Brunella, eyes wide at the golden piles of treasure, looks around to see if there are any weapons, jewelry of note, items, or anything other than coins.
After meditating a few minutes, Kurma says: "Hummm...I think this is too good to be true. The treasure gives away some illusion aura, this is probably not real gold. I would suggest to leave it here... For the door, I feel some divination aura. Inete this is your domain, any idea ?"

Putting on his sad mask "It's not real..." He just set down what ever he grabbed and leaves "Well I'm the poorest I'll be out." He mumbles to himself how he's tired of this crap and waits outside with the dino.

"Richest?" Brunella shrugs. "We have little of material wealth. But maybe it is asking about richness of spirit or character? Otherwise, there is the magic jug, and a few other items we have found."

"Interesting... Does that mean we need to leave some gold here as well... We are getting poorer and poorer in this quest." Kurma will then go read the next phrase. History Check: 5

While Inete and Kurma try to figure out the writing, Gertrude stands behind them wondering about the carving of the fighting creatures, the closed door, the fake treasure and what it all means. (History Check) 20
Gertrude might not be a consumed historian, but she knows how puzzles work. She decipher the story of the trickster god Nangnang.
- At noon, a brave kamadan hopped down from her rock. She saw the evil in the Omuans’ hearts and decided to lance it like a troublesome boil. The kamadan fashioned a holy spear, but she left it by the riverbank and a crafty grung stole it. In her rage, Shagambi the kamadan forgot all about the Omuans and chased Nangnang the grung forever across the sky. -
Nangnang seems to be just to care about shiny things. The treasure in the shrine, although fake, is shiny.
Gertrude keeps staring. She hears Kurma's coins clink on the floor. But nothing happens.
Then she starts bringing some of the fake gold and pile it on top of the frog-creature that is engraved in the floor. Expectantly she looks at the door.
"Well done Gertrude !". Kurma picks up his gold and the orb and have a peak inside the room. He scans the area and confirms he can sense only magic fro the cube, no other magical mechanism. " Felix, I let you pick up the cube"

There seems to be only gold for the most part. Some jewellery, but no peculiar item, no weapon.
“This is a lot of money”... Still curious, Kurma casts detect magic

The spell reveals an aura of illusion around the treasure (all of it) and an aura of divination on the stone door.

For a moment, the only sound in the shrine is the echo of the coins falling on the stone floor.
Nothing else happens.
Gertrude keeps staring. She hears Kurma's coins clink on the floor. But nothing happens.
Then she starts bringing some of the fake gold and pile it on top of the frog-creature that is engraved in the floor. Expectantly she looks at the door.
The doors swing open as soon as Gertrude approves with the fake gold.
In the middle of this dusty room, a stone cube rests on a pedestal carved and painted to resemble a squat, humanoid frog.
Kurma detects the usual abjuration magic of the puzzle cube.
"Well done Gertrude !". Kurma picks up his gold and the orb and have a peak inside the room.
He scans the area and confirms he can sense only magic fro the cube, no other magical mechanism. " Felix, I let you pick up the cube"

Felix sulks back and checks for traps.

If there is nothing trapped he will grab it.
