He noticed that the bier it stood on was loose.The bier and sarcophagus could be push aside if he had the necessary STR. But since he lacked the strength, Ren opted to push using magic. With a torrent of water spells, the force of the aqua was enough to move the bier and reveal a narrow, dark tunnel leading to the real Tomb of Queen Aurora.An overwhelming smell of death and decay filled up this dark room with web-covered murals on the walls.

[ CONGRATULATIONS to player **** on getting first blood from defeating the Boss, DEATH WRAITH! ]Ren ignored the treasures he had just got and opened the coffin.
