Upon inspection, the bald Tenvillah look-alike died between one to two months' ago. The other one is skeletal and has been down here for a long time. By the looks of him, he may have been part of the group who died in the mushroom chamber and/or those who fell to their impaled deaths in the room with the illusion bridge.
