Message: <blockquote data-quote="DEFCON 1" data-source="post: 3994878" data-attributes="member: 7006">The group spreads out and begins looking around.  Ari's hunter eyes pick up no tracks in the rock, as he pretty much suspected he wouldn't.  So he cannot make a concrete determination when anyone else might have been here.Rogan goes over the basalt slab with a fine-toothed comb, but other than the semispherical depression in its center, there are no other compartments or doors in it.Jango wanders over to the three niches behind the slab and sees what are in two of them... an amulet and a scepter.  The amulet is an Eberron dragonshard attached to a finely wrought platinum chain.  The scepter bears an Eberron dragonshard grasped in a golden draconic claw.  The third niche is indeed empty.Brother Donovan and Jina wander over to the sarcophagus at the magma rift's edge and stand to look at it.  It looks to be solid, thick stone... the lid probably four inches thick.  The draconic imagery carved into it all seems to be of dragons fighting demons.Khalia attempts to piece together what they have here, and as the others pass on their info, they begin to reach some conclusions.  Although there are no tracks to verify anyone has been here before... both the depression in the slab and one of the niches are empty.  If Sur'Kil was convinced that the draconic artifact Aridarastrixsauriv, the Dragon's Eye, was stored here in this location for safekeeping, everything should still be here (unless they are fabulously well-hidden).  The fact that some things aren't here obviously (like whatever was presumably in the third niche) leads one to believe that if the depression and the third niche held something at some point, but do not anymore... it means someone or some group must have come here before you at some point in history.As the group stands around and considers their options, Khalia is reminded by herself that they do have the Sending Stone to get in touch with the silver dragon if that is something they want to do.<a href="http://img86.imageshack.us/my.php?image=a14investigaterx2.png" target="_blank"><img src="http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/5251/a14investigaterx2.th.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a></blockquote>
