The Wayfarer's Inn

The plinth still stands on its place, not having moved by the fall of the statue. Its upper surface is now clearly visible, but shows nothing of interest.

Kherim smiles.
"Apt remark, Sol. Indeed..."

Then he tries to divine anything in the wall that might correspond to the secret door that Gaderon found earlier. He also takes a look around to understand if anything was hidden inside the statue that may have been revealed now that it is destroyed. Finally, he checks to see (only seeing) what happened to the movable pointer.

(OOC: so, these are all cursory glances. A bit of an explanation please: how was the wheel destroyed? the engravings marred? the pointer displaced? are there still inscriptions standing?)

The wall behind the statue shows nothing that hints at a secret door at first glance. A cursory look also shows nothing that might have been hidden inside the statue. The zodiac wheel is cracked in several places, bits and pieces of the coloring and the inlaid stone havebroken off. Besides being dented and smashed, the pointer is also broken in one place.

Sol looks around and says "So, was the collapse of the statue the trap we detected in the statue earlier? And just where is that trap door we detected earlier?"

Eilkhan answers what she thinks happened to Sol. "I think that the statue falling is due mostly in part to removing the rod, not some elaborate trap. As for the trap door, let me look again."

"Could the plynth be movable, and the secret door beneath it?", Kherim ventures. Then he adds, shrugging
"Anyway, if the falling was not the trap in the statue, I guess at any rate the trap must be as much made into pieces as its former container".

How long is the broken pointer? Does it seem somehow useful? What was it made of?

OOC: Just to make this clear: What Gaderon detected wasn't a trap door, but a secret door. So if Eilkhan wants to search for it, I need to know where exactly.

The pointer is made of brass that has obviously become fragile with age. The two pieces are about 20 and 35 inches long, and they really don't look as if they're useful any longer.

Eilkhan methodically searches the wall behind the plinth for secret doors, but she finds nothing that hints at the existence of one.

Now Eilkhan will look under and try to find the door Gaderon detected.
