Norian manages to convince everyone to take a look, but besides the obvious of "Whoa, too many hands!" no one could figure out exactly what was going on in the graves.
When Sertanian started muttering about Mirtala and started walking towards the door to the south, Graven decided that perhaps you should move on the for the moment. The hallway was nondescript, and as Adis had described, did turn left after around twenty feet.
Turning the corner quickly in an attempt at surprise, you realize why the little creature wasn't able to get a good look at what was in the room. On the far wall is an altar, with a crumpled form chained to the front of it. The candlelight from the altar bathes over several statues between you and it, and you notice with an odd shiver that their eyes are glowing. What they are is only revealed once Adis' spell flares into life: displacer beast statues. Thankfully not THAT lifelike, but still very distressing.
Encounter: Fresco ChamberYou quickly notice a few large rats moving near the statues, and while they're still reeling from the change in light, you attack!
Initiative Order:
Inatai
Dire Rats x3
Norian
Adis
Graven
Karan
You have a surprise round, so I only placed the rats so you'll know when they will move next round.
Features of the Area:
Those statues are impassible. Climbing them is possible, but they're tall enough that you would need to be prone to be atop them.
The altar is difficult terrain.
