The Sinister Spire - Turn Results 68

After making sure it was safe, Clint opened the door he had been examining.

The large chamber curves outward on the south end. Within that curve is a gradual stair that leads to a large altar of black stone. The statue of a spider the size of a big bear, seemingly pieced together from bones and fangs, stands astride the altar. From the altar, a gossamer carpet of webs stretches down the stairs and 15 feet into the room, enshrouding a pedestal in the room’s center.

Dargoth retrieved his bastard sword. The fighter dragged the body of the mimic to the nearest fireplace and burned the corpse. Kirlic picked the remaining slime from his person and his gear. Thurstan scanned the room carefully with Detect Magic but found nothing further.

After the battle was over, Clint resumed his examination of the hallway and the first door. A peek around the corner revealed three more doors and a turn at the end of the passage. Listening to the nearest door reveal nothing but silence.
