### 50

For several hours you follow an ancient pavement that mostly lies buried beneath the rich black soil of the forest floor. Occasionally you discover a heap of moss-covered slabs; they are all that remain of dwellings built long before the trees conquered the isle. It is late afternoon when you reach a clearing in the middle of which stands a decaying structure of mould-encrusted stone. The building is an immense ziggurat which is so overgrown that it appears to be a part of the surrounding soil and vegetation.

A section of this verdant growth has been cleared to reveal two massive doors of solid crystal set into the lowest level.

If you have the Magnakai Discipline of Divination, turn to 314.

If you do not possess this skill, turn to 89.
