As all in the temple silently judge Fulcra for not feeding his pet, Sebi lands on the tile. And looks super cute doing it. And nothing happens. [are we confidet we know how this trap works? We can montage to the next trap if so...]
Fulcra sure knew how to kill the mood and to make someone ashamed of himself. But it was said - "truthful words are not beautiful" - and those words were indeed truthful, Cimeri allowed to endanger an innocent creature just to save herself. She turned away thoroughly ashamed and sweared that it will never happen again. It was too late to jump on the puzzle-floor now (who knows how it would react to additional weight?) and young tiefling continued to watch the movement of poor Sabastian - not with excitement anymore, but with fear.
OOC: Confident or not, but it looks like we are doing it to the end (of the puzzle).
"The familiar cannot die." Taman says with a sigh as the talk clearly goes in that direction. "If this body is reduced to nothing, the spirit will just inhabit the next body I call forth." He does not understand why so many get so caught up with the health of such beings. He likes, and respects, his familiar, but even Sabastian would agree that he is only a spirit taking the form he currently wears.
Fulcra looks around at the party members all silent in their own thoughts from his random babble but not saying a word. He shrugs with a carefree smile and moves the bunny to the next spot. (Assuming it’s working like we think it’s working, montage away!!!)
”Maybe we can call it Uni-carrot. I mean. Why are horses with a horn called ‘uni-corn’. It’s a horn, not a corn. Unless the horn is made of corn. So maybe it’s cause horses like to eat corn. Which makes uni-carrot really make a lot of sense.”

What's the difference between a Wizard and a Sorcerer? Class.
OOC: Assuming Cimeri survives our first dungeon crawl and situation would not be forgotten, Taman is in for a crash-course about value of life of every creature :)
"Cornis, not "corn". It means "horn" in Loross - old Netherese tongue." It was not a show-off (surely a Red Wizard knows such things?), Cimeri was by far not a scholar of any sort, but horns was a touchy subject and the one she was quite ... involved with and learned all she could at some point. She was watching Sabastian's movements intently, trying to memories the path. Just in case and as a destruction from worries about the creature.
Celtra began to pace at the bottom of the pit. She was frustrated that there wasn't much for her to do. That said, there was a sort of anxious anticipation going on. The group she found herself with appeared quite capable despite the pit set back and found herself somewhat excited to see where things progressed.
You ascertain that the trap can be navigated as you expect, but this still limits the crossing of the tiles to one person at a time. Who will be the first to cross the tiles, climb the seven foot wall and interact with the door? Who will be second, as there’s only room for two side by side in front of the door?
Cimeri will be the first - as soon as Sabastian is safely on the other side, she will follow. Does the tile on the wall still lit or is she doing it from memory?
Bryn will hold up the rear. It'd allow her to watch their backs and to study what everyone else does first to make sure she successfully does the same.
Fulcra moves Sebastian up to the ledge in front of the door so Taman can look at it; as the weight of the almiraj leaves the tile, the glowing symbols reset. So she will need to hear from Taman which symbol lights up as she goes. At the end of the tiles, she will need an athletics check or to scale the ledge. If Celtra is antsy she could go check on Azaka or explore the outside...
Celtra will follow the instructions to make it past the glyphs with everyone. The anticipation of what to come is exhilarating.

LOL. Cimeri and Celtra are the only ones able to stand on the ledge in front of the door, with Sebastian between them. this wooden door with the carven images stands in front of them, with no hinges, latch, handle or keyhole. Fulcra stands on the edge in front of the tile trap. Bryn and Taman are still below, where the blades have been jammed. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Fulcra cautiously helped Celtra up onto the ledge next to him, and then gives her bottom a pat and winks as she hops onto the first tile. “Good luck”.
He continues to stand there as they investigate the door across the room. Feeling useless. Obviously the best way he can help is to talk. “You know Cimeri, as your natural uncle figure.....given Taman is clearly more responsible and less fun, making him the father figure, Ill limit my lecture time, but in this case I have to say that educational topics across the world are inconsistent at best. To assume that every person has had the teachings of netherese vocabulary and history and to think less of anyone who hasn’t, even if they had, and are just trying to make a joke about uni-carrot, but you ruin it by bringing reality into it....well.... hmmmmm.....I forgot my train of thought. Anyway. Rude. Don’t ruin people’s jokes. That’s my point. Mostly my jokes. Feel free to ruin other people’s jokes.”
"There is no room for fun right now." Taman informs the talkative one above him. "There is plenty of time for fun when we are not in the middle of a jungle, attempting to explore some ancient tomb filled with traps." He does not add that he is currently standing between who knew how many razor-sharp blades only barely stuck inside the walls to either side of him. he also refrains from pulling his sight from Sabastian's form, though he would have liked to make sure the mold earth was still holding back those blades, and that one had not started to slip yet.
Fulcra and Bryn see a silhouette appear in the light at the temple entrance. “are you all needed in there?”, shouts Azaka. “I sense prowlers in the jungle; a show of force may be necessary...”
She draws her scimitar and leaves the entrance heading back out into the sun.

Bryn would be somewhat mortified, wide eyed about them casually talking about the fuzzy animals death, even if it is a familiar.

With the key to the passage figured out, Taman will walk everyone through which tile to step on as they move towards the door.
Athletic: 21
Cimeri will try to get out of the way of everyone coming after her - where do we all stand now?

(All seems correct to me)
Taman checks out the door through Sabastian's eyes... Probably do perception since he cannot actually touch the door to investigate it...
Perception: 23 (Add 1 if investigation works instead)

@taman
Through Sebastian’s eyes you clearly can see that this door is protected by a glyph of warding.
Fulcra and Bryn see a silhouette appear in the light at the temple entrance.
