So, a few days ago, another player showed me how to brake out of the Black Citadel, and then showed me this weird room.. If you go north west, you find this structure that looks like some sort of tree from below. However, after logging out and back in you appear on this hill that has this huge crack in it.. (You should have a character with a fall perk of some kind to survive).
After dropping down, that tree like thing turned out to be some statue of a snake like being with no eyes (that I can tell) and a coffin or non-intractable chest sitting in front of it. Birds and black ghosts swirl overhead and a tunnel leads to an open gap in the brick that is blocked off by an invisible wall.
With some finagling, me and a few others got inside the chamber on the other side of the wall.. It’s so neat, I was wondering if anyone else knew about this. Since I saw nothing like it, I wanted to share.

If people want, I can post pictures about how to brake out of the Citadel too.

Its an area related to Halloween. Even though it wasn’t present this year, last year and the year before that, players had a short story instance related to battling the Bloody Prince. Which is what that chamber is for.

Interesting that its actually persistent in the game world.

Huh, I didn’t realize you could still get in there. The Bloody Prince is sealed in that coffin, and, as Electro says, several Halloween story instances took place in that area.

I guess it’s not too surprising that it’s still there. I know there is a bug related to the Living Story where if your next story is in the Silverwastes it will direct you to take the NPC activated portal that used to lead to that chamber instead of directing you to a portal that works.

Be careful what you ask for
