The party continues another 30-40' to the south (relative west) until the cloisters wraps around to the north or a hallway continues to the norther section of the monastery. Alahazra recommends heading north along the cloister to continue looking at the artwork regarding the monastery's devotionals. As before, the south cloister's entrance to the courtyard is choked with overgrown vegetation.

An open arch along the southern wall at the eastern end of the corridor leads off into darkness, while a series of archways lines the north wall, looking in on the monastery’s massively overgrown courtyard. The southern wall bears a bas-relief sculpture in the form of a triptych. In the first scene, a heroic-looking bearded figure takes leave of four similarly attired companions, who rise off into the heavens, leaving him to stand vigil over the large mountain in the background. The next scene depicts the bearded figure in battle with a flaming half-man/ half-snake creature wielding a spear. The fire spirit transfixes the bearded hero with the spear, seemingly striking a killing blow. In the final scene, the hero appears twice—once on the ground with a wound in his back and once standing over this form, looking down upon it sadly.

Comparison of the bas-relief with others in the sequence clearly shows that the bearded figure here is the central figure in all of the carvings, including those found in areas A1a and A1b, and that the entity’s name that if finally found in the artwork .... is Vardishal.
