As the primary place of worship for a population of six thousand, the House of Morenth is an enormous structure, perhaps five or six hundred feet across at the longest, but it's not just one big rectangular building. It looks like it's been added to many times over hundreds of years. Whether the building is bigger or smaller underground is impossible to tell. It is known that a library exists under.

After a long march, they passed through the two libraries, and were back in the long, dim tunnel that led to the Chamber of Eternity. There the guards slowed, waiting to be shown the secret way out.

The guards seemed doubtful, in what little expression could be read in their faces, but their silent orders were clear. Bit by bit, they carried out brooms, mops, barrels, pots, crates and other items until the corridor was as crowded with objects as with people. As they went deeper, the items that came out were older. One crate broke open, scattering wooden scroll tubes everywhere. These were cleaned up to make room for even more.

After half an hour of this, a priest arrived. “What are you doing?” he asked. “The Ritual Minister,” one of the guards answered. Unsatisfied, he stayed to watch, inspecting each of the invaders as if they were some interesting books or artifacts, and treating them as such, blind to their activities and deaf to their words.

It was another half hour before the passage was cleared enough to follow it to the end. Three other priests had come and gone to see what was happening, but the Ritual Minister himself remained absent.
