=== Graverobber's Cave ===
This natural cavern is cluttered with over half a dozen mouldering caskets. If the centremost casket is interacted with, an [[Agile Guardian]] will burst out, surprising the party. It will quickly begin running off to the other caskets, breaking them open and spawning more undead such as [[Robust Guardian|Robust Guardians]]. A smart approach would be to break the caskets, clearing away the undead beforehand along with getting extra experience and loot. Besides the undead, the casket closest to the tunnel leading in holds the [[Scroll of Summon Quasit]] along with minor valuables.
This natural cavern is cluttered with over half a dozen mouldering caskets. The casket closest to the tunnel leading in holds the [[Scroll of Summon Quasit]] along with minor valuables. Using the scroll here in this room, or having the party's wizard learn and cast the spell here, will trigger additional conversations and opportunities.
 
Interacting with any of the other caskets, or proceeding too far into the room without interacting any caskets, will cause an [[Agile Guardian]] to burst out, [[Surprise (Game Mechanic)|surprising]] the party. It will quickly begin running off to the other caskets, breaking them open and spawning more undead such as [[Robust Guardian|Robust Guardians]].  
 
Alternatively, if the party breaks a casket rather than interacting with it, a guardian will still appear but will not achieve surprise over the party. The caskets can thus be cleared for loot and xp with less risk of the combat spiraling out of control.


At the south end of the cave is wooden platform where the magical ornate mirror is. Although its magic is dulled, it still blocks the way forward into the hidden lab. For details on bypassing the mirror, see [[Ornate Mirror]].
