Much of the temple seems literally blasted apart, and Lilliana notes the way burn marks and wrecked areas are shaped. The place was taken apart brick by brick by very destructive magic. You follow the general route that the hooded figures that came before you took, through a crumbling archway and behind a low stone wall... And then...You reach a dead end. You reach a dead end, there's nothing here but a shallow alcove, and a pile of debris and refuse that seems to include the fragmented shards of an old wine bottle, some rags, and some loose rubble. Some beggars kip, probably. However, Delmar detects a strong scent of magic coming from the pile of trash. The rest of you detect a far less pleasant scent. As you get closer, a small eddy seems to stir up some of the trash and there's a faint tinkling sound. The rubbish swirls around and forms a crude face-like shape, with shards of broken wine-bottle for teeth in it's uneven crease of a mouth. It croaks out a faint growling sound, that seems to sound like ".....paaassswooord?"</blockquote>
