"Sure," Aria whispered, "I'm getting to like these quiet chambers; hopefully it turns out most everyone was at that ceremony and we're most of the way to cleaning out this place..."<br/><br/>Going back through the dining room, they noticed some splatter-stains in the circular area within the table - as if something had been hanging and bleeding there. Did the Sharrans like to see the animals they feasted upon hanging and cut into shanks as they ate? At least, Aria hoped it was animals...<br/><br/>Their trip back through the sanctuary still indicated their thirteen bodies' worth of handiwork lay undisturbed; and the double doors they sought also seemed unlocked. The chamber beyond, of the same dimensions as the dining room, seemed a sort of soft-surfaced leisure room of a sort Kass might be familiar with in the more decadent abodes of Calimshan. Many piled-up cushions and sloping divans lay about in a broad circle surrounding an island of platters, decanters and houkas. The floor here was so thickly carpeted one could've comfortably slept upon it, and the air was also thick with the fumes of the opiate known as black lotus. Aria recognized the spell all too well, a favorite of the many contraband products Luskan's pirates dealt in, and Kass likely would from the many Calishite houkas and braziers the stuff had filled.<br/><br/>This lounge mirrored the dining room with its doors, with pairs to either side. One on the right was open, and Aria went far enough to glance down and indicate that it led to another narrower hallway with five rooms on a side; a mirror to that other hall of smaller rooms - though this one actually seemed silent.<br/><br/><br/>Reactivating her ring and opening one of the other pair, Aria found the room mirroring the kitchen to be a second library-like chamber, though it also had somewhat more the look of a workshop or laboratory; the chalkboards were filled with arcane notations Kass would be able to make out as arcane spell education and research, and the tables here had messier surfaces, with piles of notes crammed in and under tomes. The center of the room was starkly clear, though, with concentric sets of chalked curves and runes; probably something summoning-related. "No magic auras in this room either," Aria whispered.<br/><br/>This room mirrored the kitchen in dimensions; its outer wall had evidence of that a path door mirroring the heavily bolted singe door had been filled in with masonry, but a set of existent double doors near that mirrored the pair at the back of the kitchen.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;"><br/>                     ______                         ______<br/>                    /. . .|                         |. . .\<br/>                  /. . . .|                         |. . . .\<br/>                /. . . . .=                         =. . . . .\            <br/>              /. . . . . .=                         =. . . . . .\                <br/>            /. . . . . . .|                         |. . . . . . .\                  <br/>          /.\. . . . . . .|_________________________|. . . . . . ./.\<br/>        /. . .=. . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . .\. . . . . .=. . .\<br/>      /. . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\. . . . . . . . .\ <br/>    /. . . . . . .\. ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\. ./. . . . . . .\ <br/>  /. . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .X. . . . . . . . .\<br/>|. . . . . . . . .=. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .=. . . . . . . . .|<br/>|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|<br/>|. . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\. . . . . . .|<br/>|___ . . ___/. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\___ . _ ___|<br/>|. .|. .|. .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .|. .|. .|<br/>|___ . . ___|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|___=. .=___| <br/>|. .|. .|. .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .|. .|. .|<br/>|___ . . ___|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|___=. .=___|<br/>|. .|. .|. .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .|. .|. .|<br/>|. . . . . .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .=. .=. .|<br/>|___|. .|___|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|___|. .|___|<br/>|. . . . . .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .=. .=. .|<br/>|___|. .|___|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|___|. .|___|<br/>|. . . . . .|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. .=. .=. .|<br/>|___|. .|___|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|___|_ _|___|<br/>|. . . . . .\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . .|<br/>|. . . . . . .\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . .|<br/>|. . . . . . . .\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . .|<br/>|. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|<br/>  \. . . . . . . . .=. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .=. . . . . . . . ./<br/>    \. . . . . . . . .\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . ./<br/>      \. . . . . . . . .\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . ./<br/>        \. . . . . . . . .\___ _ _ _________ _ _ ___/. . . . . . . . ./              <br/>          \. . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . .\. . . . . . . ./<br/>            \. . . . . .=. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./<br/>              \. . . .=. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .=. . . ./<br/>                \. ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\. ./<br/>                  X. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .X<br/>                    \. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ./<br/>                      ---- - ---------   --------- - -----<br/></span>
