2. To the south, there's a table with various objects on it: a [[Burnished Necklace]], [[Dark Mind]] (a brain in a jar), the [[Illithid Manuscript]], which seems to tell a story about "a brain, a githyanki warrior, and centuries of darkness", and a locked [[Elaborate Reliquary]]. You might be able to pick the lock of the reliquary, otherwise you can look for the key (see below). It contains gold and an [[Onyx]].

3. Going back towards the entrance, you can look at the sigils on the control panel. Each will trigger an [[Arcana]] Check to allow you to read it. The left one says "Unleash," the middle one "Aggression," and the right one "Annihilate". The Unleash button apparently makes psionic energy radiate from the two knocked out cultists, but it's unclear what use this has (It does not allow you to talk to them. This might be just unimplemented yet). The Aggression button will make them become hostile against you. Annihilate will kill them. Making them attack you and then defeating them gives you 1 XP each if you're into that. Looting them can also be done by just pressing Annihilate.

You might notice that an intellect devourer occasionally walks through this room. The intellect devourer won't drop any loot if it is killed. If you choose to attack this intellect devourer for the extra XP, note that [[Us]] will attack you as will, unless you successfully mutilated it and gave it the [[Lobotomised]] condition.
