You are all standing in the hallway to the room where the topaz was found. Chadwick is in the room beside the secret door that is open. The air creature is hovering about 10 feet away from Chadwick and is not responding to his question.
There is no change in the air creature. It continues to float about 10' away from you. It is composed of swirling air and wisps of cloud-like vapor. You can perceive areas that are where eyes would be as well.
At the back of your formation, Gneuman notices that a new wall has appeared. This blocks the hallway leading to where you arrived and the mimic room. It is of the same construction as the other walls and indistinguishable from them.
The air creature continues to hover in place about 10’ from Chadwick.
Chadwick notices that all of the gems are cut the same way. They have the same shape and facets.
Maybe bring the rest of the gems in?
Might not want to have the gold on you though.
Let’s consolidate the gems with one person. Perhaps someone with diplomacy (charisma), which isn’t me.
I'm like a Lab; friendly but dumb.
I have a 14 Charisma, but no diplomacy skills.
Charisma is probably the best anyone has? I don’t see anyone in the party that looks like a diplomat.

I'll gather up the rest of the gems, then show them to the air creature.
Is this what you're looking for?

I bet each gem and room represents one of the elements, and we have to put the right gem in the right room.
Unless anyone objects I'll put the diamond (air) where the topaz was.
I approve this strategy.
Diamond on the floor. No visible effect.

Do they look like they might fit together?
No, they are not interlocking. They are the same shape and cut.
We have access to the statues. I’m going to see if a gem will fit in a statue. Random gem, random statue.
Give me your selection.
Topaz
Emerald
Diamond
Sapphire
Skull - NOT
Eagle - A REWARD (sapphire)
Armored Dwarf - TAKEN (topaz)
Robed Dwarf - EARNED
pasted those for reference in the same place
I’m going for sapphire in skull. If anyone else has an idea after this goes pear shaped, type away
The gem fits perfectly in the depression in the statue. No thing happens when you place it.
As you move to the central room, the air creature follows you. It moves to the center of the room over the central island.
Once all of you move into the circular room another wall of stone materializes. This blocks the hall you entered from.
You have all four gems with you at this time.
I try putting the sapphire in the eagle.
The sapphire “clicks” into place and softly glows a blue radiance. The runes become backlit with a blue radiance - A REWARD
The air creature begins to appear more “swirled” as well. There is a gentle movement of air in the room.
I’ll try the topaz in the eagle first and progress if it doesn’t click.
