There are no traps. Per se. The maze of tiny passages that are cut into the walls conceals a horror. Kurma can the faint yet grotesque scuttling of insects from within. Hundreds of tarantula-sized undead spiders crawl through these warrens.
The voice of a young girl echoes in your mind: "What's happening? Why can't I see?" The voice comes from the skull in the crystal box.
Hearing the disembodied voice of a little girl struck Irommek as more than a little creepy. However, the strain of the past day in the tomb was starting to take it's toll and Irommek sat down heavily on the floor.
"Dwarves are known for their stamina, but this Dwarf is getting old and I could use a rest my friends. How about setting up watch and getting some shut-eye here?"
Groaning slightly, Irommek moved over against a wall, covered himself with his shield like a blanket and stared at the skull until the image of it and the case started to blur and his mind began to wander.
"Dwarves are known for their stamina, but this Dwarf is getting old and I could use a rest my friends. How about setting up watch and getting some shut-eye here?"
Kurma sees that the whole group is exhausted, so much pain, so much fear. "Very well, I think this place is as bad as any other to rest. Let's keep a watch while some of us can get some rest."
OOC: Could Kurma know who is Napaka heir to the Ancient Throne as well ? (History: 17)
"Well Napaka, I am unsure how you got here. I hate to break it to you but you appear to be a either in a sarcophagus or a skull. What do you last remember?"
Brunella nods at Isabella, glad the group is agreeing to rest. She puts one hand behind her head as she gets ready to fall asleep, the other gripping her sword by her side in case things go wrong.
"Well Napaka, I am unsure how you got here. I hate to break it to you but you appear to be a either in a sarcophagus or a skull. What do you last remember?"
"What? Nooooooo..."
The voice shrieks in horror as the skull 's eye sockets flare with green flame. With a shattering crash, the crystal box explodes and the skull levitates into the air.
Swarms of undead spiders starting crawling out of the warrens.

Isabella's will investigate the sarcophagus, turning to Kurma and the others "Let's not open this one just yet okay guys..."

The sarcophagus seems not to be connected to any trap and isn't locked. The lid seems heavy, but nothing that the party can't manage.
"Well I don't see any traps or anything. Didn't you all need a long rest?" Isabella mentions as she moves on the skull studying it.
[Do I need another investigation?]
Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiABrunella nods. "Yes, we are hurt and tired. We should rest."

Kurma is surprised by the voice. "Hello, I mean no harm. Who are you?"

"Nepartak, granddaughter of Napaka heir to the Ancient Throne. Where am I? How did I get here?"
The voice sounds like a terrified 10-year old child.
Once Isabella hears Nepartak mention her name and grandfather's name. She would like to make a history check to figure out who she is.

The history is lost, but one thing is known. Napaka was the last living Queen of Omu.
"We should rest outside the mouth, I'll keep watch first."
Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiAOniss will respond to the voice and skull.
"Well Napaka, I am unsure how you got here. I hate to break it to you but you appear to be a either in a sarcophagus or a skull. What do you last remember?"
