The Valley of Ends

Onyx is not here for treasure this time. He will have a quick look at the chest without touching it and the continue sneaking inside. He will keep on looking for traps, mechanical or arcane nature.

perception 19

Onyx circles the chest and can just make out string coming out of the back of the chest where it rested against the wall. 

Salys calls in to Onyx, "Anything in there?"

As Onyx disappears as he takes  left into the cave, Del looks around, he watches the group he identified as the earlier group of worshipper making their way towards the central sun. The giant has moved so far, it's almost out of views around the sun's edge. He sees a few smaller islands appear and almost disappear as quickly. 

Onyx get’s startled by the shout and returns to the others: “I didn’t get to far. There is a chest, but i think it is traped. I saw some kind of rope attached to it. I didn’t see a person yet. We go inside together? They will know we are coming by now.”

“A weird place like this, are you sure it’s a rope? Not an ‘angler fish lure’ kind of deal?” 

Resfaen shudders at the mention of the angler lure and is hesitant to enter the cave, "I will stand guard out here."

“It wasn’t the best light and i didn’t want to touch it to examine it.” Onyx replies.

"Just as well go check it out together." Gotch says with a shrug. He stands up, dismisses his slightly-glowing chair, and looks to the group for who will take the lead on the way back in.

Salys hesitates, "If we're going to check it out, we ought to go together, but... Do we care? I thought we just wanted out? Is it worth the risk of antagonizing whatever else may live here?"

“I do not trust those hooded guys, so i do not trust whatever is over there!” Onyx points towards the “sun”. “I would feel better having some more information on what is awaiting us there.”

as it stands, Onyx, Gotch, Del are inside the cave, investigating the chest and 'hidden' doorway. Resfaen, Rogi, Salys and Cythriel are still outside. Nothing happening, just saying what I believe is positions. (7 out of 10m of Fly used up)

There isn't much to the cavern at this point, there's faint outline of a hidden passageway near the cave entrance but no immediate ways to open it. Farther down the cave after it turn left is a dark chest that melds into the darkness that Onyx has found a string come out of the back of it at a dead-end but refuses to touch himself. Half o the party remains outside after other seem to go inside to look for themselves.

(I'm just picturing chicken when something new is add to  their den. They may run up to it and try to trigger a reaction but they just circle it without touching)

Onyx wouldn’t be interrested on the chest, but more into where else the tunnel leads.

The tunnel is dead end, the chest sits at the end of the short tunnel. Even with half of the party in the tunnel is a bit cramped. 

Salys continues to stay outside, watching their surroundings and supporting Resfaen.

Resfaen will find a rock to sit down upon with her back against the mountainside, her head hung low. Salys can barely hear her whispers of prayers to her god asking Kelemvor for some form of guidance on what to do about her useless task against so much evil.

“There should be someone here? No? Who creates this island?”

Onyx looks around for hidden doors.23 perception (-6 for investigation)

Onyx found a hidden door near the entrance to the cave but couldn't find any ways to open it. The hidden door is parallel to the cave entrance. The tunnel itself turned to the left as you come in. If the hidden door was open, you could walk straight into it. 

Gotch stands by the hidden door as it is pointed out. he then summons his familiar to his side, then puts it in its extradimensional space, before summoning it forth again. This time he has it appear on the far side of the hidden door.
