"Well let's investigate that door then, who knows, we might find something in there that tells us something about the Sphinx or other things."

[Assuming that we are going to investigate through the door...]

Ehldannis will carefully word his spell, his hands placed on the lock and his eyes closed in concentration. Sweat beads at his temples as he continues to concentrate, the incantation running over and over like a mantra under his breath. At last he takes a deep breath and loudly pronounces the last syllable, which is followed by an audible "click" from the lock. He wipes the sweat from his brow and gestures towards the now open door, "That is actually the first time I have used that spell, rather a useful find on one of the scrolls we recovered."
 

Marcus of the the Roma.

Wizards Marcus decides would do rather well as gypsies.

Marcus pulls his sword and steps past Ehldannis and up the the door. His hand is almost upon it when he pauses. Humm.. He gives the door and its surroundings one last look over. If there is nothing suspicious, he pushes it open and, only after it has come to a halt, steps through into the other half of the room and move cautiously towards the throne.
 


The gate October 24th, 8 am

Ehldannis, indeed, succeeds where the others failed. The door opens easily at his touch.

The throne itself, though somewhat crudely constructed and decorated with monster faces and strange runic symbols (indesipherable at this point), is apparently gold plated. Marcus estimates about 5000 gps worth of gold on it.

Behind the throne is another wall to wall, floor to ceiling curtain, made of what appears to be thick black velvet.
 

Tullius stalked over to the curtain, beckoning to the rest to be ready. When he saw everyone was in position he pulled the curtain away, ready to slice into whatever was behind it.
 

Marcus of the Roma

Marcus gets into a position where he can support Tullius without getting in his way. He swaps his sword into left hand, hesitates for a moment, then swaps it back.

"Ready," he says softly.

ooc: If Octar and Dhormium are close, and it looks like fighting, Marcus will allow them to close first. They are much better equiped for the front line stuff. Marcus will attempt to work around to the flanks.
 


Behind the curtain

The party jerks back the curtain. It hangs just in front of a stone wall. In the center of this wall is a double door, a full 20 feet wide. Into each of these doors is carved the face of a beneficent looking human male.
