There are two things in the Throggi Temple that I just can't figure out.
First, the one I'm assuming most everyone but me has figured out. What do you do with that huge statue of a face holding an orb in its mouth (in the North-West section) that zaps you whenever you try to grab it? No further explanation should be necessary, but I'm adding screenshots to show where it is.
Second, something less people may have noticed. In the South-West section, just above the stairs leading to the Feeding Grounds, there's a room of some kind that Afri's orb shows me, but there's no button at all near by to open up a secret door. Any insights on how to get in there? Screenshots included in attachment to show you where it is.
Thanks for the help :)

I cannot remember what I did with the large statue with the Orb, but have you tried to simply walk through the wall? There are several spots in the game where this can be done.

Yup, I've already tried walking through both, but to no avail.
The statue that shocks you if you touch it is actually used to recharge your wands. In order to do this simply take the wand out of your inventory and then click the wand on the orb. It will fully recharge the wand and can be used an unlimited number of times.
The secret room that you find when using the mapping orb is actually a secret room that is only acessable via a portal on Level 11. It is a sweet secret and worth getting.

You my friend are a gentlemen and a scholar. I have been playing this for 20 years and this is one of the few puzzles I could never figure out. I always thought it was one of the god orbs I needed to collect, in spite of having completed the game. Knowing that it recharges staves, instead of having to backtrack to recharge them is a HUGE help. Thank you very much.
