Where I'm from, in the Feywild, there are tales of similar devices, but they're often regarded as daydreams and myths. To think, we might actually see one, right here in Dumathoin’s sanctum! It's a testament to the ingenuity and mastery of the dwarves."  He glances to and fro excitedly, imagining what advantages a luck-imbued gemstone could give him in games of cards and dice. He pushes the thought back, and tries to focus on the situation at hand.Turning his attention to the trap, Jack strokes the stubble on his chin thoughtfully. "Alright, let's see if we can figure this out without getting turned into charred zombie dust. Logrim, you mentioned those holes in the upper wall, and one of them brightened when Brydum stepped forward. Maybe we can use them to our advantage."He flutters up to get a closer look at the holes and then back down, addressing the group with giddy excitement. "How about this? Instead of risking ourselves, why don't we use the zombie bones? We can throw a pile of bones into the room ahead to see if they trigger the trap. Let the remains of our undead friends take the brunt. If it works, we can figure out a safer way to proceed." Jack wonders whether the trap would just reanimate the bones, but keeps this thought to himself, assuring himself that it's a gamble worth taking, after all.</blockquote>
