[Tending the Fold, Nave] Whether by optical illusion or by some magical means, the unexpectedly high walls vault upward with columns of darkly stained maplewood that crisscross in elaborate patterns and showcase the surprisingly lofty and blindingly white ceilings. Arching stained glass windows on either side appear to let in muted light of many colors. A strip of dark red carpet runs down the center of several wooden pews, leading toward the cathedral's transept and wings. Obvious exits: north, out. >n [Tending the Fold, Crossing] The ceiling here seems to be higher than the exterior would indicate or allow and is comprised of green-tinged, stained-glass panels arranged in offset rows. A strategically but subtly lit, moderately sized altar stands in the middle of the crossing's aisle, flanked by rows of simple oak pews on the left and right. Obvious exits: north, east, south, west. >look on altar On the small altar you see some wolf instructions, some scorpion instructions, some lion instructions, some ram instructions, some cobra instructions, some ox instructions, some wild boar instructions, some panther instructions, some unicorn instructions, some gilded raven instructions and some gilded wren instructions.
