Ah-shahran concentrates for a moment, trying to fix details into his mind. He then stands, saying, Well, seems we've tested their perspicacity. Perhaps we should press on with alacrity? Let's deprive them of time to arrange unpleasant surprises.
[sblock=Mechanics]Monster knowledge checks on the large rat and the two undead, Religion to identify the chapel, Perception on the stone/altar, History on the throne room, and Dungeoneering to try for a "big picture" idea of where these chambers might be in relation to where we are.[/sblock]

Ah-shahran recalls the images, one at a time, states clearly his interpretation of what has been seen in the scrying pool. In summary, the rats in the first chamber are just that- rats, nothing special about them.
In the second image, the chapel- the place shows signs of being latterly rededicated to Vecna, the dark god of undead, necromancy and above all terrible secrets. Ah-shahran postulates that Lord Frazzle may be a follower of the dark deity. It seems that this chamber also is home to the remainder of the treasures the adventurers seek.
In the final image, the throne room- the undead creatures, the Skeleton and the Zombie-like creature are impossible to identify, and yet it is obvious to Ah-shahran that they are both formidable opponents. The chamber is some sort of replica, the Deva presumes, of the Lords of Rivenroar Throne original room- which would have been present in the original Castle Rivenroar. Clearly one of the families that inhabited this place has chosen to continue to rule in death as they did in life. This is further born out by the banners which line the walls of the chamber.
Lastly, putting the images together, and with a little help from Kali who reports back what he has heard beyond the doors to the north. Ah-shahran believes that through the doors leads in to the chamber with the pillars and the fire. North from this chamber is the chapel, and Lord Frazzle. East from the same chamber leads directly in to Throne room of the Lords of Rivenroar.
Ah-shahran presumes that this is all that is left of the crypt to explore, and defeat...
