After resting within the catacombs without reprise by the Seer, the party elects to move forwards. After opening the rest of the rooms, including storage for oil and a golem workshop, they find an entrance hall that was clearly the site of battle. More golems lie strewn around, as well as one imprisoned individual.

Shortly after, they reach the surface, and begin battle with a goblin ambush whilst the Seer mocks them.
