Solstice Narthex

Solstice Narthex is a quiet walk through a sunlit marble hall. A lantern rests on a grid of pale tiles. Columns stand in some of the tiles, and a few tiles hold a violet gem. One tile is a gold step.

The lantern glides in a straight line until a column or the edge of the hall stops it. Any gem it passes is gathered. The hall is complete when every gem has been gathered and the lantern stops on the gold step. The next hall arranges the columns differently. After the last hall, the walk begins again.

The play is gliding a lantern across marble tiles to gather gems and reach a gold step. It is not a wager and not a request for payment.
