They slip down and the first one opens into a private sanctuary – no one is in it right now, but it looks very similar to the main one. The door behind opens into a dining hall for the priests. They continue, and the corridor wraps around to the north. They take that and open the door to a large exercise room in progress of being used. There’s even a well back here.
They head down, and there is an alcove that ends in nothing, and finally a door.
The corridor wraps around and brings them t a hallway with three doors off it. All three are unlocked, and have storage for things like supplies, wet goods (including a lot of kegs, barrels, and other alcohol) and dry goods. Mostly it’s food.
They head back to the corridor, and there are two small alcoves to the south. The first has two doors on the right. They open into a library and archives. There is a priest here studying right now. A quick glance at the many musty tomes reveals nothing major, they are on religion, Nabilah, many of her servants, histories of the nomads, and so forth.
The final alcove back here is to a single door. It’s locked. Volcifar tries to pick it and….succeeds.
The door opens into a odd looking chamber. Flanking the door in are two large crystal statues of Nabilah, and the room has quartz tiles. In front is a door and another chamber, and part of the room continues on the right and left beyond the chamber and cannot be seen. No other room they’ve seen appears like this.
The crystal ball scouts the room out, but finds nothing more than two more statues before it ends.
As Alzar walks into the room, the statues suddenly animate and begin to move towards him. They must sense him, even invisibly. In a few seconds, the door swings open and a mage can be seen, with his chamber behind. Alzar tells Volcifar to go check out the other hallway while he fights.
