> The air is musty and a little rank, the fading smell of

> There is a simple granite slab in the middle of the

> On its body is battered, scorched old-style Coalition armor

> heavily damaged and
> punctured remains of what looks like an ancient,
> non-megadamage shield, lay
> across the figure's feet, and laying upon its breast,
> clutched by gloved
> hands, is a mighty broadsword, though it's bleached
> white, looking like bone
> rather than steel. In its hilt is a nude female figure
> carved from diamond
> or some other gemstone, impressive in every detail, save
> that there is no
> face.

> In the granite slab is carved: "HERE LIES AKIRAX, SON
> OF ENKIRAX, REAVER'S
> BANE, PRINCE OF POUGHSKEEPSIE, UNTIL THE FINAL
> BATTLE."

> The voice speaks again, quieter this time. "You have

>
> Koba's bag suddenly bursts into flames. There is a
> faint scream, and a wisp
> of blue smoke, almost human-shaped, hovers over the company
> before fleeing
> out of the chamber.
