Using your Kai camouflage skills, you slip away from the departing crowd unseen and hide behind a pillar where you wait until the hall is empty. You then emerge and hurry across to the north door through which Vandyan made his exit. This door is locked and you quickly determine that it is held secure by a combination lock, whose dials are on the other side. You place your ear to the smooth surface and concentrate on moving the lock’s delicate tumblers by the use of your Magnakai Discipline of Nexus.

If you possess Grand Nexus, turn to 297.

If you do not possess this Discipline, turn to 148.
