Alexander will walk behind Blaze, ever alert for danger. He readies himself to attack anything that comes there way that appears hostile.

“Spirit. In every language in all the Realms, surface and Underdark, in every time and every place, the word has a ring of strength and determination. It is the hero's strength, the mother's resilience and the poor man's armor. It cannot be broken and it cannot be taken away.”
Oswald notices something unusual: while most of the battlement you are on is covered in debris, there is a rectangular patch a foot from the door that is mostly clear.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Oswald calls out, pointing to the clear rectangular patch of ground "Don't anyone step there!" Hurrying through between legs and mid-sections, excusing himself as he pushes himself forwards. Looking around, he locks eyes with Opal, beckoning her towards him "I believe this could use a second pair of professional eyes."
Kneeling before the cleared area, he traces some lines with his finger in a patch of dust, hoping he shares enough overlapping Thieves Cant with the Tabaxi so show this as a point of interest, a point of danger maybe?
What you have found is no doubt a trap door. There is a one foot catwalk that can safely be used to bypass it. Of course, you could trigger it to see if there's anything in it if you so choose.
This circular area is cobbled with cracked granite, upon which sprawl four goblins, all apparently slain in combat. One stands with its back against the western wall, the killing spear still skewering it and holding it upright. Three wooden doors lead off from this area. Above, a hollow tower of lose masonry reaches 30 feet, but the intervening floors and stairs are gone, except for a couple of crumbled ledges.

"Interesting, either the goblins are having an internal power struggle, they are fighting some currently unknown group for control of the area. It may be advantageous to find who every these goblins were fighting and find out if they could become allies."

Blaze looks to the Hunhow with a raised eyebrow, “Tracking? No fun tracking, I like to take guesses and let my gut lead me on.” And in an overly expressed walk, Blaze will try to go through the more Northwest door.
"A third group may be plausible, the Dragon cult that used to inhabit may still have some followers left..." muses Irina as she looks round the, making a thorough investigation of the floor and walls, moving any goblin corpses if she has to.
ooc: what kind of check to see how long the bodies have been there?

The bodies have been here about a month; rats have gnawed on the bodies. When Irina moves the goblin pinned to the wall, she finds hidden behind it draconic runes inscribed on the wall; Hunhow is able to identify it as saying "Ashardalon".
Irina also detects a secret hidden door at the south of the tower!
(OOC: I also know draconic for future reference ) Irina will mention the secret door to the others, "Signs, of the dragon cult's presence...Hey guys? I found a secret door on the wall over here, maybe we could open it?"
Oswald was last speaking to Kai, so I guess he's near the back.
Perception - 15

Blaze will stop and watch Oswald doing this. Waiting to see if he finds anything else strange in the vicinity.
Kai nods his appreciation of his sharp-eyed companions,and continues to look around to ensure no one or thing will ambush them.

I can probably smash it if you want.

"Do you think that the interior decorations will be as hostile as the surrounding plant life?"

You cautiously enter the tower.

"This place has seen better days. Seems like our missing people were here, if these goblins are any indication. Anyone here good at tracking?"

Blaze will stop in his tracks, walks to Irina and says, “Let’s give it a go shall we?” And Blaze opens the door to see what’s on the other side
When Blaze opens the door, a small needle shoots out!
Blaze, make a dexterity save.
