THE HELLFIRE MULTI-ROCKET LAUNCHER HAS BEEN CONJURED IN THE FROST-BOG OF THE HALF-GORISTO FROGHEMOTH!
As the adrenaline of battle drains, you see the Onyx block which prevented retreat rise up into the ceiling.
Exits the way you came in, the clear blue portal, or the Stone Archway in the southwest part of the chamber, from which you can hear the sound of rushing water.
You are now free to move about the room. @Endless_Serpents you're clear to bring in a fresh character if/when you're ready.
"Go down, kick ass, and set yourselves up as gods, that's our Prime Directive!"
"The Hellfire What?" Sy says aloud "And conjured where? Anyone recognize any of those words?"
Sy looks around the room, and now they have three exits. The room they came from, a door that opened across from it, and a blue portal.
"So, going backwards won't help. We have the new door," he points off to the south west, "or the portal. Do we want to check that door out first or just head through the portal."
"I think both exits are new." Sy says. "The door to the south east was what shut behind us. South west is a new door, and I think this portal is the mud portal that Dang went through."
Water cascades down a slope, curving northwest before ending in a swirling pool in front of a pentagram around with 4 robed statues arranged around in the corners. The northwest statue holds a gilded box about the size of a book
"Go down, kick ass, and set yourselves up as gods, that's our Prime Directive!"
"If it's in that box, I'm going to be very disappointed in their naming." Sy replies.
He walks ahead, carefully stepping around the pentagram towards the northwest statue. Keeping a bit of distance, he attempts to pop it open with his rapier.
"Ok, well, this is clearly not the place with the rocket launcher." Sy says. "Though, why would there be an empty box here? Are we supposed to be putting something else inside of it? Have we found anything small and interesting that looks like a key or sorts?"
OK I assumed other people would have done things while I was ritualing, but y'all had time and NOW IT IS GONE :P
Has Lorian seen circles like this before? Would she know how to use it, or what it summons more specifically (or if it even summons something or does some other conjuration type thing)? Is a magic circle an Identify-able thing?
Identify Magic gives you are about as much info as you can get regarding the kind of magic. The circle is a simple pentagram, which could have several purposes
The coin clinks into the box, but there's also noise of it colliding against something else.
"Go down, kick ass, and set yourselves up as gods, that's our Prime Directive!"
"Wait, what?" Sy peers back in the box. He grabs the coin and pulls it out, putting it back away, then reaches his hand into the box and feels around. He doesn't see anything, but it wouldn't make sense that it was colliding if the box was empty.
Keeping his hand clasped, Sy pulls out whatever object he is holding. Holding it out in front of him, he frowns a little bit at having an invisible object. Then, with a flash of recognition, he reaches for the crystal that he had picked up prior, and pushes his senses through it instead.
Looking through the red crystal at my empty/not really empty hand.
As Sy's vision shifts to the starkly clear red of the Eye of Shadowsight, he can immediately tell this object is a tube, and there appears to be a scroll rolled up inside of it.
"Go down, kick ass, and set yourselves up as gods, that's our Prime Directive!"

Hearing a click, Sy collects the cubes marked 1 through 3 and places them in the Erinyes, Dracolisk, and Skeleton marked pillars.
1 in Erinyes
2 in Dracolisk
3 in Skeleton
That makes it @kime turn!

"I suggest the door. If we're going to try that" she gestures at the portal, "can we at least try throwing a rock or something into it first?"

Brygos pokes the Balor statue hopefully with a finger. "Any advice from you?"

...Or a 'half-goristo froggy mouth'? Or a frost bog, for that matter?"
Nothing wrong with a bit of floor art. Actually, this place isn't all that unpleasant, which has Brygos on edge for sure.

Finding no obvious trap that triggered when the lid opened, Sy looks inside the box.
Sy finds the box to be empty.

She's going to start ritual-casting Detect Magic. If there's time to finish, maybe it will reveal more about the statues, pentagram, box, etc...

Sy places the coin he found in the pyramid into the box and steps back.
The coin clinks into the box, but there's also noise of it colliding against something else.
"Wait, what?" Sy peers back in the box. He grabs the coin and pulls it out, putting it back away, then reaches his hand into the box and feels around. He doesn't see anything, but it wouldn't make sense that it was colliding if the box was empty.

Sy opens the tube and extracts the scroll carefully. "Well, look at that."
