With no other structures of significance left to explore, the entire expedition congregates in the Dungeon tonight. Although the Eldercity by itself may qualify to be named a dungeon by adventuring folk, these deep pits and lightless holding cells that were carved right out of the cavernous rocks truly honour such a name. This must have been where prisoners were kept.
Inside the guardhouse, which the expedition passes through to reach the dungeon, stands a table which has had fifteen squares cut into its surface with a knife. Strangely enough, the squares are now empty again. There’s also a small weapon rack that still holds an old warhammer. Down below, there are fifteen cells in total. Inside each of them, strange questions have been carved into the walls.

So far, it cannot be denied that solving the local mysteries has at least provided some insights into the way the Inner Sanctum might be opened. So maybe this locale holds some information as well. The question is if anyone is curious enough to try and figure out the answer voluntarily, or if the majority decides to force someone to try and solve it as a death threat instead...
