    At hearing the word "traps" Taara stopped in the middle of a step then took it back. She turned around and walked over to where Ghiso was, then to the nearest wall, and slumped there, holding the malachite in her hands. "Sorry. I got impatient."

    Zarron spends the rest period trying to piece together the scraps of painting and chamberpot. He also sings a stirring ballad about a group of courageous explorers who valiantly battled through a host of demon-possessed houseware. Surely, nobody could have survived the evil painting's multiple casting of Meteor Swarm and the devil pot's Power Word Kill! But through the power of friendship, they persevered and defeated their foes.

    Lana, whose horn was melted by acid, spent the rest touching nothingness to her mouth and blowing. She'd never gotten to play the horn for Taara, and she determined that this would have to change.

    Taara finds that the other room on the top floor of the tower is mostly empty. There is a bed frame in the corner and a fireplace. Hanging on a hook is a cloak and backpack.

    After resting, Taara silently walked up to Ghiso and hugged him (of course, with her height, it's just around the waist, and she barely reaches halfway around) and pressed her face against his armor. After standing there like that for 5 seconds she moved to Lana and waited for everyone to decide to go into the next room.

    "...I, uh, thank you" Ghiso said, too surprised to react at the gesture. He thought of saying that Taara didn't need to, figuring it was because she still felt guilty, but decided that there was no reason to remark it and undermine the value of the gesture. They could always talk next time they got time.

    He Ritual Casted Detect Magic, then followed the group into the room to inspect it.

    Zarron insults the bed frame, the hook, the fireplace, any carpets on the floor, the cloak, and then the backpack, finishing off with a sharp jab with his ten foot pole, in that order. Can't be too careful with animated objects being an option!

    Nothing comes alive or attacks.

    In the fireplace under some ash there is a chunk of petrified wood with an evocation aura. The draconic word for "Fire" is inscribed in it.

    The cloak has an aura of abjuration.

    The backpack has a conjuration aura.

    Ghiso nodded at cloak and backpack.
    "Those two are magical- the cloak is protective, the backpack... Makes stuff. Can't say more until we sit down and examine them, but it doesn't look like there is anything bad in here. Oh, the piece of wood" he pointed at the fireplace "Is Evocation like the freezing and heating tablets. My guess is an endlessly burning wood, but it's only a guess. Should be takeable"

    Zarron scoops this magical endless burning wood and looks at it. He feels strangely drawn to it. He starts hissing the word he heard Ghiso use on the stone tablet at the petrified wood.

    Taara takes a look at the cloak, considering it was not armor and if it was protection it might be useful for her, but immediately turns away because of how uncute it looked. So she went to Lana and made sure nothing happened to her while she messed with the backpack.

    After Zarron says the command word for the magical hot plate the petrified log does nothing, but Ghiso's backpack begins to get warm.

    There is nothing inside the backpack you found, but for some reason you have trouble touching the bottom of it from the inside, your entire arm goes in but you cannot reach the bottom even with your fingers outstretched.

    After hissing the activation phase a few times and seeing no result, a disappointed Zarron hands the petrified log to Ghiso and starts examining the cloak that Taara carelessly discarded.

    "I think it's broken."

    The second Ghiso's backpack starts heating up he hurriedly speaks the command word to shut down the heat tablet.
    "Maybe. How about we don't try activating it or its cousins while I'm carrying them anymore?" he suggested slightly bothered, sliding the block of wood inside the bag.

    "Looks like this is the last room. I think we could take these items and leave?" he said "Lanitfat, everything alright?"

    Taara, similarly confused, watched Lana all the way down in the bag. She wanted to take a look in it, but then Lana started to turn it inside out.

    Zarron tries to suppress a giggle. "Sorry, Mr. Ghiso!"

    Once Ghiso turns his attention to digging out the rune, Zarron goes to the mini-apothecary and empties it of every flask, bottle, vial, potion, and material components, all of which he will stack on the cart waiting outside the tower. Since the Lord of the tower is long gone, he probably wouldn't mind being ransacked, right?

    If he has time to spare, the half-elf will attempt to study the cloak in greater detail. There has to be something special with it, since Ghiso mentioned its abjurative aura earlier.

    "Being magical, it's at least more resistant then the one you are using. I have an inkling regarding what it does, but I can't be sure without examining it" Ghiso stated with a nod.

    "I'll go pick out the fear trap back down since we seem to have emptied the place- if somebody could stay with me just in case some nasty surprise is still around you'd do me a favor" regardless of the reply he went to do it.

    So yeah, picking it out of the wall. When it looks like he's close to finishing Ghiso will create a Tenser's Floating Disk to place the rune on and use a bedroll to cover it. He'll refresh the Disk any time it takes before it runs out of time.

    Also he'll Help Zarron pack the cart giving him advantage.

    Zarron stacks up the cart to the best of his ability.



    As soon as he gets a chance to do so, he takes the cloak and wraps it around the water genasi. "Cloak of protection," he offers in way of explanation, without actually explaining that the resident healer should probably not be the squishiest of them all.

    Taara sits and listens to Lana hum during the rest, wishing she had an instrument to play along. When Zarron approaches with the cloak and gives it to Lana, she watches Lana kiss him on the cheek. She looks at Zarron for a little, blankly, before turning to Lana and looking her over. "You look really cute in that," she said without prompt. "What was that about? Do you like Zarron?"
