Sounds like on the other side it bends out of sight or something, so we don't have more details, right? Dax and Gegren could both far step across and use rope to get others over by tying one end around altar and if nothing else on the other side, the two of us can anchor? What do others think?

Crossing the chasm seems vaguely possible, but she’s is a little leery of the inability to see the other side [OOC: if it’s just an illumination thing, then no big deal] If Gegren floats a light to the other side, Nia will see if she can see any details about the other side that could be useful to securing a rope or other way across.

Gegren will activate and levitate a torch down into the chasm to illuminate it, to the distance limits of his Hedge Magic ability or to something interesting or a floor, whichever comes first.
[Also re: the rock tests] The rift is roughly 100' deep, based on the various tests you all do to test its depths. The bottom seems narrow, with the rocks bouncing off the rock walls as they drop, ending with them clattering to the floor. It seems dry down there, again between the rock and torch tests. Judging by the fact that you see both sides of the rift's walls meet at a point at the bottom, and aided by the torch light, it might be about 30' to the other side of the chasm. [I'll assume based on this, Gegren or someone does another magic light trick or similar to test that...] It seems the worked chamber continues on the other side.

Nia would also take a look at the altar and see if there is anything about it that is familiar. Really old might mean elven, or perhaps on of the many faiths whose pilgrims passed through Oron-yána.
There's nothing of particular to note about the altar itself, and it doesn't seem to be ancient or worn down, where any markings might be obscured or lost to time. Perhaps it wasn't used for anything special, or perhaps it was adorned with cloth or similar for whatever purpose it was used for. -- bss (Brian S.
