Kasarian escorts you into the fort’s inner keep. At its centre there is a staircase which leads down to a massive stone door.

‘Beyond this portal lies a maze of catacombs. They spread for miles in all directions. This fort was built upon this ancient burial site. This is the securest place I know for the Khea-khan to stay until you are able to continue your journey to Tazhan.’

If you wish to help escort the Imperial Family from the caravan to the catacombs, turn to 4.

If you choose instead to offer aid to the wounded garrison soldiers, turn to 89.
