Nikola: You make it out of the pedestal room with little though you somewhat have to fight with yourself not to look at the crystal again. There is something that just beckons and calls for you to look again but by your shear force of determination you make it out. You rush down the hallway for a little till the nagging pull stops and then you allow yourself to slow.<br/><br/>The tome now rests heavily in your backpack perhaps a bit heavier than you expected but still manageable.<br/><br/>Your nerves on high alert after dealing that... experience with the crystal, you keep your eyes peeled for any sort of danger. About as you get closer to the end whether you are distracted by the events that just happened or something else you fail to see a tile that has shifted out of it spot upward. Your foot catches the edge of it and though you make a gallant effort to remain standing the new weight in your backpack throws you off and you come crashing to the floor. You get your arms out enough so your elbows take the brunt of the fall rather than your face. When you elbows come down on another tile though you feel it give sharply and hear a click followed by louder cracking noise as something breaks.<br/><br/>In the next moment the hallway fills rapidly with some smoke or dust, you cough a bit as you end up inhaling some of it catching perhaps a hint of lemons along with a bitter smell that you can't identify. Your head gets a bit foggy, difficult to focus but you pull yourself up and rush out of the hallway in hopes of getting out before whatever the stuff is knocks you out.<br/><br/>You make it out of the hallway into another room, even though you have left the hallway though your head still feels a bit foggy and hard to focus. Behind you the hallway continues to fill with whatever that stuff is as the weight of your fall broke the release/reset of the trap.<br/><br/>The new room you are in looks like it might have been some sort of secure storage area but time and thieves have obviously done their number. The door lies in a rusted heap upon the floor as its hinges had given way under the passage of time and weight. A lot of the chests and boxes are smashed or opened with their contents gone, taken by those who came before. One thing becomes obvious though as you look around: there is no way out of that room other than through that hallway now filled with... whatever that stuff is.<br/><br/>((putting in a greater effort to search the room will reveal a small untouched box with five crystals or gems of varying colors. Also to be found is a finely crafted still sharp dagger.))
