How It Begins

You are a moderately-successful cult investigator. You get a call from Lt. Benson of the local police department about a cult mass suicide in a temple in your own town. The police have already removed the bodies and what evidence they could find, but the cult leader, Simon Zigh, has disappeared with the cult's funds. Also there's stuff in the temple that the police don't understand. The police would like you to look the place over and report back to them.

You begin your investigation in the temple's entry way, where there's a small statue and marble archways leading north, east, and west.
