### 34

Your greatly enhanced ability to see into the distance, and in the dark, enables you to recognize at once that the cave-like opening in the side of the mountain is a perfectly smooth archway. It has been carved from the rock purposefully, and is not a natural fissure or fault.

If you wish to inspect the opening more closely, turn to 143.

If you decide instead to return to the Giak outpost and attempt to gain entry, turn to 86.
