This door opens into a small vestry.
Pieces of broken glass and splinters of crystal lie scattered within. Someone evidently made a fire in the far corner, as bits of charred wood and cloth lie on the floor, and the rafters overhead are blackened with soot. A pile of robes, once ivory-colored, lie in the center of the room. They are soiled and stained with excrement. |
If the party looks carefully overhead, a
bit of whitish color can be seen amidst
the
rafters 10 feet above. This is an intact ivory
robe, with cowl, edged and embroidered
with reddish-pink
whorls and lined with
pale blue satin.
