"If you are healed enough to continue, we likely need to check yonder door." Leon says with a nod to Ramious and then to the door on the far side of this chamber. "I'll have a look at the chain mail while you are looking over the door." He does so, casting identify on the chain mail as a ritual.
While everyone was sitting on the side of the pool (or may be standing - after all, the water was still covering the floor, or, in case of Ramious, may be even checking the next exit) dripping muddy water and waiting for the spell to do its magic, a familiar voice filled the room.
"Ah! Is not it exciting? The battle, the treasure! Like a real adventure, don't you think? Would not hold against you the death of my goldfish - they served their purpose and I was thinking about replacement for some time. Well, don't just sit around - you have so much to see yet!"
The voice disappeared as suddenly as appeared before and again, all you could hear was the rumbling of the mountain. The exit that Ramious was checking, actually did not have a door - there were stairs up that led to the straight corridor, that in turn ended with the very heavy looking metal door. Near the stairs, though, to the right there was a normal (well, usual) wooden door.
Ramious stands part way up the stairs, and waits for the group to be ready to go. "Hallways, two doors," he says. Glancing around the "air" he frowns unhappily at the thought of being watched constantly.

(I knew we agreed on the bag of holding, I just wasn't sure who had it lol Glad someone responsible with tracking has it. I'll add 150g to sheet?)
When the elf would break the surface of the water, running their fingers through their hair to push it out of their face, their illusion would flicker. For that brief moment some of Alyssa's features returned.
A would swim up, unloading their haul of the treasure at Ramious' feet. The tiefling's boisterous jest over the loot had registered just in time to get him a familiar upturn at the corner of the elf's lip. "I knew Bernard would patch you right up. He takes good care of you." They'd lift themselves out of the water. "Those leeches he used on you last time were brilliant!" They'd add with slipped enthusiasm, their lip tugging into more of a smirk.
"Hmm?" When Ramious would ask his last question they'd glance to the chainmail Leon had in his hands, already being identified. "On it!" They'd jest.
Then much like many times in the past, the wizard would use the winning combination of magic to wick themselves dry.
A's brows would furrow and head dips for them to hold their chin thoughtfully when the voice would fill the room. At least it was chipper and encouraging? Not thinking much more of it, the elf would stride over to round the corner at the steps where Ramious stood. "Shall we just check the first one?" They'd point to the door.
Once done identifying the armor, Leon would follow after the others. "Standard magical chain, just adds a bit to your protection while you wear it." He announces to the others. "Anyone want it, or should we toss it into the bag of holding as well?" he holds up the armor. Once that is decided he will nod to the door as well. "Sounds like a good place to start." he agrees with A.
While Leon is casting his ritual, Bernard is packing the items into the bag of holding. "Dang, already making the money on this one..." he says when the voice interrupts. He frowns, "I guess this means he's able to watch our every move. I don't like that..." Then he laughs and turns to Ramious, "Hey Ramious, I think he can see us, why don't you moon him? Maybe it will deter him for awhile."

Ramious looks at Bernard and growls, "I'm not a fan of him watchin us. He doesn't get to see my bare ass until we're face to face."
He walks up to the first door and looks it over for traps, along with the hallway floor and ceiling...a bit unusual for him, but he seems less cavalier than usual for some reason. He turns to A who is right behind and asks for help. Investigation: 19
If "the voice" was watching, he totally missed the chance for a good remark on that conversation, and door investigation went in relative silence.
The door here is standard (for that dungeon, at least this is not the first one like this), meaning it is swollen by the dampness, and thus difficult to open ((DC 15)), but the wood is not by any means rotten.
Ramious did not spot any traps right here and with A's help bushed open the door without a problem, to see yet another stone corridor (they are too quite the same here - 10 feet in height and (so far) in width, and have been carved out of and, in some places, seemingly melted through solid rock). However, right in the middle - about 30 feet ahead - the corridor changes abruptly to a spinning cylinder, apparently made of some light-colored metal. The inner surface rotates rapidly. It is painted in a dizzying black-and-white spiral pattern, and it glistens as if coated with some substance.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ramious pulls the door shut abruptly, leaving it slightly ajar but not enough to see the confusing pattern. He blinks a bit, "Oooh, didn't like that. Made me feel queasy."
He walks to the end of the hall and inspects the heavy door there, trying to determine if it's locked. "Hey, uh A, can you help me check this door out?" Investigation: 20
There is no lock, but what is clear here, the door a) is very thick, b) edges flanged so that they overlap the door jamb on the north side and thus can be opened only by pivoting them to the north. (You are on the sought side)
"So, if I have this right..." Leon says as he sits at the top of the stairs, and hears the report on the metal door. "The passage below has a strange thing blocking our way forward, which we would have to find a way past. The door up above has to be opened from the other side, not this one." He sighs. "Any suggestions?" He asks the others. he thinks as well, and suggests... "I can send my familiar on the far side of either block, and have it scout. We could try to slip something thin through the cracks in the metal door, and try to push the blockage away. We could simply try to get past the strange thing blocking our path below."
((Sorry, I was not clear - neither are they in the module description - I think you should be able to push-open it from this side. The main point is, the doors are designed in a way to be closed practically air-tight, there are no cracks whatsoever))
Leon's suggestions would stay the same. He could poof his familiar to the far side of the metal door if it is wished to send them there before we open the door.
Ramious makes an "after you" motion to Leon, "Good ideas, give 'em a shot! I say start with the metal door. Oh....but just before that...." He pushes the door to see if it opens.

It took a while (the door was truly heavy) but Ramious managed to open it. Behind - no more than 10ft away - you found another door, identical to the one that was opened.
On this side the already opened door had a heavy handle to open thing up.
Ramious shrugs to Leon. "It's not locked I suppose." Ramious glances at the doors uneasily. "What do you think. Water? Or Lava? Or....hot water. Or....just like toxic smoke." Then he takes out his crowbar, places it on the ground so that if the first door tries to close, it'll get stuck in the doorframe.....and walks over and pushes on the next door, trying to open it just a crack.

The door itself was not either hotter or havier than the previous one, though when it was crack-opened the floor covering water between doors that rushed in (not much, the level was close enough still) did feel warmer. No poisonous clouds choked Ramious either and should he risk to open it full, he would find yet another identical door at the end of yet another very short (10ft) passageway.
Come to think of it, it does look like a raw of floodgates... And the next door now definitely warmer itself.
(Bugs should have a bag of holding, he bought one prior to this outing.)
