27. The Void Space. The end of the corridor here leads to nothing, quite literally. The doorway opens up into what appears to be outer space, with stars visible in all directions. The only object of significance is a massive gray stone sphere, 100 feet in diameter, some 60 feet directly away from the doorway. Anyone sticking an arm or an object through the doorway finds that the climate is hospitable to humanoid life, with air, and that gravity pulls directly down to the sphere (at about half the gravity of normal). The PCs can lower themselves down to the sphere by rope, and when the first two have arrived, the guardian of the sphere makes itself known. It hides on the far side of the sphere, a massive, semi-sentient Gray Ooze that is Large in size and has 100 hp. Also hidden on the other side of the sphere is another portal, 20 feet elevated from the sphere surface, that leads to the Chamber of the Bell. The Ooze moves quite slowly, so enterprising PCs can divide their efforts and have part of the party lead it away from the second portal while the other part figures out a way up.
