Mikey climbs up to the top of the ceiling, using his torch to light his way while he ascends into darkness.
What he finds is a small bundle of webbing that appear so to glint in the torch’s light. Moving closer toward it, and clawing away the webbing from the shiny object, he finds a small, translucent gem with a greenish hue to it. Holding it in his hands, he can tell it’s magical and given its protected location, he assumes it was valuable to the Spider King.
Assuming that 4 is insufficient, Mikey will say to the group: "Yo, bros! Check out what I found up high in the spider's lair! Anybody know what the heck it is?!" Shows gem to the rest of the party.
Leon assists Rowland in studying the map they located on the calligraphers body for directions to the two other “treasure” locations on the map or any detail of Drokki’s lair
In the cavern next door, you see many more bodies piled up...this appears to be where the 'used' carcasses are piled up. Grotesque is an understatement to describe this area.
Leon kneels in the entrance way to the cavern and says a short prayer to Tymora hoping the goddess of luck will guide the lost souls to the Raven Queen.
After a short rest in a carven piled high with dead bodies and the smell of rotting flesh, Mikey, who was focusing on the gem, Elmo who was focusing on the feather, Leon who was focusing on a potion and Gremryl who was focusing on another potion, they are able to identify the unique properties of each:
Gem of Seeing - Requires Attunement - This gem has 3 Charges. As an action, you can speak the gem's Command Word and expend 1 charge. For the next 10 minutes, you have Truesight out to 120 feet when you peer through the gem. The gem regains 1d3 expended Charges daily at dawn.
Feather Token - Bird. You can use an action to toss the token 5 feet into the air. The token disappears and an enormous, multicolored bird takes its place. The bird has the statistics of a roc, but it obeys your simple commands and can't Attack. It can carry up to 500 pounds while flying at its maximum speed (16 miles an hour for a maximum of 144 miles per day, with a one-hour rest for every 3 hours of flying), or 1,000 pounds at half that speed. The bird disappears after flying its maximum distance for a day or if it drops to 0 Hit Points. You can dismiss the bird as an action.
Potion of Healing x2 - You regain 2d4 + 2 Hit Points when you drink this potion. The potion's red liquid glimmers when agitated. One bottle has a red string attached to it. The other has a purple string attached to it.
“Care to loot a murder playground mates? Rowland and I already did the hard work. The necromancer’s pet skeletons are likely gone too. Me thieves sense tells me that there will be something of worth in the room. if you don’t mind walking through A putrid nightmare for items“
To Elmo: "I'm up for that party, dude! Let's roll!"
To Grem: "I feel like there is lots of damage I could do with a giant bird as a teammate! Care to trade me that there feather for this here gem of seeing?"
Mikey trades the stone for the feather: "Thanks, bro! You all have some real fancy gear and I feel like I could help out better if I had some as well!"

Mikey will descend back to where the rest of the party is. He'll then do an Arcana check to see if he can figure out what he's found.
Arcana check= 4
Assuming that 4 is insufficient, Mikey will say to the group: "Yo, bros! Check out what I found up high in the spider's lair! Anybody know what the heck it is?!" Shows gem to the rest of the party.
(4 is insufficient to identify its properties - a short rest while in physical contact and focusing on the item would reveal its properties to Mikey)

Perception check 20
The party will take a short rest. During it, Mikey will try to figure the stone out.
