    Ghiso whistled, looking at the vials.
    "Some of these are magical- which probably means we shouldn't drink them until we know what they do. Or throw them too close. There is something else though" he pointed with his sword at the magic that was coming from the bartizan behind them "Something powerful is there. Can't say more, not with walls in the middle. Anyway, should be safe to pick up the potions since I don't think a spellcaster would trap the table where they work"

    Lana finds the wall to be very wall like in nature.

    Zarron finds no signs of oozes on this floor.

    Taara does not find anything of note.

    Through the door the room is much the same, a counter along the outer wall and some more dusty laboratory equipment and supplies.

    Without actually touching them with his own hands, Zarron tries to mentally take inventory as to how many potions and vials there are, and how many empty supplies are available for the taking.

    "Ooh! Ooh!" Lana said, and when Ghiso pointed out that the desk probably wasn't trapped, she searched the table with potions and stuff for components to start filling in a new component pouch. She did not avoid touching them with her own hands.

    "Um, Lana," Taara tapped Lana's shoulder, and her hand wandered to feel her new clothes- a bit fancier than anything else Taara had seen before, perhaps other than the highest of the dragonborn priests who worshiped Grohtgeit and the Metallic Dragons.

    "I had something to ask you. A few nights ago, when we faced that ice golem, I kissed you and that helped me get my special arms out. I realize I did not ask you if I could and so... um... sorry... er, sorry. That was unrelated. I mean, I feel uneasy about this place now that we were separated once... Make sure to stay close to me, okay? Even if Ghiso or Zarron have been locked behind a door first. Can you do that?" she looked at her girlfriend and waited for her smile and affirmation.

    Searching the counters you find 12 full vials, 8 empty vials, 5 empty jars, 7 empty bottles, a small bag of incense, items needed to assemble a component pouch, and everything needed to make an herbalism kit and an alchemist's kit except for a container to put the compounds in for transport.

    One of the vials appears to be a potion of healing.

    The vial with a conjuration aura is filled with a dark grey smoky fluid, it is hard to tell if it is a liquid or a gas.

    There is a vial with a transmutation aura with the contents separated into brown, silver, and gray layers resembling bands of stone. Shaking the bottle fails to mix the colors.

    Another vial with a transmutation aura contains a slimy green fluid that smells like tar.

    The vial with abjuration aura has a yellow liquid that glimmers when agitated.

    The vial with evocation aura has a blue liquid that glimmers when agitated.

    There are six other vials, the contents are constantly changing, shifting color and texture. They do not have a distinct aura.

    "It was nice!" Lana said, smiling. She looked over all the stuff, then the bottles. "Okay! If you think that's safer." She started putting the materials of an herbalism kit and component pouch into the empty vials and bottles. "Does anyone have a spare pack or sack?"

    Lana looked at Ghiso, then over her shoulder. "Oh! Right! I could have sworn it was dissolved in acid!" She started loading up her pack with the improvised component pouch and herbalism kit, but kept some seeds and feldspar in hand.

    "I think we had four packs and a couple of sacks in that cart we left outside," Zarron chimes in. He waits for Lana to take her first pick before he starts to plunder:
    1. Small bag of incense
    2. 2 empty jars
    3. 2 empty bottles
    4. 3 empty vials
    5. A vial with contents that constantly change color and texture
    6. And if there are sufficient materials left over, another component pouch.

    Taara stared at the constantly shifting potions and felt her pack before remembering something.

    "The lighting here would definitely cause the poison-light-moss-stuff to do its thing, and that is still in my pack," she explained, gradually trailing off as she hears Lana say that she has one. Some how she did not notice Lana's pack. Maybe she was distracted by something else. "Aaanyway, we can use those jars to hold it, we can coat the outside with something, that would be useful for holding that stuff."

    Lana took one jar and filled it with components, then looked at Taara. "Can I use some of your rope to tie this jar to my pack?" she asked, stuffing herbal stuff in her pack. The softer stuff went on the bottom, with mortar and pestle on top. She nodded. "This will work perfectly."

    As Zarron picks up the everchanging vial it stabilizes into a transparent liquid of golden-green color and there appears to be an olive floating in it. If you take out the stopper it smells like a mixed drink with notes of citrus.

    Zarron can get all of those things. How does he prepare the glassware for transport? The jars are 1 quart [1 liter], the bottles half that.

    "Unfortunately my rope is also in my pack and opening it would also cause the poison to come out," Taara lamented, and scratched her head. "In hindsight it might have been a bad idea to put it in my pack when it activated in light."

    She looked around the room and spoke with a hint of sarcasm, which was kind of unusual for her."Well, this looks like the good-things-that-do-not-hurt-us Lana predicted would be here."

    You open the door leading to the bartizan. It is a small cylindrical room that is mostly windows. It would offer a great view of the valley, if it was not for the thick fog that is still below the cave entrance.
    In the center of the room you see a sphere about 10 inches [25 cm] in diameter resting on a pedestal. It is transparent and halfway full of something, it is hard to tell from your current position.

    With detect magic you can see that the sphere has a very powerful conjuration aura.

    While moving around on this floor detect magic reveals that there are some more sources of magic on the floor above you.

    "Another room up above. Or roof. More magic. And the sphere is very magical" Ghiso raised his shield standing by Zarron "Can you try poking with your pole? without knocking it over? Just to see if we can touch it without exploding?" he was fairly sure a pole and a living hand were different things, but he also doubted it exploded in the first place.

    From his current position of about 18 feet [5.5 meters] away from the sphere Ghiso is unable to ascertain any specific purpose of the sphere.

    After tapping the floor with the pole to ensure he isn't stepping on any traps, Zarron takes a deep breath and approaches the sphere. With baited breath, he pokes it with the six foot pole very gently.

    While probing around Zarron narrowly avoids triggering a pressure plate.

    He taps the sphere with the pole and it goes *tink* it sounds like glass, it does not appear to react to being poked with a stick. It looks like it is half full of smoke or fog.

    Meanwhile in another room on the floor a large white and blue spider seemingly appears out of nowhere hanging from the ceiling and sinks its fangs into Lana's shoulder.
