    <description>Yawning holes gape in the walls above piles of sandstone blocks and other debris.  Three piles of bones lie in a rough circle around a strange diagram on the floor.  Closer examination of the pattern is not possible, as no mortal eye can fully grasp the details, but one corner trails away in a line of chalk that implies that the working was never completed properly.</description>
