These were just being dug when we went into that dungeon.  "Guys", Bax says, look at these.  There, amidst the rest were a group of crosses with some words etched into stones; words familiar to them - Bax, Nytor, Rath, Dzintra, Mournax, Ivo.Now moss covered, it would seem as if the few days the party has spent inside the tomb has turned into several years.  "Gauging by the moss on these stones, and the growth, we've been in that tomb for at least 5, 6, maybe 7 years", Dzintra says.</blockquote>
