Base of a massive flight of stone steps.
A massive flight of spiral stone steps comes to its landing in the midst of
this circular chamber. Along the sides of the steps and the walls of the
chamber, hauntingly featureless statues are set into the stone walls, staring
out from their alcoves with a dark, deathly tranquility. Wiping away layers
upon layers of dust reveals ornate calligraphy intertwined with the immaculate
masonry. The dust soars lazily in the air as drafts from the stairwell mix in
the ebb and flow of cold air. A circular seal of iron is fixed into the wall
here. A dead garghoul lies here, no more than a puddle of bubbling flesh. A
fairly large pile of golden sovereigns twinkles and gleams.
You see exits leading northeast, northwest, and up.

The entire area had monolith sigils. Now it has invisible monolith sigils... and yes, they still work in their "you can't see me but I'm still stopping spores" agenda.
Ixion2005-10-07 00:05:32
They aren't invisible, use your head and you might figure it out.
Ethelon2005-10-07 01:10:48
Yeah, I noticed this problem when I tried to spores away while fighting two garghasts and a garghoul and had Malicia, Narsrim jump me.
Archthron2005-10-07 02:16:11
So, I'm guessing it's that circular iron seal, yes?
Narsrim2005-10-07 02:19:30
The monoliths were in trees; however, there were no trees in the area at that point... oh well, problem solved regardless. Thanks for the free comms.
