Mordekii discovers that the ring is magical, but he cannot discern its properties.
The man carries in a small pouch, a stone that has a face carved into it.

Devious serpent folk devoid of compassion, yuan-ti manipulate other creatures by arousing their doubts, evoking their fears, and elevating and crushing their hopes. From remote temples in jungles, swamps, and deserts, the yuan-ti plot to supplant and dominate all other races and to make themselves gods.

Gwythian recognizes the ring as a ring of feather falling. The stone is obviously magical and the face appears to be a plain, generic face of no one in particular.

OOC: I have to be honest but I feel that you are just waiting at the bottom of an unexplored tower as if waiting for another wave of monsters to come to you. The story is not moving forward.

"Hm. This ring is a ring of feather falling and might come in handy, should we decide to explore the upper reaches of the tower."

"On the second floor, tables make up the borders of the room. A large crack in the wall is open to the jungle below. On the tables are sets of daggers and headless snake corpses."

On the tables, you find black obsidian stones with infernal runes. Mordekii can tell they have been used in summoning rituals. The daggers are adamantine, but otherwise unmagical. The spiral staircase ends here, but a ladder continues to the third floor.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"ahhh....guys? i think these daggers are made of adamantine...."
Mordekii is holding one of the daggers up in the light with his mouth hanging open.
"these must be worth a small fortune!"
Mordekii takes the weapon in hand and drives the point into one of the Obsidian stones: 19 to hit
"we should probably take these stones. they are used to summon infernal creatures and we don't want them being used again. we could throw them overboard when we are back out to sea."
[how many daggers are there? 2? also how large are the stone?]

There are five daggers total. Each one has a different gem in its hilt (emerald, ruby, sapphire, amethysts, and topaz). The stones are about the size of pebbles.

Mordekii still talking to Gwythian.
"I'm fairly sure its a magical ring, but i cant tell what it does or if it's dangerous."
Modekii opens the pouch and gingerly withdraws the stone face and examines it to see if he knows anything about it.
History check to recognise the stone/face: 20
Arcana check to see if its magical at all: 20
"hmm....Hey guys take a look at this. what do you think it is?"

Kap will stand still, wrapping one hand around the other wrist and tapping it with their fingers, a bit bored.

Mordekii nods at Gwythian.
"yeah that sound useful and even safe"
Mordekii turns to Durkslag and Kap and says
"well this wasn't what I was hoping, for a first encounter with a new far away people, but I would like to know what's going on."
as Durkslag bounds up the stairs, Mordekii says to Kap.
"lets go unravel this mystery!"
with a slightly wicked grin, Mordekii runs after Durkslag.

Mordekii follows Durkslag to the "Window" and admires the view.
"Wow! Your so lucky Deryck!"
Mordekii then turns to the tables and begins to investigate.
