As Danica looks over the items, the rest of the party looks down the circular corridor. It is rather large (about 18 feet in diameter) and may be possible to walk down, though there is a good chance one might lose their balance and slide down the smoothed surface. The degradation is sharp, and you estimate somewhere within a 30% angle. The tunnel goes on for more than 150 feet before stopping in another chamber, but you are unable to see what may be inside due to the limits of your vision as well as the angle of the tunnel.

As you cast your spell, you find that the ring radiates with a moderate transmutation. You also sense that the ring involves the water element, but past that you cannot discern its purpose at this time. Further experimentation or examination may prove helpful at a later time.
Strangely, you also detect magic from the small garnet, and as you twirl it in your hands you realize that the different facets have small, magical letters on the surface that seem to broaden before your eyes as you focus upon them. No one else seems to notice them except you, as your eyes are sensitive to magic at the moment. You have the sense that if you cast read magic upon the gem that you would find this to be a small spellbook! Surely these winged elves could do amazing things with crystals and gems. Perhaps this is not very useful to a sorceress, but it is still a valuable find.
