When the others are ready, Dev quietly pulls open the door just an inch and peeks in.
The room beyond seems to be a parlor of sorts, a little dusty but with obvious signs of occupation. Looking through the door to the right Dev sees a spiral staircase leading up to the next floor. A number of laden bookcases line the room and there are comfortable chairs and many embroidered quilts and cushions.
As Dev scans the room he notes there is a large silver cat? curled up atop one of the side cabinets....
Dev suddenly freezes when he sees the creature in the next room. To Quinn’s question, without removing his eyes from the silver feline, he places his finger to his lips. Then, “A cat creature. Let the others know?,” Quinn hears Dev say, soundlessly, in his mind. (message).
Retreating ever so slowly an inch or two from the cracked open door to allow room for subtle motion, Dev slowly raises his little pan pipes to his mouth with his white-gloved hand. Yellow lightning ever so softly sparkles along his horns, and the faintest echo of music is heard to suffuse the next room in its warm embrace. (Sleep, 25 HP unconscious.)

Lokilia watches closely as Normont examines the door. With his advice to Dev, she is ready for the door to be opened.

Quinn will whisper to Dev, "What do you see? Anybody in there?

Quinn will relay the message to the rest of the team.
Lokilia nods wordlessly when Quinn gives her the message. Seeing Dev start to play his pan pipes, she waits to see what the result might be.

"A cat creature? No just a cat?", Normont asks of Quinn, before realising Dev likely hadn't said more.
When he sees Dev start to play his pan pipes, he waits, assuming Dev has a plan.
