Wall of the Sanctuary Foyer Hall

Ancient stone wall lines the long, sunlit hall in the Foyer of the Sanctuary. Indy wedges the whip handle deep into its surface to anchor a lifeline across the false floor pit, hidden under dust-covered cobwebs that collapse to reveal a dark bottomless drop. Sunlight pierces the space, sharpening shadows over the chasm as Indy swings over, passes the torch, and pulls Satipo across. Tension builds through each improvised step, the wall providing the sole fixed point amid unraveling traps.
