	The stream empties out into a weed-choked pond some 30 yards across. Fragrant white lilies grow on the surface, somewhat masking the scent of wet vegetation rotting. A population of eyeless, grey frogs sits on pads or swim in the water and small insects skip across the pond’s surface.		The stream empties out into a weed-choked pond some 30 yards across.

	Funganoids have no treasure as most humanoids understand it, but what they do have is a great pile of leaves heaped around the trunk of an oak old tree. The leaves on the ground are of no value, but the holes in the tree are packed with various herbal concoctions. There are 5 doses of Paut ($135, 0.5 lb each.), 2 Anti-Toxins ($20, 0.5 lb. each) and 2 Invisibility Potions ($2,250, 0.5 lb. each). Identifying them will require a roll against Herb Lore.

	The stairwell opens up onto what looks to be a sunlit wilderness, housed in a great cavern. A blazing white sphere three yards across, located just beneath the cavern roof 30 yards above, radiates both heat and light. Long grass grows on the plain at the foot of the stairs, while further off is a broad pond and a forest of trees. In the middle of the plain stands what looks to be a white statue.

	Closer examination of the “sun” by flying characters will reveal that it is a magic glass ball hanging on an iron chain that is bolted into the cavern roof. The ball has DR 5, but if DR is penetrated, it will be shattered and destroyed, plunging the cavern into darkness. Since all of the denizens of the cavern rely heavily on senses other than sight, this will not disadvantage them in combat. On the other hand, the loss of the sun is an ecological disaster and all of the plants will be dead within a week, forcing the animals to yield their territory and move upstairs somewhere.

	An opening in the southern wall of the cavern leads to a broad stone stairway 5 yards wide, spiraling downwards. The stonework is particularly fine, with the smooth blocks fitting perfectly together, but the walls are mossy and grow progressively mossier as the characters descend. After descending 10 yards, the PCs will arrive at the landing where the Chest Monster lurks. 20 yards lower than that, at a depth where the walls are thick with moss, is the arched entryway to Level 5, Room 1.
