All is not what it seems here.  The room is alive with colored light,
shooting in from the stained glass windows that line the wall.  The floor
mosaics that decorate this 'sanctuary' are not of the normal fashion.  They
are multiple panels which form a unified composition, a theme of which you
can not understand.  A small grate, roughly four feet in size, can be seen
on the floor in the corner of the room.  Standing above it is a elderly man,
the great Justinian, deep in thought.  As he turns to look at you he fumbles
a small glass of wine, it falls to the ground and shatters.  You think
nothing of it until you hear the sound of the spilled wine as it flows into
the grate, the sound is deep, very deep.  The central nave and forechoir can
be seen to your north.
