You bend down and examine the inscription and read:
‘A life that’s spent at odds with death,
Can dull the mind—the broadsword’s edge.
But even-tempered swords and heads,
Fall easy where the foolish tread.’
While crouching, you catch sight of the ceiling. A dense mass of swords are suspended, points downward, in the air above your head. You feel sure that there is a connection between these swords and those inscribed in the flagstones.
If you wish to step on the flagstone directly ahead of you that bears two swords, turn to 349.
If you wish to step on the flagstone to the left that bears one sword, turn to 318.
If you decide to step on the flagstone ahead and slightly to the right that bears one sword, turn to 234.
