===== Text: =====
Tonight I meditated on the fumes of [[:Myrland rose]] oil following //Steinmir's// successes with the extract.

I asked for the wisdom of [[:Gods#Zelua]], though I cannot tell if I received a reply from her or if another answered my call. I gathered little we did not know—this place was dedicated to the deity [[:Gods#Mors|Mors]], beseeching their blessing.

I was not unable to uncover what they hoped to achieve in building such a vast structure dedicated to the //God of Death//, or why it tunnels so deeply underground, though this structure was certainly built with the help of the [[:Oghmir]] before [[:The Conflux]].

I meditated further about the location, and instead found myself in a cave unlike this one, with branches reaching from the walls like the terrible claws of a [[:Veela]] [[:Magic#Animism|animist]], if the stories are to be believed. The smell of burning flesh offended my nose, my sight went dark, and I was summarily thrust out of my vision.
