Anaerion's arrows smash unerringly home exploding the Plague Water into shards of bone and detritus.
Leopold feels warmth wash over him and instantly feels some of his strength stolen away by the disease as his joints begin to ache and his skin reddens in seconds!

"Right follow me, now I'll warn you we've not used this route before. We are getting ready to abandon the city truth be told, and we just can't risk our regular routes - walls have eyes and all that. We might need to disturb a few tombs, we're cutting through the crypts of the nobility that was..."
Once you are ready to follow the old beggar leads you through a series of twist and turns occasionally consulting a grubby strip of parchment. Soon the walls change from stone to tightly packed bone optimistically "cemented" together with what appears to be gritty sand and supported by thick but ancient wooden braces.

After nearly fifteen minutes of this you arrive at a large chamber containing three statues positioned to either side of and between two grand carved doorways.
The statues depict a three men, one being devoured by a serpent, one being constricted by a serpent, and one slaying a serpent in mid strike. All three men depicted resemble one another save for their ages - youngest to your left, oldest to your right - handsome with sharp regal features and dressed in nothing but loin clothes.

Above each door in ornate script is carved a single word, Strength to the left, Wisdom to the right.
Javi gives you a worried look scratching at a tumor and scowling. "Ah, we just need to cut straight through here, but ah, its just blank on the map. I'll follow your lead."
