[sblock=OOC]Ti and I spoke about this, and R doesn't see anyone as she goes around the corner. So, per our discussion, we don't need a map, as I think R is merely going to return to tell you what she sees. Given that she sees noone, we all know that she sees the passage continue.
That okay?[/sblock]

[sblock=oc]Fine with me[/sblock]Erdolliel looks around the corner to an empty hallway. Not willing to advance further without backup, she returns to her group. "It's empty up the one side, but there are a couple more doors and another hall. Let's keep moving up the way I went, but you guys should stay 30' back or so." Unless someone argues she does just that, hiding and moving silently once she is in the eastern hall again.

First Post
Kushnak follows the requested 30' behind, obviously struggling not to rush on.
As the group makes it way forward, Nethezar, enchanted by scholarly inquisitiveness, looks at the strange pillars. He suddenly jolts a bit, shaking his head. "Do NOT look at the pillars," the cleric whispers fiercely. "What in the nine hells IS this place?"
The group slowly moves forward. As Erdolliel rounds the corner, she comes to a chamber filled with an acrid, almost metallic stink. The walls consistent of a strange, green rock with purple veins that writhe and dance within it. Six black pillars (different from those in the L-shaped room) form two rows along the length of the chamber. They have a tar-like appearance, and what looks like human hands push at their surfaces from within, as if a crowd of humanoid creatures was trapped within each one. A plain, basalt altar rests at one end.
Two humans, wearing ragged purple robes, stand alert, quietly whispering to each other in a language none in the party knows. They don't seem to have noticed Erdolliel's presence yet.
[SBLOCK=OOC]I had to switch maps to have the doors on it... Because I forgot about them before, we'll say that the door E, S, S of 1 was just open.
Nethezar: will save, 19+ success
We'll start with a surprise round for R, if she elects to attack.

Erdolliel fires at the unsuspecting man. While her arrow finds the mark, it is just not enough to bring the man down. He howls in pain, surely alerting anyone nearby (including the party) that action is afoot.
A previously unseen purple-robed man enters the room from the west. Seeing Erdolliel and the damage she caused, he tries to cast a spell from a scroll at her. Fortunately, in his haste he bungles the spell.
[sblock=OOC]Erdolliel: shoots 2, 18+ hit, 8 damage (weak damage rolls)
Actual round:
3: moves; tries to cast from scroll, caster level check 1+ fail, wisdom check 20+ success (no mishap)
