The party members blink away the spots from before their eyes, as vision slowly returns. Looking around, the group gets its bearings and takes in the room before them.
The room is rectangular, 60 feet long and 50 feet wide. When
the characters entered it, the room was 80 feet long, but a
new wall has slammed down behind them, cutting them off
from the western 20-foot section and the only obvious exit.
The eastern half of the room is about 3 feet higher than
the western portion, with steps stretching across the width
of the room in the middle. The ceiling is approximately 23
feet high in the western half and 20 feet high to the east. In
the lower half, where the characters stand, there are three
statues facing west. A skeleton lies on the floor, perhaps the
remnants of a long-dead explorer.
In the eastern portion, to the north, a black cauldron sits
over a fire pit next to a pile of lumber and rope. Also in the
eastern half of the room, but along the southern wall, the PCs
see a wooden bookshelf filled with small jars and pots. There
is another long-dead corpse in front of a small mirror on the
south wall, near the southeast corner of the room. A similar
mirror hangs on the north wall directly across from the other,
but a small piece of that mirror lies broken on the floor.
An elaborate mosaic mural covers all the walls.

So, there you have it....the wall that slammed down has cut you off from the entrance, and there is now no obvious means of exiting this room. What do you do?
