Vidar has time to act once more before either skeleton is ready to attack.

His attack inflicts further damage, leaving the skeleton visibly weakened as it readies its spear to strike.

However, when faced with the relentless assault of the remaining skeleton, his efforts falter.

The impact sends a jarring shock through Vidar's form.

The force of the blow shatters the skeleton's form, its bones splintering and breaking under the immense power of the attack.

The air is thick with the echo of his triumph.

In the wake of his fierce blow, the chamber falls into an eerie stillness. The remnants of the once-menacing skeletons lie scattered across the floor. Among the scattered bones the discarded spears form a somber juxtaposition, a silent tribute to the battle that just transpired.

Beside him, the murky pool's secrets remain hidden, its waters too clouded to discern what lies beneath.

To the north, a corridor that bends toward the west, yet the bend is littered with a handful of arrows.

To the south, the familiar bonfire corridor.

The familiar taste of the mead offers a brief respite, a moment of solace amid the shadows of the chamber.

He approaches the pool with caution and studies the murky depths with a discerning eye. The surface ripples slightly, the condensation trickling down into the pool, creating soft echoes of sound.

His careful examination reveals little clarity in the water. The murkiness conceals any secrets the pool may hold. Despite his scrutiny, no immediate threats reveal themselves, and the pool's tranquility seems undisturbed.

The spear is approximately 10 feet in length. Vidar extends it to its maximum reach, allowing the tip to make contact with the pool's bottom. As he maneuvers the spear within the pool, there is a palpable sense of something solid yet mobile at the bottom.
