"I am sorry, Uncle Fulcra," not extremely believably apologized Cimeri, with her happy excitement returned after successful overcome of the first puzzle and graceful landing at the door (she was way too clumsy all day before). She did not understand the whole argument, but the main point - "do not embarrass adults by your accidental knowledge" was clear. Taman's rightful criticism and Azaka's sudden appearance did not turn her mood down, but Celtra's attempt to leave returned back to serious dungeoning: "Wait! We do not know how to return yet!" Anything could happen in that strange place if you do something wrong and first of all with people down in the pit.
"Can we get everyone up? It is safer up here" The notion was questionable at best but at least at the ridge there were no blades.
"It does not seem a good idea for anyone to come back across the tiles at this point." Taman calls up. To his companion next to him he nods his head. "I'd say go ahead and see if you can help on the outside." He confirms the giant-kin's question. It is weird hearing everything from the vantage of the bunny-familiar, but Taman is getting use to it.
Fulcra looks down at Bryn, "Hey Bryn, could you go get Azaka, and bring our supplies in here. Maybe put them in the pit where they'll be safe? And then bring Azaka to the temple. There's not too much we can do about the canoe. Then you and her can make your show of force at the temple's entrance, but if whatever is out there proves too much, at least you can come back in here. I feel like the bunch of us could hold back a pretty good number of assailants with that pit in the way. But we can't lose our supplies, or we're dead."
He looks down at Taman, who is unseeing, and then looks over at the uni-carrot to make eye contact, "Friend. With light hearts shall hope and success find fertile ground."

With a nod, Celtra faces the door and cracks her knuckles. He then looks for a way to open the door. If she finds nothing, she will try and push it open.
Glyph removed, the door pops open under Celtra’s push. Cimeri can see in the darkness inside:
The floor of this dusty, 40 foot high, 20 foot wide chamber is littered with dinosaur bones. Webs stretch from the walls to a 30 foot tall central pillar, coiled around which is a narrow stone staircase, its steps covered with dust. Carved into the pillar are reliefs of a man carrying a crocodile. The reliefs follow the stairs to the top of the pillar, on which sits a large, ornate ceramic jug.
Bryn and Azaka bring the first load of trappings into the temple.
Cimeri will describe everything she sees. The web gave her pause (she was not particularly arachnophobic, but combination of spider web and dinosaurs bones makes one question the size of the spiders). The she would make a step inside (just a step) - to see more clear and to be the one, who might actually go up to that mysterious jug.
"Spiderwebs? I dont like spiders. Cant we just toss a torch in and burn the webs? I mean it probably would kill the little spiders and if there is something big then it should force it to come to ground level," Celtra says. She then pulls out a torch and some flint and steel. Looking at the others she says, "just say the word and I'll do it."
"The door is protected by a Ward." Taman calls to those above. "I suggest not touching it until we have time to figure out how to bypass the ward."
When their guide calls in, he shrugs, knowing they are in far too delicate of a position in here for him to leave.
Taman tries to see if he can tell how to pass the ward...
Arcana with guidance... 15
"I can go?" Bryn would check with the others to see if she's needed in here right now. She'd be willing to go assist Azaka.
just an unstable unicorn.
Celtra responds as well, "I could go as well. You all tell me where ya want me."

What's the difference between a Wizard and a Sorcerer?
Class.
Taman:
The glyph is on the lower right corner of the door; a tiny runic symbol etched in the wood
destroying the glyph will destroy the ward
Bryn joins Azaka to explain the plan and begin gathering the supplies.

Taman directs Sabastian to use his horn to scratch out the ward.
It is done. What now?
"The door should be safe now." Taman calls up. "Any sign of a way to open it?"
Fulcra, “Celtra, I believe your speciality may come in handy in this instance.”

(Does Taman see the same, through Sabastian's eyes?)
"Right, darkness," Celtra says. "Anyone got a torch or a light or something."she will then shift from foot to foot as she peers into the unknown.
Assuming Azaka and Bryn have finished unloading the first load and will be returning for a second.

In case we are going with the fire, Cimeri will step out before torch is thrown in and will shut down the door with Thaumaturgy after it is trhown.
