Tellerian Hawke
Defender of Oerth
Dewydd's hunch proves to be correct; running full speed, he makes it the entire 550 feet down the hallway without incident, in matter of about 30 seconds. The door at the end of the hallway is slightly ajar, and Dewydd suspects that his correct answer to the riddle is the reason. It made sense; the outer door is never trapped, and neither is the hallway. But a wrong answer draws an attack from the guardian, and even if the guardian is defeated, the door at the end lies in wait, waiting for the careless, exhausted, distracted adventurer to try and open it. But he had answered correctly, and had therefore earned the right to enter the next room, and take the next test, unmolested.
Dewydd muses inwardly:~A fortunate circumstance; the test is probably deadly enough as it is.~
This chamber is 40 feet square with a 50-foot-high ceiling. The floor is polished, smooth brown stone. The center of the chamber is dominated by a black stone obelisk, 20 feet high with a pointed top. At the opposite end of the chamber is a short flight of steps leading to an alcove 30 feet wide and 20 feet deep. Another obelisk occupies this alcove, but this one has a tan, rune-covered surface. A small gold triangle with an eye in the center is located on each of the sides of this obelisk.
DEWYDD: You are the only one here so far... What do you do?
