You force the baboon-like creature back into the cage, though it is not an easy task. You hastily slam and fasten the door. As you finish, you hear steps behind you. Sword raised to strike, you wheel about and see Salamdros. "The job is done," he says, "but Roderick is dead. What have you here?"

You tell him of your adventures in this room. "No doubt you met the Master," he says. The two of you search the room, even the pit. There is no sign of the evil man, though you find the last of the equipment the Master's creatures stole from you. You also find a small chest, which you open with care. The Master's plans for the attack on the valley rest inside, along with five gems (200 gp each). There is nothing else in the room.

You return to the other room, and find another 500 gp, then leave by the last exit. Go to page 309.
