"Well this is done. I suggest to have our rest. This room seems to be cleared of danger for now."
Then looking the the sarcophagus, Kurma adds: "The carving on the sarcophagus resembles to Moa, the jaculi, one of the trickster gods. From what I remember they were killed or dispatch by Acererak, sooooo... they might not want to kill us ?".Kurma is not totally convince by his logic. "Let's open it, but after our rest. Agree ?"
Brunella, usually silent, feels it is extremely important to impress on the party to not disturb anything. "We must rest. No talking. No opening. No touching. Rest first."
"I couldn't agree more. Let's get some much deserved shut-eye."
Frowning at the alchemy jug that has already been used for the next 24 hours with the oil on the spiders, he mummers to himself before leaning against a wall and falling to his arse, "Damn. I could really use a drink right about now."
Isabella will prepare a Eldritch Blast in case anything pops out of those two entrances. If nothing happens she will wake the next person for the shift.

After 1 hour or so, the hammering downstairs stops and the noise of chains outside the chamber indicates that, whatever is handling those chains, is going downstairs as well.
Brunella falls into a deep slumber. Her sleep is perturbed by strange and frightening dreams. A dream of a Yuan Ti constricting the life out of her. A dream of her turning into a stone gargoyle. A dream of her party members falling into lava, screaming for help, reaching their hands out, while she is too afraid to act.
She wakes up physically rested but emotionally disturbed. Her flaming sword is out, and the first thing she does is light it. She does a check to make sure everyone is present, and alive.
Her wounds are better, although there are large scars on her body from where the gargoyles raked at her skin. She then helps the others get up, extending a hand to Gertrude.
Brunella follows Isabella to look at the entrance. She also remembers that Kurma wanted to open the sarcophagus. "Can someone look for traps? If it's clear, I'll open the lid," she says.
OOC: As per discord chat, Brunella will open the lid after someone (Isabella?) Checks for traps on the lid with guidance from Kurma
Gertrude takes Brunella's hand and smiles weakly. She then takes a minute to imbue her new staff with the crimson rite.
Hearing the others talk about the sarcophagus, Gertrude looks closely at it 9. She tries to see if there are any traps (didn't Bell check the whole room before?), but also tries to figure out what they're supposed to do to appease those trickster gods and help them through this maze of danger.

Kurma sees the all team running like chicken , trying to find traps where there's none... After a few minute, he places his hands on the sarcophagus and says: "Ok, let's do it, who is helping me?"

Oniss nods his head to Brunella and says with a sly smile;
"I agree it is time to rest. Now that we have destroyed the cursed skull in the room we shall all rest better. Last thing we want is more surprises."

Exhausted, the party decides that this is the right room to take a rest, where the smell of burned undead spiders and a skeleton is still in the air.
During Isabella's watch, sounds of brushes and hammers are heard from the second level below. And a fearfully familiar sound of chains...
Still exhausted she will check the area for any other entrances beside the mouth.

Getting up she let's out a sigh "There's an entrance, over there by the north wall."

"Okay I'm more of a historian but yeah I can look for traps..." Isabella moves to the sarcophagus and inspect it for traps.

The sarcophagus contains inside a bundle of faded cloth holds the serpentine bones of a jaculi and a staff.
Without touching the staff Isabella would like to apprise the staff for any history or monetary value.
History: 22
Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiAThe manufacture of the staff is certainly good, maybe it is even magical. The monetary value would be around several hundreds of gold pieces.
