Editing Beneath Castle Everglory: LEVEL 7: The Tomb (section)

=3.  Second Fresco=

The walls of this 4 yard by 8 yard room have been plastered and the plaster has been painted with brightly colored frescos.  The scene on each wall has been marred by the melting of paint.  Read left to right while facing into the tomb, the scenes depicted are as follows.


Left Wall

The left wall depicts a sunny garden, filled with trees and with flowers of all colors.  In the foreground stands an ornamental wooden pagoda, painted in greens, blues and golds.  Around the pagoda is a pebbled courtyard where small red birds peck at the ground.  Inside the pagoda is an octagonal wooden table, but everything just to the left of the table has been melted away.  PCs who have seen the pagoda in the garden level above will immediately recognize it in the picture.  There is no sign of the strange tree.


Right Wall

The right wall depicts a fine oak-paneled hall, fit for a lord.  The mounted heads of animals line the wall, deer sharing space with a crocodile, a lion, a bear and a rhinoceros.  The long table that runs down the middle of the room bares a magnificent feast served on silver plates, but the carved wooden chairs are empty.  At the head of the table, the paint has run, leaving nothing but a dark blur.  PCs who have seen the Great Hall (Grandmother Chtikrix’s lair) in the Palace level above will immediately recognize it in the picture.
