The archway is lined by symbols and writing that Wanda has no time to really take in as she rushes after her Shadow. Through the huge doorway is a wide spiral staircase and way up ahead she can spot the spider-construct. Heading up the steps it soon seems like there's no end to them, just spiraling further and further up until it feels like she's just walking in place while the staircase rotates around her...
Just when she might consider giving up she comes to a landing with another doorway. This one leads into what seems like a cathedral at first glance. All around the room are stained glass windows. Many of them are broken, colorful. glass shards just hanging in the air, yet still somehow producing images of scenes that slowly move. All of them are showing people, some panicked, others catatonic, a couple angry ones with faces full of hate while others yet seem to be pleading. Their eyes seem to move around the room by the drifting movement of the floating glass, turning towards Wanda when she enters but soon moving back towards the center of the room.
There sits a large stone altar, crude and almost pagan-seeming in it's roughness. Lieing on it is the unmoving form of a young girl, maybe 8 or 9 years old and splayed across her is Miriam, quietly sobbing as she's clutching the girl.
