The opening into the dome is 130 wide is 30 tall. The ziggurat is 380ft wide 500ft long, wall around temple is 12.5 ft tall, top of the ziggurat is ~50ft. There is a glazed brick mosaic depicting a two headed winged serpent circling the earth. In the center there are two bronze doors flanked by two large statues.
As we approach, four kobolds appear and yap at us in common. Uthman intervens and prevents a fight starting out. He convinces them that he serves their masters and interrogates them. They explain that they are ruled by a King, Urza. They are there to guard what is inside. There are other races which come into the dome, and they stay out of their way when they return. The have heard of a higher leader, "the lady below", but never seen her. Questions exhausted, Uthman turns on them and a battle ensues. Other than a lucky strike against Titania, the kobolds are quickly dispatched. Uthman and Aurelia conceal the bodies. We loot
