-This whole place... looks ominous, - said Ratislav. -Just like this sarcophagus. Darkness... evil... I don't think anything good or bright is hidden there.
Upon seeing these symbols, Paroxys, Aurelius, and Varus fell into a trance, and they all experienced the same dream.
The setting was in the same cave, near the same sarcophagus. It was closed, just as it is now, but the magical seals were not yet on it. Two tall figures stood above it. One was about 190 cm tall, with dark hair, blue eyes, and a strong build. The second was even taller, about 220-230 cm. However, his appearance could not be seen because of the strange light.
- Are you sure? - asked the taller one. - It would be much more reliable...
- No, I'm not sure. But I can't do anything else. I beg you, [...]
- As you wish, my friend. - The tall one agreed and began to enchant the sarcophagus with sealing magic. - I hope neither of us will regret this decision.

- I think this sarcophagus shouldn't be opened; it looks very ominous.
- This whole place... looks ominous. - said Ratislav. - As does this sarcophagus. Darkness... evil... I don't think there's anything good or bright hidden there.
Roger scratched his head puzzledly. - This thing definitely looks very peculiar, but...
- But it looks much more interesting than a "treasure room." - Lazur finished for him. - I definitely expected to find something more curious than a pile of glittering stones and coins.
-I can try to open this sarcophagus, - Ratislav said thoughtfully. -But... I don't think it's a good idea. It wasn't sealed for no reason, and in such a remote place, so far from civilization. However, maybe it's all just nonsense...
The barricades turned out quite well; in many places, one could take cover from spears, although Agnet was already starting to doubt that it would be useful. But her teachers always emphasized that one could never be too cautious in war.
The girl sat down to rest, and unpleasant thoughts began to creep into her mind, thoughts that hadn't bothered her during work, but now was the perfect time for them. Mostly, she was worried that she would return home sick and wounded, without a hand, and worst of all, that all these misfortunes would not be related to the battle. In essence, all her problems were connected to utter nonsense, which didn't make her feel any better about them; at least, that's what she thought. "Well, maybe at home, with the help of my father's connections, they can come up with something for my hand," she reassured herself.
Agnet sat for a while and decided it was time to check on the people below. Descending into the cave, she looked at the sarcophagus.
"Something interesting, huh? Who's lying in there?"
Added 14 minutes later -Alright, maybe I am exaggerating the danger a bit. - With these words, Ratislav cast the Dispel spell and opened the sarcophagus.
-- Do you want to open the sarcophagus? Why? We should respect the dead, -- said Lang, looking at the zombie Kelenor and sighed. -- If we need this sarcophagus, we could send it whole to the organization, I think. Otherwise... Well, our archaeologist should know better, but it seems to me that the corpse inside will simply crumble if we open it. How long has it been lying here?
