Liquid silvery fire in the "rivers" seemed to be sustained by the preserving magic of the room (you can not see it, but smells would not be so strong and still recognizable after centuries in the normal atmosphere).

Bernard checked out the last pyramid - it seemed as innocent as the first one. The lid was a bit hard to open, but he managed and now was staring inside yet another chest full of treasure - mix of silver, jade, coral made a lovely picture.
Alyssa thought she had lifted some weight from her shoulders, but more seemed to befall her. She felt a wave of sluggishness hit her. Maybe she was just missing the fresh air. The elf would finish her notes. She'd look over the three absorbed in doing their own duties and she'd smile. Leaving them to finish their discoveries and looting, she'd slink off down the hallway back to the cat room where the air might feel cleaner.
Taking her time, Alyssa would pad around the room to give her limbs a bit of a stretch. They were feeling a little stiff. She'd take another casual look around as she went, pointing out all the things to herself that she's already noted. There were plenty of rooms to choose from. But... "Oh right!" The elf would make her way back over to the cat that had the catch in it's eye. She'd take another look. I wonder how these things work anyways... She'd try working the catch.

Ramious, always secretly aware of Alyssa’s location sees her slip away from the room. After a moment he makes a “tsss tsss” noise to get Leon’s attention then heads after the girl quietly.

and loses his footing and falls into the room unceremoniously. He looks down at the floor that has betrayed him and then stands up, blushing. “It’s a dangerous place to wander off on your own.”
"Says the tiefling where trouble and danger befalls him wherever he goes." Alyssa would try to stifle her giggle, but would let out a snort over her own pun. "And I've been fine. Barely even a scratch." She'd wink. "Okay so maybe I may have lost my sense of smell. Might not be a bad thing." She'd tease.
Bernard was left standing near the pyramid number three, opened and full of treasure contemplating whether or not to take it. Pyramid number two remained closed after the reveal of some double trap in it.
Leon finished his identification and remains by the coffin in the center of the room.
Ramious followed Alyssa back to the cat room and witnessed her pressing the catch in the eye of the tiger on the wall. Even weakened, Alyssa easily released the catch and (probably unsurprisingly) the part of the wall just next to the tiger head slowly moved to the side, filling the room with a heavy grating sound of moving rocks - and the light! There is a passage behind that secret door. The walls of the passage glow magenta, bathing the corridor - and now part of the cat room - with a ghastly hue.
The magenta glow would catch Alyssa's eyes and she'd look a bit mesmerized with curiosity. She'd glide over, drawn to the passageways secret light. The elf would stand before it the doorway to peer down it, but would not pass the threshold. Some guilt already tugged at her for revealing the passageway while the others were still next door. There was no haste to move on without anyone else. Content where she stood, Alyssa would hold her hands behind her back as she'd take a peek, resisting the urge to lean forward. She may rock up on her tip toes once or twice.
Alyssa did not need to step in to see - the corridor was long, but well lit and straight.
After fifteen feet, the floor drops away to a pit that fills the hallway ahead. From her position it is hard to tell exactly the measurements, but the pit seems to be over twenty feet deep. Large, spidery bushes with thorny stems, white leaves, and enormous yellow blossoms grow across its bottom.
Five feet beyond the nearest edge of the pit is a bronze bar, set level with the floor and embedded in the pit walls to either side. Farther out over the pit can be seen other similar bronze rungs, set at five-foot intervals. On the floor by the edge of the pit is a scattering of broken, rotting wooden planks.

"Suppose I should have a look..." Leon says, glancing to the one structure they had not been able to open so far. He moves in and tries to disarm the second trap with his thieve's tools... Thieve's tool check: 19
Bernard will scoop what treasure he can and then hurry himself to catch up with the others. As he's scooping, he can't help but think of what he could invest it all in.
Double trap is a difficult thing to disarm and Leon had to really concentrate on the task, lost to the surrounding for a good ten minutes.
Bernard's "scooping" meanwhile, did not go exactly as planned. That is what the trap was waiting for - when his hand was thrust into the treasure, a mechanical vise in the wall of the chest grabbed the limb within.
Bernard - DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or become grappled by the device (escape DC 15). If he is grappled - DC 15 Constitution saving throw.
Alyssa’s eyes would slightly narrow when she’d spot the thorny vine with white leaves and a large yellow flower. It was as if a little warning flag went up. Are thy those carnivorous flowers mum told me about that one time? She’d try to identify it from where she stood.

Though they might appear harmless at first, thorns, pale color, secret on the blossoms, the very place those lovelies grow - all screams "carnivore". Alyssa even remembered the name - "thorn slingers". At any rate, not something one would want to make a bouquet with (or to be anywhere near it).

Bernard felt several needles pierced his skin (6damage) and his hand felt as if it was injected with fire. (Take half of 17 poison damage) Bernard is now poisoned
After taking out a few treasure pieces he could see both - the mechanical vise and the needles, that he now should remove (they seem to be breakable) to free himself.
The price of his imprisonment was nine coin necklaces (360 sp each as we remember), eight bracelets of jade beads (15 gp apiece), four small figurines of jade and coral (25 gp each), and five rings carved of jade and alabaster (10 gp each)
Bernard yelped as the trap sprung and the poison seeped into him. He broke a piece of the trap off and finished grabbing the rest of the treasure before he made his way tk the others. As he started to move about he felt a little hot and a little burning sensation at his hand.
Finally making it by the others he says, "I got the treasure... but it got me." He holds up his bloody hand. "I think it was poisoned as I'm feeling a little warm."
Ramious pushes off the wall he's been leaning against while he hangs out with Alyssa when he hears Bernard coming. "Where's Leon? Did you leave him behind in the metal room?" Ramious looks a little annoyed, but then notices Bernard's stumbling walk. "Oh, geez man, maybe you did get poisoned." He fishes an elixir out of his bag, "Alyssa, if you can't help him, and if he looks to be getting real bad, give him this....otherwise hopefully just a bit of time will let the poison work its way out of his system....I'm going to check on Leon..." (He hands her an Elixir of Health.)
He rushes back to the other room to make sure Leon is ok.
Leon is alive, though still busy - first trap does not seem to be that complicated, but the second one requires some work. Still, five more minutes and he can be done.
Bernard, a little sweaty, takes a pull of water. "I'll.. I'll be able to handle this tomorrow. I've got a spell that can help, just can't access it now..." He sways a little and slumps against a wall.

Did Bernard get into the other pyramid?
((Sorry! Forgot to add))
