Crudely executed symbols and glyphs, scribed in bright green dye, decorate this large and irregularly shaped crumbling chamber. A large pit in the center shows evidence of a recent fire. A metallic cage in the middle of the southern wall contains a gaping hole and stands empty. A small wooden bench draped with green cloth is next to the cage, and several small objects rest on it. A bedroll lies near the wooden bench, and the sound of whimpering comes from inside it.

My top 3 answers: "You can try to do that." "No, that does not mean I like pans." "Yes, I am pansexual."
Jackpot... Voraxian thinks to himself with a broad grin.
At first he is unsure where to look—the cage, the fire, the objects on the bench, the whimpering bedroll—but it's the sigils and glyphs that catch his eye more than anything. The secrets of the arcane arts are tantalising to him and he steps forward to study them, whispering his own incantation as he does.
[[Arcana 21 to try to decipher the glyphs with help from Guidance.]]
The symbols on the walls are crudely formed in Draconic and read, "Here There Be Dragons." The metallic cage is all but destroyed and can't be used to restrain captives.
Tyr approaches the whimpering bedroll, but it does not react to your approach.
I uhhh... casted wish to fall asleep for a while...?

Fayez's excitement is still fully on display.
"Well we can't go that way, on to the middle door!"
Fayez will open the middle door. He will probably start being more cautious when things go wrong but for now he is to exited.
Voraxian, seemingly less patient than Fayez, frowns a little in disappointment.
"I hope this door hides more than just dust and musty air!"

Does anyone speak draconic?

[[Voraxian does.]]
Yes Fayez does
Perry keeps and eye out while the party investigates the whimpering.
If there are loose bars from the cage, he takes one.

Tyr slowly approaches the whimpering form
Tyr wonders if this adventure is active...

"Here there be dragons..." Voraxian whispers aloud for those unable to read the glyphs. His eyes widen partly in awe and partly in fear.
"Dragons!" he repeats louder.
While Tyr is taking care of the whimpering bedroll, Voraxian turns his attention to the objects on the bench.
