Garet carefully reaches into the recess and pulls out a cube of electrum, carefully cleaning it of the acid it is carved on each side with the alchemical symbol for fire.
Moving to the tunnel Shalana had revealed Banzo casts Light on a stone and throws it down the tunnel.
You can see in the relatively bright light all the way to the end of the hrnhel, where it joins a cross-tunnel. An iron portcullis blocks the way. On the wall to the right are two levers.
The holes and scratching sounds do not seem to continue into the new tunnel.....
Having no sense of time, Tzedaka waits for the heroes dispassionately. She reflects on the meeting with Zagor and the evil he has wrought on Allansia and ultimately on the whole of Titan itself.
She knows he is only a puppet and is being used but his day of judgement is quickly approaching. She continues to reflect on the labyrinth scroll, now memorized, and hopes they may come across something she recognizes.
She waits, not moving, breathing slowly, and reflects, her eyes completely white, lost in her own confused and intermingled thoughts.
Garet fresh from his success with the electrum cube, makes his way down the tunnel.
Seeing the portcullis and the levers he frowns, it seems an obvious dilemma one will no doubt open the door ahead the other will probably trap them.
Taking out his Thieves Tools he begins to investigate both levers to see if he can determine the affect of a level being pulled. Hoping that Tzedaka is correct and his old skills haven't deserted him.
Garets keen senses immediately note that one of the levers is actually a dark wax mold over a serrated rusty blade, apparently a rather cruel trap...though crude. The other lever appears functional and untrapped.
Garet smiles wryly and yes it appears that his skills haven't deserted him avoiding the crude but effective trap, he pulls on the other lever but keeps one of the prybars they have made earlier ready if the second lever is also a trap of some sort.
As the heroes move down the hall, Tzedaka come back into the now awareness. Here eyes return to their normal vibrant royal blue, her breathing comes out of a meditative state to a normal respiration.
Tzedaka casts Guidance on Garet, to assist him. (target can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to one ability check of its choice. It can roll the die before or after making the ability check. )

The portcullis rises up and locks into place, though it is not quiet. Ahead your options are left or right.
(Unless I'm confused, we are going through an area that was covered in a fake wall.) As the portcullis rises and the two passages reveal themselves, Tzedaka will again study the area and compare to the scroll of closed-off tunnels to try to determine if one way is better than the other

As far as she can determine unless the earthworks were very extensive this area does not correspond to the map.
"Someone took great care to hide this path." Enwynn says quietly, looking at the shattered facade curiously then suggests "If whoever did this didn't want it found, and had the authority here to hide it, then we may want to find out just what it is or was that they were hiding away."
Her eyes linger on Tzedaka a moment, yet again pondering the woman's odd changes of mood, but as that is but one worrying oddity among the many found so far in this dire place, the elf puts that aside for now and deals with the situation to hand.
Tzedaka will look carefully in the area (Perception: 22
Under one of the pieces of stone Tzedaka finds a battered bronze cylinder, looking within she sees an electrum tetrahedron with the alchemical symbol for earth on each side.
( Ok, in the interests of moving forward.)

Ooc sorry for any delay with the chain room.

Like a young child, Tzedaka grabs Tannins hand in her own, and will start wandering toward the left passage.
Her sharp watchful eyes scanning ahead
(Heroism on Tannin)
Shortly after rounding the corner of the tunnel only a few metres along the way is blocked by a massive rockfall.

Tzedaka will look carefully in the area (Perception: 17
Under one of the pieces of stone Tzedaka finds a battered bronze cylinder, looking within she sees an electrum tetrahedron with the alchemical symbol for earth on each side.
Tzedaka looks at Banzo and Enwynn and hands them the cylinder, "Is dis vessel for eelements you seek?"
"Your perception astounds me, Tzedaka." Tannin smiles.

Tzedaka smiles, "I see from beyond and before"
She continues to hold Tannin's hand, like a child holding her father's hand.
"I yike you. You have a good heart Tannin Tziynok."
Tzedaka: "Is dis vessel for eelements you seek?"
Enwynn looks at the bronze cylinder carefully before answering the question.
OOC: Arcana (Int14+5) Roll: 25
EDIT: Well Enwynn threw her brain at it, but with that roll, I suggest asking Banzo might be a better idea.
Tannins cheeks turn purple
