>Explore the east wing.
>You decide to continue eastward, making you way past the tile and toward the far side of the complex, Maribel following along with you. As you leave the recess behind, you note there is more debris on the floor, and fewer columns are standing. This one, you quietly confess, may be your fault. Much of the debris doesn't seem to have been here as long, at least. Soon after leaving the recess with the tile, you encounter more stairs, as the entire floor raises up another yard. Climbing it, you proceed onward, soon finding another such floor-length stairway, and then another shortly after. You note the walls are narrowing as well, becoming more obvious with fewer columns to obscure them.
>Then the pillars come to an end, and you can see the eastern edge of the temple ahead, opening in to a kind of of balcony, minus the usual railings, that seems to loom a good ten feet above the ground. Past it, you can see the far edge of the island. The balcony itself is not terribly interesting on the whole, but there is a curious circular indentation in the floor at the edge of it, about a foot and a half across. As you come closer to the edge of the balcony, you note there is no ground past it, just outside the edge of the temple. Rather, there is a sizable chasm, perhaps fifteen feet wide and running a few dozen feet in either direction, offering a view of the multicolored sky below.
