"Our thanks, we will return when the job is complete!"

If no-one else has anything to do or say, let's leave.

I really don't like the sound of anything on that map Thoth gave us, it all looks pretty dangerous ! Our best bet after all is considered might be to head to Ozminster and see what's what. Another option could be to try to find the secret door near the "Ogre" area.

Franklin agrees with Maloof that somehow profiting from the Thoth/Ozminster conflict seems like the most entertaining option. Hearing Ozminster's side of the story might be a good next step?

Agreed, let's go see what Ozminster has to say.

Backtrack North to the wide hallway, West to the corridor leading to Oz, and straight up?

Yes.

Based on the map, it looks like there is only a secret door into the Ozminster area, unless there is also a regular door near the north end? In any case, we'll find out if/when we get there.

"Let's go punch that magic mouth!!"

[Makofan]

The map is accurate. After the south door, the 20'wide corridor goes 20' more before it intersects with a 20-ft wide corridor running North/South. The E/W corridor goes 40' more, then intersects with another 20' wide corridor running North/South. Halfway along the north wall of this short joining bit is a door. You will be turning right here and heading North. Any actions or questions before I continue?

[kipper]

Nope, so far so good.

[Makofan]

You head up the corridor, which stretches as far as you can see. At the 60' mark, on the left side, a 2-incg diameter mouth suddenly pops up and yells at you. "Watch where you're going or you'll get punched in the mouth!"

[kipper]

Maloof cheekily punches the magic mouth (but not too hard, he doesn't want to hurt his hand).
