You approach the young woman, who nods and allows you entrance to the maze. Once inside, you hear a distinctive *click* and turn to see that the portal which you came through has vanished!

You realize as you look about that the whole area is lit by a confusing display of pure white lights, the walls plated with mirrors. You study the entrances that shoot off in all directions, make some mental calculations, and head off into the labyrinth.

Navigating carefully, you take a right...a right...a left...a left...a left...a left...a left...a right...a left...a right...a left...a right...a right...a left....

[Chedik Bridge, Engineer's Tower]
This cluttered chamber at the bottom of the tower looks more like a classroom than a base of operations for maintenance of a massive stone structure. There are several benches facing a desk behind which a large dusty slate is bolted to the wall. A prominent sign is posted to one side of the slate.

A prominent sign reads: To Build Great Things Requires Not Merely Brawn But Also Intellect.

A bespectacled Dwarf of middling years strides in and says, "All right then, you must understand that building a bridge requires more than simply piling up big stones. You must pay careful attention to the stresses involved, like so..." Grabbing a piece of chalk, he proceeds to cover the slate in intricate diagrams and equations, occasionally stopping to stress certain details. He continues, pausing at points to pose questions to see whether you are following. Finally, the lecture draws to a close. You consider what you've learned, and although you're not at all sure that you could engineer a major bridge, you have indeed gained some insights.
