Eight shadows linger in this chamber,
awaiting the return of Zuggtmoy
and Iuz—
and thereby a return to the days of feasting
and "sport" in the Temple. They are seldom
fed, and are thus weak and hungry
for life
forces. If they hear noise in area 322, they
hurry to investigate.

| This chamber is red. The floor, walls,
and curved ceiling are each of a subtly different hue, to jar the vision of the onlooker. The overall impression is bloody and disgusting. Rotting cushions and divans, all of red cloth and again each slightly differentfrom another, are scattered here and there. A low round table of wood lacquered in orange-red stands near the west end of the room; upon it is a red serving set of several cups and a bowl. Each of the 2 candelabra nearby holds 13 candle stubs. <tallow> |
The red serving set is made of cinnebar,
<the wood, or, the mercury>
the whole worth 450 gp. The candelabra are
made of solid rose gold; each weighs 1,
200
gp and is worth 2, 250 gp if maintained in
good condition, or 1,200 gp if battered,
bent, or dismantled.
