The altar remains open beneath the cold sky, its inner pattern visible through the star-shaped hollow. Wind combs the fallen pillars and carries dust over the blue marks.
Rovan
These pillars were built before the quarry. The newer cuts begin here, where the stone was opened and fitted around an older foundation.
Teren
The survey signs were copied from this pattern, but the route beyond the altar was changed. Someone redirected the ascent after the original marks were set.
Rovan brushes lichen from a fallen pillar while Teren aligns a quarry groove with the star-shaped hollow. A thin blue filament appears between them, running north beneath the rock.
Rovan
There. The alteration is recent enough to retain a working trace. It does not lead toward the quarry. It leads to the northern heights.
Teren
And this cut repeats the seal from the chamber below. Ilyen Voss worked here after changing the route, then carried the pattern farther uphill.
The filament pulses once and resolves into faint footprints of blue light across the exposed stone, climbing toward a narrow ravine in the northern heights. The trace remains clear, waiting beyond the altar.
