Room 10

 


10- Shower and Ambulatory


This small chamber is slick with moisture, and is tiled in greens and blues. It has a large drain the north, about 2/3 through the room, and the floor tilts towards it – it is for draining the water from the very large shower head in the ceiling. There are two knobs on the northern wall, one dull red and one dull blue – they control hot and cold water respectively. There is as small table in one of the corners, it is ceramic and tiled in greens – it has a couple bars of soap on it. There are small hooks on the eastern wall, for towels, but only one remains – to the western wall are niches, for more soap or otherwise.

If one looks very closely, or uses Architecture, they may notice that the tiles form an ambulatory in the floor of the shower room.


The water works, though both are cold at the moment.

The hallways from 98 and 99 are also tiled, in blue and white – with a mazelike pattern, an ambulatory.

This is a form of meditation, and is used as a path to walk on and pray or meditate.

The room is roughly 1X13 feet, each hallways/passage in and out is around 5 feet wide.
