Upset he didn't see anything regarding this room, Owen shouts to Majakilar. "I'd get off that bridge! Other side might be your best choice!"

"What the... whoa!!" Majakilar flails his arms, trying to maintain his balance. "That was close huh Azten? Azten...? Where are... oh hey Azten, what are you doing down there?"
"Right! Other side, gotcha."
Majakilar rushes across the rest of the bridge to the other side.

Azten unsteadily comes to his feet and eagerly latches on to Gregor's hand. The large man quickly pulls him up to the "safe zone" where the rest of the group is huddled.
Majakilar dashes down the narrow bridge towards a large, metal door, covered in the same type of writing found throughout the cairn. Unlike the other end of the bridge, here the three foot-wide beam simply dead ends, without any kind of platform. Just as he reaches it and is about to breathe a sigh of relief, the same popping noises are heard from the walls all around them and two more iron balls target the unfortunate miner. The first one hits him square in the shoulder causing him to loose his balance. He topples over backwards off the beam and lands hard below, sending up a small wave of balls in a loud rumble. Immediately grabbing for his polearm which had slid out of his hand on impact, Majakilar rights himself and comes to his feet, almost falling over again as he sinks knee deep into the balls, which makes for very trecherous footing.
For the first time Majakilar is aware that there are other objects interspersed randomly among the iron balls. In the faint light of his companions' lantern and torch he can make out two pieces of ancient clothing with a few bones nestled among them only a few feet away.
Before he has a chance to investigate further, everyone hears a low rumbling coming from the center of the room, somewhere underneath the haphazard floor. Dozens of iron balls are pushed up from beneath as a bizarre creature pushes its way out. It has a serpent-like body at least eight feet in length, mottled grey-brown in color. Its head is a squirming mass of four squid-like tentacles surrounding a parrot-like beak. Eyes and ears are either missing or carefully hidden. It swings its head around as if getting a good view of the situation, then coils its body as it prepares to launch itself towards Majakilar. (OOC: First iron ball hits AC 21, hit! Majakilar Ref save: 1! Failure; Majakilar falls into the iron balls below on the far end of the bridge, about 50 feet from the rest of the party and takes 2 hp of damage)
