Hidden truths

[Anastasia]

There is no keyhole.

[Nephrite]

Moore tries putting the key up to the door.

"If this doesn't work, let's just keep looking." Moore says. "It's clearly reacting to something, but I don't know what."

[Anastasia]

Nothing happens.

[Nephrite]

"Let's just keep going for now." Moore says. "Maybe it'll react when we get close to something."

[Anastasia]

Where are you going then?

[Nephrite]

Back up, then try #4.

[Anastasia]

Four is the same, except the walls are old and pitted there, notably weathered by time.

[Nephrite]

"...Interesting." Moore says. "What do you all want to do? Keep checking each of these?" He asks. "I think it may be better to go back and see if we can find somewhere to actually use this key."

[Anastasia]

"I think so," Sylvie agrees, "We can navel gaze at all of these, but I don't think we'll see anything that useful with all of them."

[Nephrite]

"This might lead us to more answers anyway." Moore says as he heads back up to the main stairwell - then attempts to go back the way they came, keeping an eye on the key to see if anything changes about it when they're on the move.

[Anastasia]

You mean back up to the beginning, right?

[Nephrite]

Yes, back towards the entrance, through the freezing room and the Balor room.

[Anastasia]

Your trip back to the entrance takes some time, but is otherwise uneventful.

[Nephrite]

"I kind of expected something to happen on the way." Moore says as they approach the golem.

"Well, time to test theory number two..." He says as he holds the key up and out to it.

[Anastasia]

Nothing happens that you can discern.
