otherwise. I have just had a bit of first aid for the CS. Does anyone 
have any ability to heal."

> Carlos's investigation leads him to the altar.  The woman's featureless
> face seems to bore right through him.  A strange shimmering seems to surround
> the statue's head.  As Carlos examines the altar, he feels a slight blast
> of hot air coming from somewhere around it.

> His examination is interrupted by the roar of engines from outside.  A
> spotlight suddenly shines through one of the windows.  There's a loud boom
> and a canister smashes through the window on to the floor, and in an
> instant a white gas begins to spray from it.
