Yellow squares – sculptures depicting simultaneously erotic and terrifying demonic women, as well as various monsters. Each of them has one hole of unknown purpose.
Dark turquoise – a flat disc made of gold, suspended from the ceiling by similar gold chains.
Dark blue – an obelisk with inscriptions.
Purple – pedestals with strange geometric symbols carved on them.
1 – a frightening-looking chair, equipped with handcuffs to fix the seated person's position. Next to it is a table with something resembling a helmet made partially of wood and partially of iron. Unpleasant, sharp objects intended for the ears, nostrils, and mouth were striking. The eye space was covered with black and rough fabric. A flexible tube extended from the "crown" of the helmet, leading somewhere into the wall.
2 – a wooden table with an image of a raven in the center; on one side stands a human skull, and on the other lies a crooked and rusty knife.
3 – a sculpture of a dragon with an open mouth.
4 – a statue of a person in expensive clothes and a crown on his head; in the floor beneath it is a place for placing palms.

-Wow! - Seliad could only exclaim, looking around. -So, there really was a barrier. Well done, everyone! We can take a look around, but be careful. - The warrior's gaze fell on the priest and the other mercenaries who were absent from the battle. -I'm glad you're all okay. What about him? - The Darkian approached Tristan. -Do we have a healer?

Father Cynius examined the unconscious mercenary, — His soul was separated from his body, — the priest concluded, after which he recited a short prayer.
— That’s strange! — Anemone exclaimed in surprise. — Just a moment ago, he was perfectly fine!

a hole with an unknown purpose

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm going to sleep, so if you want, you can chat among yourselves.

Sweet dreams!

Actually, I'm not leaving yet.

-Do we have a healer?

Apply some plantain, recite the Lord's Prayer, and get back in formation.
Aiyano frowned. The taste of the flamboyant politician, Reinis Reima, turned out to be exactly as vulgar and unpleasant as expected. However, this was a common trait of the culture of the semi-barbaric imperialists.
The priestess slowly walked around the hall, listening to the unpleasant sensations, and then turned her attention to the obelisk.

- Wow. That's really strange. Is there anything we can do to help him?

The yellow squares are sculptures depicting both erotic and grotesque demonic women, as well as various monsters. Each of them has one hole of unknown purpose.

- We can only pray, - the priest replied calmly, - everything depends on him. - Having finished his business with Tristan, Cinius returned to the main group and asked everyone present what had happened to them before they ended up in this room.
- Cinius convinced me that the best option in this situation is to do nothing, - Aria Bright joined the conversation. - So we just sat in a room with four doors.
- That's right, - the Father confirmed, - but at some point, the whole "world" began to collapse.

Miko felt uneasy. All she felt while being here was indescribable anger and boundless cruelty. Everything here was permeated with negative energy, even the walls, even the air. It seemed to her that the demon, this palace, had swallowed her whole. She realized that none of her efforts would be enough to cleanse this place of evil. All that remained was to destroy the heart, the source of this evil.
The following was written on the obelisk:

Aiyana hesitated – she wasn't sure if she should share her concerns with these unreliable people – but decided it was better to openly speak the truth.
- I have bad news for you, but not unexpected news, - she said, addressing the group. - The evil I felt in the street is nothing compared to what is inside. Ideally, this palace should be leveled to the ground by a battery of the most destructive spellcasters, but even that would not provide any guarantees.
She smiled at the official with lifeless lips.
- It seems that your masters sent you with us blindly, as expendable.
Well, I'm adding something about the "heart" so that the guys understand what's going on

Tsukiko saw the remaining members of the group and, smiling, covered her face with her hands. "This nightmare is over! You should thank us!" she allowed herself to boast a little. Then she looked around and her spirits sank again. "This place... what a disgrace." The words of the miko did not please her either.

Cynius returned to the main group and asked everyone present about what had happened to them before they found themselves in this room.

-This palace has clearly become a haven for great evil and was sealed off from this world many years ago, - replied Celiaad, answering the priest's question, and turned to the others. -Upon entering, we were transported to a new dimension - a kind of barrier that apparently prevented us from entering the palace. The doors to the rooms contained a trial, either through combat or intellect, and by passing it, it was possible to reach the guardian of the barrier. After defeating him, we destroyed that dimension and finally broke through to the palace. I don't know if the main seal or any protection is still in effect, but now that we're here, we should expect the worst.

- I have some bad, but not unexpected, news for you, - she said, addressing the group. - The evil I felt outside is nothing compared to what is inside. Ideally, this palace should be leveled to the ground by a battery of the most destructive spellcasters, but even that would not guarantee anything.

-It could have been guessed. - the warrior pondered. - So, even if we start exploring the castle, we will still have to fight the local forces, and the best way to complete the mission and stay alive is to try to destroy their "source"?

- It seems that your masters sent you here with us, blindly, as expendable.

-That's what I don't understand. If we all die here, no one will be able to pass on information about the danger of this place. And if no one cares about us, then... the authorities are planning to use the forces of the palace for their own purposes, no doubt.

-- What should we use? A torture... chair? I don't think the evil of this place can be used in any way; it's just... Of course, it's dangerous and disgusting, but not useful.
-- Well, Castor can write down what he sees in his notebook. But I don't want to read it.
