Examine: An ancient - slightly higher wall with some strange markings on it

Ancient Wall is a piece of scenery in the Legends caverns. It is first time encountered during the Legend's Quest when a player needs to use "SMELL" runes on it, meaning Soul-Rune, Mind-Rune, Earth-Rune and two Law-Runes.

Players only need to use the runes on the wall once.
