The black pool shrinks to a slick ring behind Walksfar Seesmuch, and the staircase below breathes up cold stone air. Ahead, the Shimmering Figure descends without fear, her silver glow waking heartbeat glyphs one by one.
The Gray-Mantled Stranger

Seralyth

Walksfar Seesmuch
The glyphs answer the hidden road.
The Shimmering Figure pauses on the stair and looks up, silver light cutting a narrow path through the dark. The pulse in the rock matches the beat in the chamber, steady, ancient, and waiting.
The Shimmering Figure
Descend, and the legacy beneath Baulder's Gate can be claimed. Linger, and the Inquisitor will hunt only shadows while the road closes.
Seralyth lowers her blade a fraction, ready to follow. The Stranger keeps her grip tight on steel. Below them, the first step of the hidden road glows like a vow.
Descend the hidden road
