The Domed Chamber of Lanterns, The Whispering Cairn
Light Rain but clearing, chilly, moderate winds form southwest

Having explored down the hole into a series of chambers below our Heroes find themselves back in the domed Chamber of the Lanterns. The winds have picked up and the whispering from the entrance corridor can just be heard if one steps outside the circular chamber. Almost as if this place has been designed to be quiet and shielded from the echoing chorus of creepy sounds.

The Heroes have learned that the sarcophagus is the trigger to open an elevator mechanism with two possible locations; one a chamber 80’ below where the mechanism malfunctioned and the other to an unknown location. Throughout the Cairn, the Heroes have found evidence of a previous Adventuring Company that apparently met their match in some of the traps below; lucky for the Heroes some of these traps have already been triggered.

Hein and others have found a possible additional exit from the Chamber. From the bones on the ground in the corridor with the Blue Lantern, Hein has noticed a ledge about 50' up from the ground. From examination of the bones the Heroes have surmised that the poor soul fell to his death right here.

Step carefully should you continue to explore this ancient burial Cairn.
