Chadwick and Kragen find no secret passages or other oddities.
Starker turns the wheels thusly. A hissing sound occurs as both sets of bars drop and the doors close with a resounding CLICK. Yartol slumps to the floor, asleep. The usual clanging, gear whining and clicking chains noises occur.

Starker is minding the wheels, completely absorbed. Yartol sleeps and Kragen tends to him. Chadwick watches the monkey walk over to the locked doors, behind the now lowered bars.
Trolkarl considers his life choices that have brought him here.
Xymox is assaulted by a wraith-like creature that flies *through* closed door next to him. The air and walls around this creature seem to bend as if you are looking through oddly warped lenses. There is a high pitched keening that pierces your ears and the upper limit of your hearing. Cyrus shrieks in pain, paws to his ears.
The creature lashes out at Xymox with tendrils of warped air and energy. Xymox deftly dodges both such attacks.
Xymox's proximity to the creature exposes him to a significant tugging towards the creature, as well in all other directions at once it seems. DC15 STR save = 11, he is pulled closer to the creature. First move of 5' away from the creature will now cost 10' of movement.
While Starker is continuing to medal with the turny thingys, Kragen and Chadwick will thoroughly investigate the walls for oddities, secret passages.
Investigation check (assisted by Chadwick) @ advantage = 18

Kragen checks on Yartol's condition concerned about the Ranger.

Cyrus cannot get past the now closed and locked doors. He is able to move through the iron bars though.

Xymox to act.
Xymox moves through the group and/or along the wall as needed.
"To arms! To Arms!" He points to the ghostly figure. "An evil spirit of some sort!"
He then launches Starry Wisp: 20 to hit. 11 damage.
