S5 E29: The Back Door

With Tindal gone, Faerlin begins to search for the hidden door within the stone column. Rou and Eight help in the search while Trix is forced to rest and work on bandaging their wounds. Realizing they could make this easier, Eight summons a little dust devil construct to help search and they name it “Back Door Friend”. Meanwhile, Rou climbs up the column to see if there is anything at the top. When he arrives, he finds an abandoned bird nest and takes a moment to admire the view before heading back down.

Back Door Friend finds a hidden crevice and slips into it, removing the blockage to reveal a key. Realizing they can finally help, Trix slowly makes their way over and is able to pick the lock. The column shakes and a door slides sideways to reveal a passageway down. The group makes their way down, abandoning the busted cart, and eventually encounters a series of murals. It doesn’t take them long to figure out the secret to opening them, and two murals pop open to reveal a larger, still dark, passageway. Feeling confident, they continue forward. Suddenly, Rou finds himself alone as the rest of the group - including Bessie and Jimothy - fall through the floor and disappear from sight.
