34

The creature is flooded by the golden light of your sword. A look of terror crosses its ghoulish face and it hurls itself upwards to avoid your sword blow. You brace yourself for another onslaught but it never comes: your silent attacker has escaped into a fissure in the ceiling.

Sheathing your sword, you prepare to continue. You notice a low portal in the vault wall leading to a long and narrow corridor.

If you wish to continue along the corridor, turn to 235.

If you wish to leave the vault and attempt to enter the temple via the guarded crypt door, turn to 183.
