Salvation Outpost - Chapter 2

The chambers around the group sit in eerie silence. The scattered remains of the skeletons lay motionless at their feet. Peldan nods and holds off on his spells, instead following SheK to the large, double doors. Two large, locked handles set in the middle.

As the mage hand attempts to turn the handle, a curtain of magical green flame drops from above enveloping the spectral appendage. The chamber glows a violent green as the shadows from the pillars and your group dance against the far wall. When the flames stop, the hand is still sitting there, trying to turn the locked handle.

Vice… has no idea. However, his mage hand is still trying the locked door without anymore flames.

With much cursing under his breath, Vice attempts to pick the lock. This one takes much longer, but without the threat of the skeletons, he is eventually able to hear the click of the last tumbler and the door opens. The little gnome finds one of his picks is jammed in the lock. A cavernous chamber appears before them. A large pillar reaches up to the vaulted ceiling. On the right, the other pillar has collapsed. On the far right wall is another locked door. On the far side of the room are two elaborately decorated sarcophagi that sit on an elevated altar. Two large obelisks flank the coffins. On the far wall, a ghostly green hand that looks like flames is painted from floor to ceiling.

SheK steps just inside the room as 37 observes from the door. Vice and Peldan wait expectantly.The ghostly figure lays in the sarcophagus on the right and does not appear to be moving.
