"So there's, er, just the one door. There was, ah, no lock or, ah, handle. Maybe the, er, rod could, er, help? I wish I had, er, a pick, and we could, ah, get it that way."

A quick recap of the door:
This heavy stone door is made from a single piece of marble. It shows obvious signs of the gnolls' attempts at forced entry. A complex series of delicately carved glyphs once adorned the center of the door but has now been partially destroyed by the gnolls' untender ministrations, and much of it has been rendered illegible.
Spending time (take 20) to decipher the script on the door, only a few words are still readable: the words "Death", "Doom", "Betrayal", and "Magus", all written in Hieratic.

"Nezrak, do you have any spells that could open this door or the little box Nars found?" Percy asks.
OOC: Player checks Nezrak's CS. No 'knock' spell.
IC: "Oh. Too bad. Well. Can't hurt to try. Nars. First you see if you can figure out which way it opens. Up or in or out or what."
OOC: OK. We have a jackel key, but no keyhole. We have two 'doors' we cannot open. I reread the majority of this thread trying to figure out the last riddle. Erekose, can you give me a hint and let me know if I missed something, or if we've yet to encounter the answer to this current predicament?

(ooc: sorry no hints in anything i've given besides the gnolls having battered at the door already. and really in the interests of passing the last door in the whole complex, you either have to beat it down or use a spell.)
(oog: wee thanks Patlin. I thought we were trying to keep this going in the new year and not awarding then till the games are all done)

Nars is unable to find anything particular about the door to help them out. He gives his best estimate of a weak point and gets out of the way to let Gorefoot and Rodimus use their own special "Open Lock" tactics.
