Object
Grail Temple Jehovah Cobblestone Path
A word-based puzzle trap spanning a bottomless chasm in the Grail Temple, where cobblestones engraved with letters (I-E-H-O-V-A in Latin) form an invisible bridge visible only as painted stone. Requires precise execution (stepping only on the correct sequence spelling 'Jehovah') and scriptural knowledge to cross safely. Follows the Pendulum Blade trap in the temple's sequence and is solved under duress (Walter Donovan holding Henry Jones Sr. at gunpoint).
