Flint unlocks and then opens the door to reveal a long staircase climbing up.
The stairs end at the entrance to an octagonal chamber. The floor is inlaid with cracked, dusty blue tiles, and the walls are dressed with polished marble. Large doors of iron-bound oak exit to the northwest and northeast.
Three cast bronze statues, almost ten feet tall, stand by the west, north, and east walls. Each depicts an armed dwarf. The eastern and western ones carry axes and shields. The center statue is armed with two axes. The ceiling rises in a dome almost thirty feet above the floor.
From somewhere in the distance, you can hear the faint ringing of hammer on anvil.
Flint stares at the statues in awe, "I don't know how you're going to carry those out but these would look great at Nashbae Tower. Get to lifting, girls!"

"...Debts must always be paid, sometimes in more than blood and gold. But this is Ordo Ursa," Ren places his hand on Erakas's chest, right where the Dragonborn's heart is. "Right here. And it always has been and always will be. Don't ever forget that. Because I won't."

Iroona stands up, smoothing her travel skirts. “We are on the right path. And by the sounds of hammering, we may not be alone. We should try to be quiet.”

You're in an octagonal chamber. The floor is inlaid with cracked, dusty blue tiles, and the walls are dressed with polished marble. Large doors of iron-bound oak exit to the northwest and northeast.
Iroona will march right up to the Northwest door, and try it. If it is unlocked, she will pull it open. hiding behind it as it opens. If it pushes open, she will wait and let Slate open it.

"Ahh!" Iroona leaps out of the way of one axe, stumbling over herself and falling into the path of the other. "Ow," she says, as she limps away from the door.
Just a trap that is done, or animated statues?

Slate
"I think we are on the right path" Slate says as she moved over to inspect the bronze statues.
Iroona will move with Slate and try to recall any lore about dwarves outfitted in such a way. She will look for writing or runes to read, too.
History, Arcana, and Religion all have the same bonus: 24

Slate
Slate adds to Iroona's withering stare by causing the ground to tremor. Then she turns back to Iroona, "Do you see anything of interest?"
Iroona recalls these look very similar to what the Durgeddin clan were known to wear and so you suspect you're on the right path.

Slate nodded, then took the lead heading in the direction of the hammering.

As Iroona tries to pull the Northwest door open, the two large stone axes in the statues hands on either side of the door fall down on her...

The axes appear to be staying put on the ground where they are - in front of that door - which you noticed when you opened it was fake.

"I swear, I'm hiring a trap specialist in every adventure from now on."
She runs her hands along the wound, there is a Celestial glow and it heals a little bit. Healing Light for 4 healing.
Iroona sweeps the chamber with her eyes, using Detect Magic and looking for anything she didn't notice before.

Other than yourself and some items on your companions you don't detect any other magic in the area.
