Both banks are now ten feet wide paths of dirt and river rock.The late afternoon sun is moving behind the tower, putting the door in partial shadow. Arshen and Liiros step into the shade and try to force the door. After a couple of minutes of effort the lock mechanism snaps out of the door as the door opens inward.The first floor of the tower is 20 to 25 feet across and circular. Two dried humanoid corpses are leaning against the interior wall, mummified by the dry heat. There are also stairs along the wall curving upward to the second floor.Set into the floor directly inside the door is a one-foot square stone that appears to be on fire. Its surface is covered in flames except for where the words, "Say 'friend' and enter" in elvish are painted on it with black paint.</blockquote>
