Beyond the door was merely silence, nothing could be heard moving beyond it.<br/><br/>As the door opened, Naael would be hit by a wave of corruption and lust, a wave that quickly grew more bearable, only lasting a few moments. Stepping inside, she found herself in huge, circular throne room. The room was nearly a hundred feet across, and a steel throne stood on a dias in the center of the room ahead of them. Next to Naael as she stepped inside was the body of an elven mage, her body perfectly preserved, and her eyes wide, her lips opened in surprise, the adamantine lance punched straight through her beautiful chest and heart.<br/><br/>Around the room were the bodies of nine more men and women, each of them seemingly slain by the weapons of one of their fellows, looking like the weapons were thrown at them from across the room. But it was the center of the room that dominated their vision. Atop the throne was the figure of the Avatar himself, a figure shrouded in darkness and adamantine armor. He would stand near to seven feet in height if he were to stand, and a huge broadsword rested next to his throne, as if it had never been drawn. And in front of him were the bodies of two more heroes, one a human man, a shimmering truesilver longsword in his hands, plunged into the Avatar's right lung. The second was an elven woman, her weapon a spear that shone with the golden light of the sun, also punched into his left lung. And through each of their chests were the Avatar's arms, his hands protruding from their backs, holding their undecaying hearts. The smell of power filled the room, and at her first step, Naael would feel the Avatar's eyes shift, following her...but he doesn't move. He's obviously still alive, but...incapacitated, likely by the holy weapons thrust into his body.<br/><br/>Also in the room, though, is a map along the east wall, one that glitters with magic, and a number of dots cover it. Closer examination might reveal more, but to the north, beyond the throne, is where the secret passage was supposed to be. And to the west was another set of doors.
