There is one door, ancient, heavy, forged from steel. It bore a strange symbol resembling a two-headed eagle (http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs25/i/2008/268/d/f/Imperial_Aquila_II_by_WackyCamper.jpg).

On the other side of the door, one will find themselves in an dark, cold stone room with an almost Gothic style architecture, lit only by wrought-iron braziers affixed to the walls. The room smells of incense, coming from the censers placed around the room. On the far wall, the twin-headed eagle symbol appears again, this time forged from gold.

Before the symbol kneels a mountain of a man, clad in a tattered gray robe and wearing a blindfold. He was muttering quietly in some form of pseudo-Latin as he drew strange glyphs and symbols on the floor before the eagle symbol with yellow chalk.

Even though he is in the most lit part of the room, it is difficult to look directly at him, almost as if every time you attempt to look at some distinct detail about him, your eye is driven to look elsewhere.

The effect, over all, is quite unsettling.
