Luckily for Alois, the squeeze into the mound's chamber is quickly navigated and the whole group stands in the dark room.
Lizt is able to use a chunk of stone to excavate the edges of the metal. It appears to be attached to a larger object and with a bit more work discovers wood made soft by dampness. To her eye it looks like the top of a chest banded in bronze. Fully excavating the chest would take a lot of work and a lot of time but the decayed wood might be able to be broken away much easier than the digging work.
