4. Unlocked Skull
We managed to lockpick the ornate skull - a secret passageway was revealed to us.
5. Found Puzzle
To open the locked door you need to step on or put something on the five plates. You can use the vases. If you have Spirit Vision then you can cast it to see the correct pattern.
We found a strange puzzle of glyphes and pressures plates. What could possibly need such elaborate protection...?

There are 16 plates, press plates marked with X.
