    Can I get some feedback on what you know about the Magically Held Secret Doors that are south of the Earth Temples alter and on several other floors as well.

    Thank You.

    Ok this is totally off the top of my head and I am not home to check the T1-4 module to confirm this, but I believe these are the doors that would connect to the center main staircase in the center of the main temple above. These were the doors that were magically sealed my the forces of good at the fall of the temple after emirdy meadows just like the main doors to the temple as they show at the end of the opening video.
    So they cannot be opened, thus why you have to use the side stairs and secret stairs to get to the temple floors.
    Could be off on this since its been awhile since I have perused the original module, but that just lingers back there in my skull somewhere.

    Ahhh...it's the story line part & such.

    I was just curious because I wasn't sure if I was missing something about those doors. On the mini map you can see a passage designed behind some of them abit and it could have been extra content I might have been missing.

    Kk...makes sense I guess.

    Ty, shapecharge.

    Here's something odd from my most recent playthrough (v 7.4.1): I went on an Earth Temple killing spree. Romag disappeared from his room after a sleepover at Wonnilon's, and my rangers have tracked him to the room behind the magically held door just south of the Earth Temple altar. It appears Romag has built himself a Panic Room a la Jodie Foster.

    Funny ... ;) Once in a while the game makes errors with coordinates, usually seen in goofy waypoints or standpoints. I suspect if you change maps he may be back where he's supposed to be.
