"Agreed. I'm not fond of entering that fog but we might need the crown of that skeleton. Even if we blast it from afar, someone's still got to go in there and get it. I can flap my arms real fast, but if we had a spell to hit it with some wind, maybe we could get the fog to dissipate?"
Kurma seems to speak to himself for a few seconds and then looks at his companion. "Humm, my spirit companion is telling me that we won't be able to create an opening with my magic. Too bad, I guess we'll have to deal with the propeller then."
"About this fog, I am not sure what to do as well." Kurma takes one of his torches and see if the fire from the torch is having an effect on the fog.
Isabella will move up to Kurma "You okay?" Checking on him she will move on look for the skeleton head piece.
Kurma put off some small flames on his clothes. His skin is a bit burned. "I'm ok, I should have recognized this smell... These wounds are not too bad, nothing tat Oghma's magic can't heal" "Isabella, I leave the skull to you. Keep it with care, those skulls will be needed to open something."" Pointing at the stairs, Kurma adds: "Should we go check this passage ?"
Brunella hears the whoosh, and sees her companions burned. There appears to be a lot of burning going on, certainly. She takes the lead and takes a look at the stairs since her companions are hurt.
Eastward there is a final cavern. Water pours from cracks and seams in the rough walls of this cavern, whose floor is a muddy pool that flushes out into the tunnel beyond. Just above the pool’s surface, a large treasure chest dangles from rusty chains embedded in the ceiling.
The chest is 6 feet long, 3 feet wide, 3 feet high, and suspended 1 foot above the surface of the 5-foot-deep pool. A keyhole, shaped like a cackling demon skull, decorates the front of the lid. Encircling the keyhole, a tiny description in Common reads, "I devour all but the greatest thieves".
The chest is locked and doesn't appear to be trapped.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Well another chest in here, did anyone find a demon skull key?" She steps back about 30 ft and prepares an Eldritch Blast aiming it at the chain that holds up the chest.
“That seemed like a heavy chest. I could help recovering it, I’m good at holding my breath but I might need some help...I hope that’s not another mimic.”
Glancing at Oniss, Kurma adds: “First we might need to heal ourselves, this fire blast was quite strong”

Oniss gets closer to the fog and looks at it.
"I don't know any wind magic."
Oniss pulls out his dagger and sticks the tips into the fog and swirls it around, watching how it moves. investigation 18

The fog swirls with the dagger. Then it stops. There is nothing particularly weird about the way it reacted to Oniss' test.

And the fog instantly takes fire, and a "woosh" echoes throughout the entire cave...

OOC Yes.
Isabella will move up to Kurma "You okay?" Checking on him she will move on look for the skeleton head piece.

The flames flare up in front of Oniss and he takes damage. Oniss is unaware, but in addition to the pain he no longer has eyebrows.

The staircase seems to lead to a dead end.
Eastward there is a final cavern. Water pours from cracks and seams in the rough walls of this cavern, whose floor is a muddy pool that flushes out into the tunnel beyond. Just above the pool’s surface, a large treasure chest dangles from rusty chains embedded in the ceiling.
Isabella will investigate the walls and the pool for any threats.
