Brunella wakes from her nap, feeling better. She has focused and recovered from her minor injuries (11 hp recovered from use of hit die). She looks at Gertrude swinging her new weapon approvingly. It is clear that the Goliath is skilled with the staff, and that she will be a force to be reckoned with.

In the corner Isabella mutters and performs hand gestures. After nothing happens she will stand seeing the others ready "What are you looking at Kurma?"

Studying the coffin does she know what it's use could have been due to the Archaeologist background?

 Isabella knows that coffins are used to keep a corpse inside. Usually, that corpse belonged to someone of importance, a sovereign, or prince or a queen. The coffin should typically remind or tell those who visit it of the grandeur of the person who it is dedicated to. The fact that no discernible name or lore is around strikes Isabella as weird.

Ah yes. As legends go, coffins are used by mummies or vampires.

 "Kurma... I think you should leave it alone. Looking at it there's no name, description or anything. Usually these sarcophagus are only for royalty or heros... no name usually means trouble."

“To be honest, that’s what I’m afraid. I fear something undead, terrible, is in there. Waiting for the night to arrive”. Kurma points to the ceiling where some sunlight still shine.

”we could let it be, but I’m afraid it will open tonight. Or.... we could try to open it now and fight any undead in the sunlight.”

Kurma hesitates: “maybe you’re right, let’s not wake up a demon. This Tomb is getting on my nerve”

“To be honest, that’s what I’m afraid. I fear something undead, terrible, is in there. Waiting for the night to arrive”. Kurma points to the ceiling where some sunlight still shine.

”we could let it be, but I’m afraid it will open tonight. Or.... we could try to open it now and fight any undead in the sunlight.”

Kurma hesitates: “maybe you’re right, let’s not wake up a demon. This Tomb is getting on my nerve”

 "Well this is the tomb of the nine trickster gods. Tell me have you found any artifacts or totems?" Isabella comes closer to Kurma and his party. 

“Artefacts? Not at all. I am not sure of what you are referring to...”

"I mean on your adventure? I  am a archeologist, so I am always trying to discover something new." Isabella giggles.

"Oh.... well...I have plenty of old books we got from a Medusa. I'm planning to bring them to a great library. I heard there was one close to Baldur's Gate".

"Let see.... I have also this mace. I named it Knowledge. And I have this Orb that tell me the time. Nothing amazing, though..."

Brunella overhears the Tortle talking about the contents of the coffin. "I agree with Kurma's instinct. The light could help us. Better to face whatever is there now, while we are ready, while there is light. Gertrude also has her new weapon. I agree to open the coffin."

Gertrude looks at Brunella, and nods approvingly, pointing to her staff. "I'd like to give this a swing! Let's open this box!"

"Well if that is what you want... Let us start." She grabs her shield of her back. She lifts her right hand and with a slight gesture rips a hole in reality. She places her hand inside and pulls out a sword with a snake on the hilt and the blade has a slight upward curve.

"You all ready?" Her once innocent demeanor gone replaced with a combatant ready to fight.

Oniss looks at the box and suggest trying the parties muscle and reported he can try a spell to unlock it but reminded those his magic may be unstable. 

"Let's do this.  What's the worst that can happen?  Never mind.  Don't answer that."

The lid comes off the coffin quite easily. Inside...

The inside of the coffin is empty. The inner side of the lid has a plaque with a writing in Common:

"Drown your sorrows."

A dull sound echoes in the room as a stone block starts coming down from the ceiling of the hallway. In a handful of seconds, it will seal the entrance.

This must be the wine trap. "We'd better run!" cries out Brunella. She doesn't want to be trapped inside to die. She makes a sprint for the door.

[LOL] 

"Well knew that would happen!" Isabella will bolt towards the exit. 

“A trap... again ! Let’s move !”
Kurma rushes to the door. Ready to block it if needed.

OOC: is there anything in here that is NOT a trap ??????

Sighing and then taking off at a run for the exit, Irommek utters a string of curses into his beard that would make a sailor blush.

 ...even the traps are trapped.

Oniss uncertain what to do follows the party towards the doorway.
