Karney exceeds the perception check and he discovers broken ribs... But before he can convey what he found a boulder from within the cave stands up and comes out. It's face is very majestic but it is very visible that he is very old as he looks at them his motives are quite clear. It is a Galeb Dhur, a guardian made by a druid, invisible when not moving, a boulder to even the most skilled. It is bending down now...a clear preparation for attack.
Brin calls out "I'm not good at talking to people. It usually turns into a fight. But maybe someone else could try asking that rock to let us through?"

Could Gurmond use his stonecunning trait to find out information about the galeb dur? If yes: History: 13
Yes. DC:medium
You remember that the god's main link to the earth was a druid who had helped him to set up protections around the dungeon and he was the very one who had made the first Galeb Duhr. But this one was smaller because the first one was said to be indestructible and tall as a mountain....but what was the druid's name? You are unable to remember.
Then the Galeb puts forward his hand in the direction of the earth and the earth splits open at his feet revealing a slab of stone engraved with writing... Then it hands it over to you. It says-
"Well I'm glad that's cleared up. Thanks Mr. Rock. " Quin says with an eyeroll "Some one grab that slab and let's go see what all this "God treasure" is all about. Maybe we'll find something that will actually give us some kind of frame of reference as to what this slab of rock is talking about. Cause random poems with no indication of a task means nothing to me. Maybe there is an actual puzzle inside the cave. "
Quin starts towards the cave opening but pauses, still walking but turning back towards the party he says
"On second thought, "What lies here is in your hand" so maybe put that down and then lets.go. "
As he continues to walk backward towards the cave entrance.

What would you do? Combat or peace?
Quin lowers his bow and moves farther to the side.
"Uh...I'd leave that Orc alone. It doesn't look like that one's done" he comments to the ones hovering over the fallen Orc.

Brenna steps back and to the side a bit further. "Let us leave this creature alone"
Which one are you talking about?
"I agree with Brenna. Let's leave both. Maybe if we back off Mr. Boulder over there will come out far enough and we can slip in. " whispers Quin.

Brenna looks at Treewy "You can see that boulder getting ready to charge us right?"
Yes i do! but there is also a half dead orc that someone wants to have a closer look at.
A deep rumbling issues from the rock monster and it looks straight at Gormond.....
Garnach casts Spare the Dying on the orc. I could also attempt to use Command to have the guardian move off our way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
As the guardian appears, Vaethyl will attempt to hide, holding any further action until the creature shows that it's hostile.
Orion backs away, and stands with his quarterstaff at his side.

Orion speaks up "we mean you know harm, we would like to pass through without conflict."

Karney looks up at the walking boulder and says, "I guess you don't like orcs better than we do."

You may try but the Galeb speaks terran only

It looks from one to the other quizzically and perks up at the word orc....
Then a deep voice issues from the cavern
"Turn back thief
This treasure is not yours...
Those who seek
A treasure of gods...
At every step you'll find
You life hanging by a thread so fine...
Prove yourself and pass this test
Or face my wrath and lay forever to rest..."
Then the Galeb puts forward his hand in the direction of the earth and the earth splits open at his feet revealing a slab of stone engraved with writing... Then it hands it over to you. It says-
"What lies ahead is a mythic
What lies behind is legend
Then what lies here that is in your hand"
