<p>Yes, it is so sweet to have exited this dank dungeon, and feel the sun on your face, and the heat.

After defeating the dangerous creature within the ruins, and finishing exploring at your own pace, you have returned to the surface. </p>
<p>The singing guard talks with you, and you explain what happened.
<br />
She will take care of this end of things, and is relieved to hear that the you have dealt with this unexpected danger,</p>
<p>Finally, having trekked safely back across the desert, you arrive back to talk with Venture-Captain Norden Balentiir, who sets out a big dinner for you.</p>
<p>Happy to hear your report, Balentiir is deeply concerned, particularly because Nefaram has been feigning membership in the Pathfinder Society.
<br />
He reassures you - if you were worried that is, some people might not care but simply be eating! - that he will work with government officials to root out the source of the problem.</p>
<p><b>"For now, though, you have earned a rest in the gardens of the Sandswept Halls!"</b>, he says, as he pulls out a tray of colored bottles of liquor... that look strangely like the powder you saw in the tomb!</p>The sun!

<p>Then you go the North, first seeing two rooms to the West - bottom of the map.
<br />
One is a long empty one, with two statues like the one you just saw, that represent Set, the Osiriani god of darkness, deserts, and murder.</p>
<p>The other room is a traditional burial chamber, with some old furniture and weapons laid out, all broken and old.</p>
<p>Then, due North, is a room with three empty vats, filled with colored powder.
<br />
There are many tools and tables there, and you see this was an embalming room.</p>
<p>The colorful pits in this room are each 5 feet deep. They were once filled with embalming fluids, but the liquid within has evaporated over the centuries, leaving this powdery residue.</p>
<p>Just above that, to the East - the top of the map - is a chamber with carvings in the floor that glorify some person - the one who made this crypt? -, showing him leading an army of undead against a city, that you recognize as Sothis, from almost 1,000 years in the past.
<br />
Behind the main hero, several other figures lead their own lesser armies of undead. However, their faces have been chiseled out, with text written across their bodies. Written in Osiriani, the text calls the figures “ungrateful leeches” and “treacherous scum” and “unworthy of unlife.”
<br />
Nice!</p>
<p>Finally, you find an inner chamber, opposite the room with the vats.
<br />
This is where the Clerk Who Pretended to be a Pathfinder had set his camp up: cot, food, clothes, coal...
<br />
Most of the objects in this room are mundane pieces of gear, but Nefaram had a satchel filled with various objects that he has obviously started looting from this complex, and some notes about what he is doing, hoping to become rich.</p>
<p>These finds include an ominous curved dagger with a small onyx gem in its hilt and a mirror decorated with a serpent motif.</p>
<p>In total, the contents of Nefaram’s satchel are worth 3 gp.</p>You explore the corridors to the South, and see that they snake to a place that goes down deeper into the crypts... but the stairs collapsed, and, though there are tools there, no one has started pulling out the tons of rock -- yet.
