The wall of the receiving room melts away to reveal a large chamber beyond. The floor is of translucent obsidian with ropes of flames writhing about in a random fashion. A huge, intricate silk rug covers the center of the floor. Its patterns geometric, arcane and illustrative of scenes of fiends and twisted landscapes. In the center of it all is a depiction of the eight arrows of chaos surrounded by alien scripts that seem to squirm and mutate as you observe them. In each corner of the room is a bookcase loaded with tomes, volumes, scrolls and stacked parchments. Low tables sit before each of these bookcases. Four intricate statues of fiends stand, two each on the right and left walls. Between these on each wall is a great chest made of stout wood and heavy iron bands. The far wall has two such chests. The center of the room is dominated by a grand table of exotic wood and jade with gold inlays. Beyond that table is another large table at the edge of the rug made of other exotic woods with silver inlays. Resting atop that table is a great sword cradled in two wooden stands. It is bare, with its scabbard also held by the stands. Murals cover the ceiling that is 20’ high. Sconces line the walls at 10’ high providing steady illumination for the room. Several large paintings hang on the walls above each of the chests. Two are on each side wall and two on the far wall.
Chadwick looks up while while dejectedly putting the crystal back in his pouch. "Dang it Kragen, step back and let me go first! You don't want some trap messing up that pretty beard."
He chuckles while scrambling to get between Kragen and whatever might be on the other side of the door.
/OCC I have no idea who is actually carrying it, it was in the party inventory.
Before entering the room Chadwick turns back and says "There was a floor we saw similar to this that would inflict harm of you spoke, so be cautious. That said, get yer asses in here quick and let's shut this thing. The squid heads have arrived." He pauses, then adds;
"Even if we can't close the door, it's easier to fight larger numbers when they can't overwhelm you."
Chadwick motions folks to go through but stands at the door as the rear guard until everyone is through.

Yay! Visual aids!
"Oh!" Chadwick exclaims loud enough to startle folks. He begins rummaging around in his belt pouches and finally digs out a Black ovoid crystal.
"Maybe this'll work" he says as he checks if it fits.
No
The ring does have an oval shape - interesting
Will the face of the ring fit into the depression? That would be a big gaudy ring!
Did we investigate the room post battle?
It looks like it does.
Kragen takes the ring and sticks the face into the depression.
”prepare yourselves!”

You hear muffled voices and the clamor of arms coming from the the hallway at the top of the stairs.
