( Looking at the map linked earlier you know that you have checked all the rooms to the left of the long entry corridor and none of those on the right.)
Mal's scrounging instincts take over, and he picks up his lantern. "We do have a dark corridor to explore on this level before I'd feel comfortable turning our backs to this place."
( Ok. Someone is going to have to assist your blind priest and give me a general Stealth and Perception check as you make your way to whichever room you wish to check: just pick a number off the map. Or you can rest another hour until the blindness wears off but that has its own dangers.)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Mal pads ahead, quietly, peeking around corners and looking for danger of all sorts, now that he knows what evil lurks down here.
Stealth: 24 Perception: 12 (if at disadvantage because of light: 8)
Mal turns right and stops at the first unknown door, which leads into room 3. He listens for sound and does a cursory examination of the door. Perception (specifically of the door and for sounds beyond): 20
Once the group has caught up, Mal tries the door gingerly.
The door swings inward relatively easily revealing in the lamp light walls that are closely inscribed with countless small words, glyphs, and symbols. There are stacks of tablets and tomes in various scripts that seem to be glossaries and dictionaries. Some, some of you recognise as Sanskriti ( Primordial), Khmeri ( Celestial) and Kra ( Sylvan) but there are others here you have never seen before.
Scanning the texts and references Cinta quickly discovers that she knows this language.....the characters are slightly rougher and there are a number of variant expressions but it is definitely rooted in the language of spirits and she knows it well.
( Anyone that has a piece of writing that they wish to translate or that wishes to learn the very basics of a language they do not know it will take 1d4 hours to do so.
Anyone with experience with fencing stolen goods or with books and antiquities can estimate that altogether this collection of tomes/notes and treatises would be worth about 400 silver.)

"I don't think so, but Gajesh was better suited to the climb. Maybe he saw something I couldn't."

Cinta reconnects her arm.

"Stones and large dead snake... Very dark and hard to see without changing into a spider." Gajesh explains.

"Don't let me hold you back. Just... Someone help me walk." Rushdi reaches for someone's hand
Paladin - warforged - orange
Gajesh grabs the hand and puts it on the the harness he wears to his shield across his back to lead Rushdi along. "Stay close."

Mal hears nothing beyond the door, and the air at the cracks of the door smells very slightly of tannin and rice-paper.
Krikoris would be at the back of the group, keeping watch for anything following.
Stealth: 5
Perception: 6
Rushdi makes a stealth check? Twice in case of disadvantage 9 / 7

Krikoris looks around the room, then back at Rushdi, finally turning back to the rest, "No one try to read anything, right?"
Cinta leans to read the Kra.

Mal is already looking at the Sanskriti, piecing together words he learned early in his childhood.
