Lenya thinks the party would have difficulty lifting the gem, although the troll might be strong enough to push it or drag it.
Raner tries to remember what this might be, but he never paid much attention to what the priests of Moradin do (0 ranks in Knowledge Religion).
Craven mentions it might be a container of some sort.
After hearing that comment, Raner adds he has seen much smaller containers of liquid that you could hold in your hand that looked something like this.

The door is locked.
Kerwyn discovers glyphs on the door that might have been a Glyph of Warding, but it has been discharged by the orcs. Lenya does not detect magic on the door. Kerwyn and Toriah pronounce the door safe to open. Kerwyn and Toriah unlock and open the door.
Sixty feet long and forty feet wide, this cross-shaped room is quiet. The walls are covered in silver and dark blue draperies. In the center of the room is a long stone pedestal, 10 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 2 1/2 feet tall. The tope of this pedestal is padded, dark blue velvet. Resting atop this padded surface are six jeweled, silver spheres that look highly valuable.
Craven does not detect any evil.
Lenya detects magic. She detects a faint magical aura on the floor in front of the party, a moderate transmutation aura on the pedestal, another moderate aura on the pedestal, and a moderate aura on each of the six spheres.
Raner vaguely recollects hearing about ruby-encrusted silver spheres called Hammerspheres used in battle by followers of Moradin. He does not remember how they are used or anything else about them.

Kerwyn and Toriah proceed cautiously towards the Hammerspheres.
Kerwyn searches carefully (taking 20) and notices magical writing on the floor (the faint aura Lenya detected) and recognizes it as another glyph of warding. The party avoids stepping on the glyph.
Kerwyn, Toriah, and the rest of the party reach the hammerspheres.
Kerwyn searches the pedestal carefully and discovers a magical spell on the pedestal. Possibly a magical trap. Kerwyn attempts to disarm the trap (2+13= failed, disable device failed by 5 or more, springing the magical trap) by carefully moving a hammersphere. Kerwyn's body undergoes a remarkable tranformation into a hill dwarf (fort save 9+5=14 failure). Kerwyn feels a strong coercion to yell out, "None but the followers of Moradin may take the hammerspheres", but he manages to resist it (will save 16+5=21 pass).
After the transformation, the new Kerwyn thinks he can remove the hammerspheres from the pedestal.
