    A breeze wafts up from the chamber below.

  5. Hall of Relics

    The path to the right leads to the old relic room, a storehouse of ancient treasures.

  6. Haunted Hallway

    Above the massive stone door, a faded plaque reads: "Herein lieth the mortal remains of His Royal Majesty, King Edmund, Third of His Name. Honored Templar of the Order of the Rose Knights. Husband of Cathryn. Father of Edmund, Cecelia, Lorna, and Wren."

  7. Burial Vault

    DungeonFight

    Horrible grunts, roars, and a cacaphony of noise come from the burial vault.

    On arriving: Even to an experienced adventurer the zombie ogre is a terrifying sight. Chunks of his body tear from the frame and slap loudly to the ground as he struggles against his chains.
