10.	->push button to remove wall
11.	->encounter Cosmo-Bot
12.	Tomb of the Astral Dominae (step in all goldned circles, gate auto open) The gate to the fabled tomb open, you almost hesitate to enter.
13.	Taking a glance across the room, you are disappointed to find the entire chamber looking quite empty. Perhaps you are too late and someone beaten you to the prize.
14.	On the floor a golden circle surrounds the words: *ASTRAL DOMINAE*. ->search Searching carefully along the floor, you detect a faint hairline crack which traces the outline of a trap door. But how to open it, that is the question. ->use [VITALIA'S DEVICE] Moving to the center of the chamber, you take the blinking device which the electric warrior-girl gave to you and push the button. You wait. A luminous glow of colorful light bathes the room, and within it a shimmering figure begins to materialize. You found it! Oh! I guess you didn't. Where is the As-Tral-Da-Me-Nah?!? What are we supposed to do now? The Dark Savant mentioned something about needing special keys. Do you know what he was talking about? (answer yes) Have you tried using them? (answer yes) Maybe I should try, what do you say? (answer yes) You hand the mysterious blue locket and the odd ring from Phoonzang's spaceship to Vi Domina. Examining the sapphire locket, she cups it into the palms of her hands. Suddenly, it starts to glow! Up from the center of the floor arises a dark globe seated upon a magnificent pedestal. Hey! It worked!! But it looks kind of lifeless to me. If this is some sort of super-dome, I think it's lost it's fizz. And while she is looking it over, a gossamer light appears behind her in the room.
	Did you think you could fool me?!! I had you injected with a homing device after your last escapade, my dear Vitalia! And something extra along with it!! Before anyone can react, the Dark Savant presses a button upon his forearm and Vi Domina freezes, her eye turning white in the back of her head, her body shaking as if being subjected to an invisible current of paralyzing pain. And now my friends, since you have been good enough to lead me to the legendary tomb of the Astral Dominae, I will deal with you quickly and most mercifully!! But first, the globe!! Flinging himself upon the dark crystal ball, he grasps and tears at it, but it does not budge or move. What's this! What have you done?! It won't come off!!! Arrrrgggghhhh!!! Now is the time for all to die!! ->encounter Dk.Savant (win) The epic battle over, you stare as his remains shimmer away. You wonder what secrets he held, and regret the loss of such potential booty as his corpse might have contained. Not to mention his knowledge of the Astral Dominae. Too late for remorse now, however, and you turn your attention back to Vi, who seems to have been released from the grip of searing pain that had crippled her. Uunngowwahh! Remind me never to go through that again!! I think you killed him. Too bad. If not for his insane obsession with the Astro-Ball, I think perhaps he might not have been such a sister of bad news. Farewell, o mysterious traveler, ye Dark Savant!! Now what do we do with the Globe? Perhaps the ring somehow. She approaches the black orb and places the ring upon her finger. Behold, The Astral Dominae!
	Very pretty, but what's it for? It looks like a fancy ornament to me. Everyone crowds around and peers into the glittering orb. Swirling colors, bright luminescent images, dancing around inside the astral globe. All apparently meaningless. Then suddenly, Vi becomes quiet and still, as if something strange was passing through her. As if in a deep trance, she does something most unusual. Squatting before the Astral Globe, she pulls up the patch covering her eye. And inside the deep socket of her head, you gaze upon an iridescent pupil-less eye, an undulating veinous orb, hideous upon her otherwise beautiful countenance. Wow! She seems to be lost, staring into the holographic crystal ball. This is incredible. It's a blueprint. No, it's... It's a formula, a code. For the creation of Life! Wait. It's also a map. Of Energy. And Matter. Of the nexus between Energy and Matter! But, but... Then, that is what Life is. The nexus, the flux, the bridge between Matter and Energy. That is the secret of Life! By the gods!!! With the power of this Globe, you could create a living being of unlimited energy! A being with the power of the stars! A Superman!! A God!!! No wonder the Dark Savant wanted to get his hands on this. Ut! What's this. It's a chart of a star-system. Hey! I recognize this system. But there isn't a... Oh! Very clever! This must be where it all started! C'mon, we've got to get moving!! Then breaking away, she removes the ring and inserts it into a small niche at the base of the globe. Springing the Astral Dominae free from its perch, she hands the darkening crystal ball back to you. ->get [*ASTRAL* *DOMINAE*] Keep this safe until we can get away from here. Waaay out of here!! Though you understand only bits and pieces of what the hysterical girl was trying to tell you as she ooo'd and ahh'd at the sights within the starry sphere, you understood well enough what it would mean for someone with the power to create super monsters and super men, and worse, super gods. Who among you could have guessed that on this day would the awesome power of the heavens fall into your hands. But before you have time to ponder the blasphemous, unholy, incredible and cosmic significances of everything that has unfolded, the lively spacegirl with whom your destiny seems inextricably interwined continues.
	We need a ship!! Did you find a spacecraft? (answer yes) Xama-Tama! There are a few things I need to pick up from the Dedaelis, the Black Ship, before we leave. With the Dark Savant gone, I might be able to sneak aboard without arousing too much suspicion. I would like bring you with me, but the transponder on my glove isn't powerful enough to beam us all together. And the Savant Androids are accustomed to seeing me on the ship, but you'd be a dead giveaway. Get to the spaceship as soon as possible. Signal me once you're there, and I'll beam down to join you. Better be prepared to leave in a hurry! Good luck! And don't lose the Globe!! Still unaccustomed to the magic which she seems to wield, you stand in awe and wonder as she shimmers away, knowing that she goes to face a swarm of mad-buzzing Savant Kui-Sa-Ka all alone. For now, you have to deal with the problem of leaving the Tomb with the Astral Dominae. Too bad you don't have one of those 'Tam-Pondies' in your glove. ->go to the spaceship in City of Sky for ending
