Mark is successfully sneak around the Troll and search these quarters. Unfortunately, it seems as though this area was popular because it is where these creatures live. You see signs of both the Troll and the Dolgrim's having inhabited these quarters. However, in one wall you notice something underneath the moss. You brush it away and find a mural painted onto the wall. Clearly very old, you discern that it once depicted five blood-spattered blades crossed together.
Ok, in that case, Elero will keep the Protector Cannon, regaining his spell slot. He'll try to quietly search around, and the Protector Cannon will pulse out temp HP.
((how long will the troll be asleep? and do we think we need to take care of it anyway. if yes to the latter; maybe all ready attack to go off at the same time to hit it will incapacitated (for the crit dmg^^)))

I don't think we can kill this thing with one round of attacks, even if they're all crits (which I think is the rule for a sleeping foe), so I'd suggest we leave it and move on.
The Troll's moss has healed it a bit since it was put to sleep. It is back at full health. Assuming you leave it, the only two paths you haven't explored is the hallway to the east of the Rotunda, and the Bronze door to the south. You've ascertained that a few footsteps have headed towards the hallway, while the south door is rarely used.
You open the door to find a shrine, and more murals painted on the wall depicting the same person as last time. In the middle of the room is an offering bowl, stained dark. No other exits, once again.
The bowl is caked in blood, but it isn't recent. The blood is from long ago, but so much was poured into this bowl that it permanently stained the porcelain.
"I guess only one more way to go to" Erix says before heading in that direction.

Will Mark spill his blood in the bowl? As he glances at the murals in this room, it seems that these ones feature two other figures quite heavily along with the one from the entrance chamber.

Mark will quickly draw the image in his notebook, then he will move around to see if there are any secret pathways.

Elero is able to find nothing else of interest in this room, but the Troll doesn't wake up either.

(that might be a good idea, does it look like it healed from my magic crossbow.)

"Maybe the rarely used door is safer?" Elero whispers.
Mark will nod in agreement.

Mark will walk up and examine the bowl and the dark substance.

"Should we try to active this think with more blood?" Mark says only half kidding.
Will Mark spill his blood in the bowl? As he glances at the murals in this room, it seems that these ones feature two other figures quite heavily along with the one from the entrance chamber.
Elero would also like to look around for any mechanisms around the bowl, or any hidden doors in this room.
