The Wayfarer's Inn

Gaderon simply looks at it. Then frowns and shakes his head...

"I have not memorised that spell this day... Perhaps one of the others might have done so? My focus was elsewhere this morning..."

Sol says "Let me try. He will use the power of his sword, Tizona, to cast a detect magic spell on the coffer.

The sword detects a noticeable magical aura from inside the coffer. The coffer itself is not magical.

Speaking to Elkhan and the group, Sol says "The contents of the coffer seem to be magical. But, I can't tell more than that." Sol will do the same test on the second coffer (there were two, right?).

Tizona detects a magical content within the second coffer as well.

Sol continues speaking "The other coffer appears to be the same as the first. These coffers seem to have been important to Rahotep or they would not be here. While I don't want to leave them, at the same time, unless we have a real need to see the contents, why done we just place them in a bag of holding until we get out of here. Perhaps we can present them as a gift to the archpriest Shemsi Neteru-f when we finish our quest...."

"All right. I can put them in my bag of holding for now. That sounds fair. I'll need help though, Sol." She hands the coffer she is holding to Sol and opnes her bag of holding so he can put it in. Then they repeat the same procedure for the other one.

"How about we move on. I don't think there's anything else of interest in here."

While they are stowing the boxes, Ahi will take one last look at the altar in the middle. I don't think my Amulet is still working at this point, but I want to do visual, up close (no touching) check to ensure that it's just that altar and solid stone and nothing else is amiss. Then Ahi will agree with leaving this evil room.

Kherim waits patiently while the others debate the fate of the coffers.

Gaderon looks at them all and then back at the main statue of the vile Rahotep...

"If you all will stand back? I wish to do something first!"

Gaderon grabs his spell book and begins to sort out a page in it, taking several small containers from his robe pockets. Looking up he pauses to see if the others are moving back from him before proceeding furhter.
