Yaotl took the lead and marched toward
the left adjoining room. Peering inside, he could see movement, but
nothing moved towards him.

Inside, he saw rows of stone tables, with bodies laid out and
skeletal workers pouring sand into their mouths. When the corpses
were full, the mouth was sewn shut. Yaotl wasted little time, he
rushed in and smashed the skeletal workers.
Ren walked up to one of the skeletal

had it's eyes and mouth sewn shut, but a trickle of sand leaked from
the corner of its mouth. Rata ran back the way he came.
