As they walked into the next room, which happened to be the room with the pits of dirt and bones, it suddenly started to smell like rotting bodies. As they walked down the ramp into the lower halls they noticed that all of the doors were open a there was blood coming from each one. "Be on your guard, I think it's corprus," said Searph in an almost-whisper. As they walked up to the first room they saw that there was nothing in there but a pool of blood, a bed with bloody sheets, and a room that looks like a sandstorm blew through it. So they walked up the next room and saw the same thing, and the same in the next.
What they saw as that there was that all of the trails of blood seemed to lead up to one door, the only closed door. They approached the door slowly, and Kela's hand reached for it. He jiggled the handle and said "It's locked. Got a spell?" Seraph raised his sword to the key hole and the tip of the sword started to melt then take the shape of a key. Seraph placed the key that had melted off of the sword in the key hole, turned it, and then the door just swung open.
They found themselves staring into a storage closet. There was nothing in it but a couple of crates, mop, bucket, and a small pool of blood. "Well, if there's a secret, I'll figure it out," said Seraph in an unusually cheery voice. He lifted his right hand (the one without the sword in it) to the two crates that were stacked on top of each other and a blue ball of light shot out of his hand at the crates. As the ball of light hit the crates they disappeared and in their place was a trap door.
"I think it will take us to the canal ways," said Seraph as the group was figuring out if they should go or not. "What if it doesn't? What if it takes us straight into oblivion!" asked Kela waving his hands in the air. "You have too many 'what ifs' Kela. Lets just go," said Sango. Just then there was a thump above them. "Some one else is in here."
They heard the footsteps trace across the floor by the ramp that led to the hallway they were in, but then stopped. "Whatever it is, it's big," whispered Seraph. "Ogrim?" asked Creeper. "No. Not that big," whispered Omni, who was, like Kela, sniffing the air. "It sounds about the right size for a bonewalker," whispered Seraph watching the ramp. "Hey, where's Holly?" asked Sango. They looked over at the trap door and it was open. "Fuck!" yelled Seraph. "Shhhh!" whispered all the other in unison. Just then the ramp started to creak and all but one lamp in the hall blew out. "I say we get out of here now," whispered Kela. "Yea, I think he's right," said Seraph as he snuck over to the trap door.
He blinked then his eyes were as green as the glass on his armor and as bright as the one lamp in the hall, but not emitting any light. "It's a slide. It has to go to the canal works. I'm going. Holly's down there." And with that he jumped in. As Kela gave Sango a look of 'come on!' he jumped in after Seraph, only to be followed by Sango, Omni, and Creeper, making sure to close the door behind them.
Creeper landed next right behind the others in the canal works. Across the water from them was a door that seemed to be emitting some sort of magical force field. "There you guys are! Took you guys long enough," said Holly as she came walking out from behind a corner holding a dwemer shield and a silver longsword. "Where'd you get those Holly?" asked Seraph. "Oh, they were on a couple of dead bodys in this tunnel. I figured I'd need something to protect myself better and I heard about these bodys when I was younger," she said while placing the shield up against a wall, sitting down and leaning against the shield. "How old are these bodys?" asked Seraph sounding intrigued. "They're as old as the legends of Neravine Indoril," replied Kela. "But the story is that they are still like freshly killed body's because of a piece of jewelry one of them wore that couldn't be removed until the keeper came along and got it," said Kela as if it were common knowledge. "Is it okay if I go check out these bodys?" asked Kela. "Go ahead," replied Sango, with Kela's nod of approval.
As he walked through the tunnel he saw two bodies, and they didn't look like they've been dead for more than a day. He searched one of the bodies and didn't find anything. As he searched the second one the only piece of jewelry he found was around the neck. He pulled it off of the neck and wiped off the dirt with a rag that seemed to appear out of no where. After he finished wiping it he looked at it and saw that there was the same symbol on the amulet as there was on his armor and sword. He put it on and suddenly he felt a burst of magicka surge trough his body.
He slowly rose up into the air and a green fire swallowed his body. He fell to the ground with the logo on his armor glowing. As his head hit the ground his helmet came off enough to reveal the symbol glowing on his forehead.
