The door opens into a small room in which there is a human skull with jeweled eyes resting on top of a marble plinth.  A row of loaded crossbows is fixed to the left-hand wall, and two small wooden balls lie on the floor just inside the door.<br/><br/><em>Your choices are to walk into the room and pick up the skull, or to throw a wooden ball at the skull from the doorway, or to close the door and continue west, taking the wooden balls with you.</em>
