You climb across the shattered masonry and take cover near an empty window which overlooks the square. Minutes later you see a thin figure clad in red robes, accompanied by six grime-smeared Giaks, enter the square from an alley on the far side. At once you recognize the skeletal features of the robed one: it is a Vordak, an undead spawn of the Darklords.

The Vordak raises a bony hand and immediately its companions halt. Then, with a sweep of its arm, it slowly scans the ruins bordering the square.

If you possess the Discipline of Kai-screen, and have reached the rank of Kai Grand Guardian, turn to 84.

If you do not possess this skill, or have yet to reach this level of Grand Mastery, turn to 129.
