### 223

Your improved Kai skill saves you from swift death by neutralizing the deadly toxins suspended in the vapour. However, when you return to the door you discover that the lock differs from that of the Grand Sepulchre in one important respect: it jams for several hours following an unsuccessful attempt at opening it. With the hordes of chaos drawing ever closer, you are forced to abandon Baylon's Tomb and search elsewhere for shelter.

If you wish to hide in the Crypt of Juilor, turn to 272.

If you wish to hide in the Vault of Sedron, turn to 331.

If you wish to return to the Grand Sepulchre and force your way in, turn to 34.
