Part 10: Requisite Musical Episode

Okay, that's enough of a victory dance for now. It's time to be obnoxious on a keyboard.

If you play back the melody that the Siren song placard sang...

The Rhodes Colossus face pops out to stare at you.

In actuality, it pops open a door leading to an ominous tunnel.

...I'm not sure this is less worrying.

Wikipedia suggests he did actually believe this. Though it also points out that he wasn't sure whether it was inhabited or not, and he came up with the theory to explain odd compass behaviors. And, you know, it was 1692. So I'm cutting him some slack here.

Opening the door provides passage into a massive Egyptian theater. Let's take a look around this place.

Normal enough room.

Nothing back here...

I guess we'll lea

(Yes, it just randomly does that sometimes.)

Another pile of metal that has decided not to eat us at this time. (Some people think the occasional shadow is meant to be the metal ixupi wandering around.)
