 As you move north towards the east-west junction you notice the floor in front of you marked by a rectangle of newly laid stone. It extends across the width of the passage and is remarkable only in that it is cleaner than the surrounding flagstones. Judging by the fresh chisel marks it is either a repair or, more probably, a trap only recently installed. Whatever it is you cannot avoid it.
(If this is the first time you have used this passage you will have to get over this suspicious stonework. If this is not the first time you have walked over this piece of floor you may have been lucky nothing unfortunate has happened to you).
With any hope of furthering your quest laying beyond this ominous piece of stone you must find some way of getting past without stepping on the slab. A quick survey of the passage shows no available ropeholds. Smooth walls and a high vaulted ceiling leave no options for attaching a rope and swinging over. This stonework you must jump, and the leap is at least 4 metres wide.
Throwing your equipment over the slab to the other side you retreat a short way down the passage and then, with all the strength you can muster, leap out over the stone.
