Rhogar lets out a low hiss of frustration, or started to before Gorrah's nipping at his dorsal turned it soft cry of pain. "What was that for?" He asked heatedly of the Psuedodragon. In response, she points with her stinger at the door and struggling pair. "Ah.. *ahem*... Right. Perhaps me and Mr. Rekuburk here might have a crack at it?"As Rhogar is politely making his way closer to the door presumably alongside the half-orc, he utters an arcane word in draconic and pats Rekuburk on the shoulder. "Shall we then, my friend?"He grinned, then turning to the door, Rhogar dug in and made ready to help Rekuberk in getting the door open.

Cracking his knuckles and flexing his arms Rekuburk is determined to open the door. With the help of Rhogar the heavy door slowly opens. The doors are 25-foot-high, 8-foot-wide, 2½-foot-thick slab of chiseled ice with crude handles. In place of hinges, a door has thick, cylindrical pins of ice that rest in holes at the top and bottom edges of the door’s frame.
Looking inside the room you see a withered old frost giant leaning heavily on a greataxe. He sits in front of a tall door in the far wall. The giant wooden stool upon which he sits creaks under his weight as he stares at you with cloudy eyes.
Kazri raises her hand for everyone to hold. She slowly approaches the Frost Giant, and lightly touches him with her shield. Just to check if he's alive.

Rhogar cannot help but suck in a breath upon laying eyes on the giant. Even Gorrah, brave to the point of being cocky at times, reeled back in surprise seeing the giant. Yet between Kazri's gesture and the lack of immediate words from the giant, the two are given pause long enough to start studying the giant from afar. While not entirely convinced of its death, the cloudy eyes did lead to the Dragonborn narrowing his eyes in suspicion. The psuedodragon, on the other hand, sent the image of the others of the giant falling over a clear obstacle of some kind, followed by feelings of curiosity and confusion.

Krom nods to Kazri as she approaches the giant. The dwarf, hammer and shield at the ready, stands at the entrance of the room looking intently at the giant. "He may be dead, but it could still be a menace." thinks Krom. "It's better to be prepared."
Chill remains outside to the north on watch. He trusted his companions to handle whatever was in the room. If his specific skills were needed they would let him know.
As the others hang back Kazri slowly approaches the giant. As she gets within 10 feet of him he seems to notice her as those cloudy eyes look down at her, whereupon he grips his weapon tightly, stumbles to his feet, and says (in Giant), “Bàs, coinnichidh sinn mu dheireadh!”

Rhogar reflexively snaps Vixix' horn forward while shifting into a combat ready stance. "Kazri?"He questions without taking his eyes off the giant. "Should we be concerned?"The Dragonborn adds while Gorrah plainly opts to clamor her way from hood to backpack, hoping for far greater protection against whatever the giant might yet throw at her soon to be maybe less fortunate cohorts.

Krom, holding his shield in front of him, takes a couple of steps inside the room. "Lass, try to talk to him. Thanks to Moradin's blessing he can understand you."
"We mean you no harm." Says Kazri with her hands up. "We are looking for the Codicil of White." She waits for the Giant's reaction.

The frost giant looks to be old, very old as he squints down at you. "Stad? Carson a stad mi? Cò thusa a tha ag iarraidh a ’Chòd? Inns dhomh gu soilleir agus iarr do fhreagairtean ann am batal!"
He hefts his axe and looks ready to strike.
For those who speak giant
Halt? Why do I halt? Who are you that asks for the Codical? Tell me plainly and seek your answers in battle!
Rekuberk will rest his hand on his sword, ready to draw it if the giant makes a move to attack. If he seems to not he hostile he will only then lower his hand.

"We are here for the Codical for we seek an audience with the Frostmaiden herself." Kazri will motion to her companions to stand down for now. She tosses her shield to the side, and holds the Dragonslayer Sword with both hands. "Let it be known that this sword has slayed a dragon, and we are not here to fight you." (Kazri will take a defensive stance.)

Chill returns from his quick scouting mission and does indeed report back what he had seen.
"All clear from what I can tell. I doubt this place is as uninhabited as it seems but so far so good."
After reporting in he takes up a position just north of the door and watches the open doorways to the north for trouble.
While doing so he slips the hood of his cloak over his head so he can blend in with the darkness easily if needed.
Rekuberk nods as he moves forward and begins to push against it quickly with all of the strength he can muster.

The frost giant lowers his axe and Kazri can see that he is tired.
"Bhiodh e na urram a bhith a ’bàsachadh le leithid de lann. Deònaich dhomh bàs urramach agus innsidh mi dhut càite am faigh thu a ’Chòd"
The giant's words:
It would be an honor to die by such a blade. Grant me an honorable death and I will tell you where to find the codical.
