The door lifts upward by the combined strength of Gertrude and Kurma, granting access to the room behind.
Six glass cauldrons brimming with humanoid bones line the walls of this tomb, at the center of which stands an ancient chariot bearing a bronze sarcophagus with treasure strewn atop it. Paintings on the chariot's body show a tall bird with a long, sharp beak. On the south wall, a bronze shield bears the embossed image of a Chultan warrior carrying a spear, below an inscription that reads, "Bow before no one." Four bronze statues stand on pedestals to either side of the shield. They depict Chultan warriors: one holding a sword, two with spears, and one missing its face.
Gertrude walks briskly back into the room where the golem lies and collects her throwing axes and javelins.
Then she speaks with Unkh. "You inhabited my body. What is the purpose of this? Would you like me to carry you out of this tomb? Is there a way to set you 'free'? I assume your spirit is linked to this beautiful robe?"
When returning to the new room that the group just found, Gertrude makes sure that the heavy door is propped open. Then she converses with Unkh again. "We have just opened a new room. There is a chariot with a sarcophagus on it. It is adorned with a tall bird with a sharp beak. Is this another trickster god's tomb?"

Unkh: "That is Papazotl's resting place. I think..."
Isabella will move towards the sarcophagus and sketch out the design of it. As she’s drawing she will try to recall any history to it. After that she will check it out for traps. “These are worth some golds, give me a minute and I’ll check out the sarcophagus.”

"When evening came, a wily eblis stepped from his reed hut. He didn't like the Omuans, but without them, he'd have no one to play his tricks on. The eblis sent a marsh frog to reason with Ubtao, but the frog was angry and decided to wrestle the god instead. This amused Ubtao, so he gave the frog tentacles to make it stronger. When Kubazan the frogemoth returned to Papazotl the eblis, he chased Papazotl into the swamp with his new tentacles."

To Isabella, this is the sarcophagus of a master chef.
"Well this is interesting, I think this is a sarcophagus of a.... chef?" Scratching her head "Well it isn't traps but who know to for sure. Should we open it?" Isabella will go and pick up the gold torch , three gold cups , Golden cloak pins, and the fancy amulet are strewn atop the sarcophagus.

As soon as Isabella picks up the first object on the sarcophagus, a brittle sound followed by rubbing of bones comes from each of the cauldrons.
A skeleton emerges out of each of them. These don't seem the weak undead creature everyone knows. The bones are engraved with runes, the eye sockets filled with hatred...
