Another voice, deeper and louder, joins in. After a short, but seemingly heated debate, all the voices grow silent once more.Inside, the trapdoor could be opened in the meantime, after some trying around and Dirtan frantically trying to recall, what he has been teached, while being distracted by what is going on outside of the temple.“Oh, excellent! Those will hopefully help us get out of here alive!” The gnome's voice sounds cheerful and full of hope.Under the trapdoor, only a small stash could be found, but it contains more than a dozen leather scroll cases, only slightly worn from the decades of rest in their well-hidden place. Looking through them, the adventurers discover a total of fifteen scrolls, most likely magical in nature.When the secret lid in the pillar, that Kylest had discovered, slides away, Dirtan's eyes gleam in expectation, but when only weapons are found inside, he starts to get nervous.“They must be here. They must be!” He says.There are a number of gnome-sized weapons inside the fairly tall stash, a dagger, a handaxe, and a short sword, as well as a light mace, a morningstar, a spear, a scimitar and a warhammer made for human-sized wielders. They all show no signs of wear and are of excellent quality.Aylor then rejoins the rest and tells them, that she has found something in an alcove in the eastern transept.“Forsooth! They are still here, after all the time. The elders were right! They were right!” Dirtan cheers, as the third stash is opened.What he is speaking of must be the seven gold and silver statuettes, depicting gnomes in regal poses with crowns sitting on their heads, likely some ancient gnomish kings. In addition, the stash contains a holy symbol of Ilmater, humbly made from wood and tin.“The holy symbol of Narteflun!” Dirtan comments the finding, his voice full of respect.The Ilmatari does not seem to pay much attention to the four potions, the four wand and the small pouch, that also reside inside the alcove, however.</blockquote>
