After resting the party presses on further into the crypt.
You round a corner and come into a roughly octagonal room that is divided by a thick wall. The area does not resemble the labyrinth’s confusing, rough passages.
A yawning pit opens in the floor here, and in it is the body of a young female in a light chain shirt. She has auburn hair and fine features, her ears suggesting elf heritage but her height and build suggest human ancestry as well. Her equipment indicates she was an explorer of some sort.
Clint notices that she still appears to be breathing.
A look around the corner to the east reveals another chamber. The smell of blood and entrails reaches you from this large, oddly shaped room. A hobgoblin lies at your feet, twisted and broken in death. Dark spatters and smears point toward another body near the center of the room. Beyond it is a pile of rubble that might once have been a stone table or platform. To the north, a set of stone doors lies in shambles, their frame forming a dark opening to what might be a stairway. The most prominent features of the room are two large light-colored metal statues, one to the southeast and one to the northwest. Dried blood is visible around what look like compartment doors in each statue’s chest.
