Dungeon Raiders: The Wolf's Den

You carefully remove the skeleton's hands from the sword, just in case there are more traps or hidden dangers, but luckily this task this time seemed surprisingly easy. The blackened longsword is now yours.
Bartleby offers it to any of the others, who might want to use such a weapon. If none takes it, he stores it in his pack.

Very short recap...
You have investigated seemingly all locales of these catacombs, but you have found one possible way further, through the trapdoor on the ceiling at the end of the corridor. You have looted the tombs and corpses for some jewelry and fancy-crafted weaponry, but no major treasure. To get to this point, you've wiped out the hobgoblins, the stirges, the ghouls, the giant centipedes, and the zombies in the room with the grim statue (which is where you are standing now), but none of these monsters could match 'the' monster of legend, if it ever existed.
[OoC: it's been a long time since the beginning of the game, I suggest you go take a quick read at the 1st post in the 1st page to recall what the adventure is all about... I am starting to forget it too! ]
Overall, you have been in this dungeon for several hours... it was after sunset when you entered, so you can estimate it's probably very early morning right now.
Most recently, you have managed to unlock the last room and found the very tomb of Lord Wolf himself. After a quick survey of the room, your newly acquired comrade Swift fell victim of another cursed scroll and turned back again into a vermin form, but you immediately figured out to break the spell in the same way as before, by burning the scroll. You had to evacuate the room because of the smoke, but Bartleby managed to go back briefly and secure the black sword of Lord Wolf, which is now in his possession.
Anyway... as Bartleby rushed in and out to grab the sword, covering his eyes to protect them from the acrid smoke, and perhaps coughing a bit, he seems to catch a glimpse of the shadow of someone or something peeking into the grim statue room from the outer corridor, but when he instinctively rubs his eyes and looks better, the shadow is gone...

(OOC:also, we think we know the shield is magic (Bartleby's been using it, but I don't remember if we've been told of specific effects), and Bartleby is happy to let anyone try out the sword to discover if the same is true for it.)
IC:
Bartleby blinks, and thinks he has missed something. "Wait! Was that something in the shadows?"
