the borders of the Shadowrift,  and judging by the clearly Eladrin bones lining the walls, this is  likely one of them. The Eladrin civilization on the island was wiped out  in the cataclysm that created the Shadowrift, though how precisely this  happened is lost to history, and is now matter of legend.[sblock="History  or Religion 19"]The historic Eladrin of the Living Isle are said to  have had a deep understanding of the natural and primal forces at work  on the Isle. They purportedly built their tomb sites in places where the  spirit of one of the four elements (Earth, Fire, Wind, or Water) was  particularly strong.[/sblock][/sblock]Heedless of his  companion's warnings, Sir Exsixten advances into the room. The  mechanical knight passes between the first set of pillars just as Cyr  spots the inscribed runes, and as he does so, the runes begin to pulse,  emitting a lambent darkness that seems to swallow up the light in the  room for a moment. Then you hear a massive *CRACK*, followed by a huge  rumbling, as the pillars topple down and part of the roof caves in.Falling  rubble rains down upon you: Sir Exsixten and Jezebel, leading the way,  are badly pummeled; Cyr, who had stepped up to study the runes is hit as  well, though not as severely; Alnar and Ferris however, manage to avoid  the falling debris, being far enough behind to miss most of the  collapse. The pillars now lie cracked and broken, and large piles of  rubble make travel through the room difficult. [sblock="Trap  results"]Trap attacks the entire party:Sir Exsixten (+8 vs. Ref; 3d6+3 damage) - hit for 13 damageJezebel (+6 vs. Ref; 2d6+3 damage) - hit for 14 damageCyr (+6 vs. Ref; 2d6+3 damage) - hit for 8 damageAlnar (+4 vs. Ref; 1d6+3 damage) - missFerris (+4 vs. Ref; 1d6+3 damage) - miss<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2636782/" target="_blank">(Rolls)</a>Newly deposited piles of debris will be considered difficult  terrain.[/sblock]As the dust settles and you finish coughing,  wheezing, and rubbing your heads, you gradually become aware of faint  shuffling sounds emanating from the archway leading north.</blockquote>
