The passage is short and you quickly arrive at another stone chamber. Ahead you can see a flight of stone stairs leading to a darkened archway high above. At the foot of the stairs, still upright and in armour, are the skeletal remains of an ancient tomb keeper. A large black sword rests in the skeleton’s bony fingers.

If you wish to ignore the skeleton and climb the stairs, turn to 36.

If you wish to attack the skeleton, turn to 278.
