The party and the soldiers appointed to you proceed into the hallway. At the end lies a tall, stone door with an evil-looking gargoyle on it. Inscribed on the door, as translated by the Romans from Latin:
Under this portal which all pass
Thine life is forfeit, shalt not last
Whether be crime, injustice, or war
Thou shalt fade by the Minotaur
Thou art pleased to end thine life
But what is prime is yet more strife
Answer this query, ye soul of little fame
And Minos' Fury shalt begin its game
How shalt Minerva createth her Spider;
By what course did she punish a liar?
